During the last two weeks the most read articles in our blog were the selection of guides about OpenStack, the case study about the VDI platform in the University of Sevilla with UDS Enterprise & oVirt and the new features of UDS Enterprise, in particular the on-screen keyboard for mobile operating systems.
In case you didn’t have the chance to read them, find below the links to these posts:
Guides to move into the cloud with OpenStack
OpenStack is a huge project in which come into play many parts, and its development cycles are very fast. Thus, sometimes is difficult to keep abreast of all developments.
To make things a little easier, we collect the best tutorials, guides and tips of the month, so that you can consult all the news at a glance. Remember that if you have any questions, you always have the option to consult OpenStack Offitial documentation.
VMware debuted VMware vCloud for NFV, an integrated Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) platform that will combine VMware’s production-proven virtualized compute, networking, storage and management solutions with integrated OpenStack support.
With support for more than 40 different virtual network functions (VNFs) from more than 30 vendors, VMware vCloud for NFV is the only platform available today that runs different VNFs from different vendors side by side on the same unified platform for the cloud.
With vCloud for NFV, communication service providers (CSPs) can deploy NFV solutions into production on a proven platform to achieve faster time to market for new and differentiated services while driving sustainable cost reductions.
See more details at VMware press release.
OpenStack has included UDS Enterprise in the supporting companies list that are actively involved in the development of the project. The development Team has been working for months to implement connectivity to OpenStack to the VDI connection broker.
This action is part of VirtualCable’s policy of spreading and supporting Open Source initiatives for the benefit of the community.
In previous publications we talked about oVirt and Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization, and today we finish our series of articles about KVM hypervisor management tools talking about OpenStack thanks, once again, to this interesting article by vMiss.net.
If we throw a glance at the matrix support of OpenStack hypervisor, we can see that the only set of drivers tested in Group A is libvirt with KVM, which means that these drivers have been deeply tested and are fully supported. Bearing in mind the warm welcome to OpenStack by the Open Source community, this fact is not surprising at all.
