Harbor, an enterprise class registry server

Harbor, an enterprise class registry server

With the GA release of vSphere Integrated Containers (aka VIC) on December, VMware also announced an enterprise class registry server based on the open source Docker Distribution that allows us to store and distribute container images in our datacenter. While VIC Engine (actually the core component of VIC) is great for providing a container runtime for vSphere, enterprise customers governed by strict regulations require a more private solution in order to store and manage container images rather than the default cloud-based registry service from Docker. Docker has already a private solution, which is called Trusted Registry, but the lack of enterprise grade functionalities such as increased control and security, identity and management…Read More

I have more articles on templates and you can find them all – including this one here.

Startup intro: Runecast

Startup intro: Runecast — via Yellow Bricks

Startup intro: Runecast

I met with Runecast a couple of years ago at VMworld. Actually, I am not sure they already had a name back then, I should probably say I met with the guys who ended up founding Runecast at VMworld. One of them, Stan, is a VCDX and back then he pitched this idea to me around an appliance that would analyze your environment based on a set of KBs. His idea was primarily based on his experience managing and building datacenters. (Not just Stan’s experience, but most of the team are actually former IBM employees) Interesting concept, kind of sounded similar to CloudPhysics to me, although the focus was more on correlation of KB then capacity management etc.

NSX Revenue Planning Calculator

The NSX revenue planning calculator is designed to show a service provider how to make additional revenue by upselling component NSX derived services. Many service providers I speak to are asking VMware the age-old question, ‘How can I make money from your bundles?’ Equally we also hear that the bundles are expensive, my response to this is – are you realizing the value and selling the functionality of the bundles or just internally operationalizing it?
