VMware’s Pere Monclus, CTO for the Networking and Security Business Unit, explains why the evolution of infrastructure from hardware to software is driving digital transformation. Companies are using nascent technologies to reach new customers, automate processes, and put more productive tools into the hands of their employees.

I had a power outage recently that took out my entire lab in a very ungraceful manner – everything, well mostly everything, came back up without a hitch – but NSX was asking a bit weird, so I decided to redeploy the NSX Controllers. I removed all 3 controllers and tried redeploying but ended up …Read More

I’ve seen a few questions around this and I wanted to put together a quick post to put them to rest. Long story short, vSphere Replication and SRM work together the same with vSAN Encryption turned on as they do with it turned off. The reason for this is that vSAN encryption happens at the last/lowest layer or stage of the I/O path, . . .

When rolling out a VDI solution (or really, anything that touches on the user experience), it’s crucial to understand how the change might impact the users and to ensure that they are left with a good impression of the solution. They say that first impressions are most lasting, and the first impression that your users are going to see (for most solutions) is logon time. That means that it’s crucial that your solution does not negatively impact logon times, as that will color the entire…Read More

vRealize Network Insight Overview

“It’s the network!” seems like the battle-cry for some server teams. I come from a system administration background; I get it. When all of your services are running and the event logs look clear, it must be something external to the system… which is either the network, or something is being talked to through the network. I’ve seen so many server guys chant that mantra, toss the problem over the fence and then wash their hands of the whole situation that I want to scream. That said, I’ve…Read More
