Neues von der VMworld?

[pirx]

Hi,

ich verliere etwas den Überblick. Was gibt es es denn für Ankündigungen von der VMworld?

- VMware EVO:RAIL: Hyper-Converged Infrastructure aus Hard- und Software von VMware (bzw. Hardware von den Partnern)

- VMware vSphere Remote Office Version: Lizenzierung über VMs, nicht Sockel (ist das wirklich neu?)

- VIO / VMware Integrated OpenStack: VMware supported OpenStack distribution

Bisher wurde kein neues vSphere Release vorgestellt, dass 6.0 erst nächstes Jahr kommt, ist ja schon länger durchgesickert. Wird es ein 5.8 geben?

Was gibt es sonst Neues? Meinungen dazu?

What’s new in vSphere 6? – VMworld 2014 News
Posted by fgrehl on August 27, 2014 Leave a comment (0)Go to comments
The next version of vSphere is currently in public beta state. While the beta is still under NDA, VMware has announced some features at their VMworld 2014 conference:

Multi-CPU Fault Tolerance
vMotion Enhancements (Cross vCenter, long distance, NSX)
Virtual Datacenters
Virtual Volumes

Multi-CPU Fault Tolerance
Fault Tolerance is going to support virtual machines with 4 vCPUs and 64GB of RAM. The SMP-FT called feature uses a fast checkpointing mechanism to keep primary and secondary VMs in sync. Fast checkpointing replaces the Record/Replay technology that was previously used.

vMotion Enhancements
Through vSphere 5.5, vMotion was limited to the vCenter/Datacenter boundary. With vSphere 6.0 vMotion can migrate Virtual Machines across vCenters, virtual switches and routed networks.

Virtual Datacenters
vSphere 6.0 goes one step further than resource Pools. A Virtual Datacenter aggregates CPU, Memory, Storage and Network resources.

Virtual Volumes
vVols is a new approach on how storage is deployed, managed and consumed by making the storage VM-centric. Currently we have storage that is LUN- or Volume-centric. VVols makes storage VM-centric by making the storage arrays aware of individual VMDK files.

P.S. Ich hoffe, das Zitat ist ok.

vSphere Client

You may be happy or disappointed to hear that VMware has decided to keep on the VI Client (C# Client) for one more release, vSphere 6.0. After that they say it will definitely be gone. Although the Web Client continues to progress and speed up, customer feedback has been that they would like to continue to use the familiar older client for now. No new functionality is being added to the C# Client so although it will be supported, it is only able to manage an ever decreasing subset of vSphere functionality.


Das sind schon mal gute Neuigkeiten!

Für mich gibt es nicht so viel neues Interessantes. Ich hoffe der neue HTML5 Client wird besser als der aktuelle.
