Security for the New Battlefield @VMwareNSX

Security for the New Battlefield

What will be our security challenge in the coming decade? Running trusted services even on untrusted infrastructure. That means protecting the confidentiality and integrity of data as it moves through the network. One possible solution – distributed network encryption – a new approach made possible by network virtualization and the software-defined data center that addresses some of the current challenges of widespread encryption usage inside the data center.

VMware Perspective – Go Away Zombie NIC!!! (via…

Hi friends, I was doing some NIC manipulation on one of my virtual machines for some Horizon View testing I was doing. After I finished changing the NIC on the golden image I did some work on the guest OS, powered it off and took a snapshot so I could point Horizon View to the new image. After I started cloning the new desktops I realized I had forgot to change the NIC back so the desktops could talk to my private network. Crud!

Significant Performance Improvements Come to the @VMwarevSphere Web Client 5.5 Update 3

Significant Performance Improvements Come to…

Over the course of the previous few years we’ve seen a steady improvement in the vSphere Web Client . VMware has been listening to the feedback coming in from our field, partners, and customers. And the feedback is that the vSphere Web Client in vCenter Server 6.0 and 6.0 Update 1 has been a really great step forward in terms of User Experience (UX). With that in mind, many of the improvements of the 6.0 vSphere Web Client have been “backported” to the vSphere Web Client in vCenter Server 5.5 Update 3 .
