OpenNebulaConf 2018 is around the corner. The event will be hold in Amsterdam next Monday and Tuesday 12-13 of November. One of our customers, the Université Catholique de Louvain (UCLouvain) will present there their experience with UDS Enterprise and OpenNebula as key components of their desktop virtualization infrastructure to provide VDI access to their 37,000 students.
Frederic Malengreau, Support Manager at UCLouvain, will be the speaker at the conference, and he will explain why the IT team at this university wanted “to adopt BYOD to be able to give students the opportunity to use their own devices to access the same software they use in the standard computer classrooms anytime and from anywhere”.
A group of students at Hewlett-Woodmere public school in New York are preparing for First Tech Challenge (FTC) using the UDS Enterprise VDI & vApp connection broker. 23 elementary-school students, ages 8-10, are being taught by the Team Roboboogie to design, build, program, and operate robots to compete in a head-to-head challenge in an alliance format with students from other schools around the world.
The students of Systems and Computer Engineering and the Computer Science Degree of the Universidad Tecnológica of El Salvador (UTEC) are using the UDS Enterprise connection broker in the last stage of their studies to learn how to deploy and manage virtual desktops and applications. “I chose UDS Enterprise because of the large number of hypervisors it supports, I think it is very important that future professionals are aware of all the alternatives that exist and that they learn to select the most effective and efficient for each project”, explained Víctor Cuchillac, Professor at the UTEC, the largest private University in El Salvador.
Due to the growing interest in UDS Enterprise within the educational community, RedIRIS has created a specific coordination list to deal with technical issues related to this VDI & vApp connection broker.
The new version of the VDI & vApp UDS Enterprise connection broker offers platform administrators the possibility of granting users certain permissions on a service. In particular they can delete and restart a virtual desktop.
To assign these permissions you must access the “Service Pools” section in the UDS Enterprise administration dashboard. Once there, when creating a new Pool or editing an existing one, in the “Advanced” tab the two new options will appear.
