VIDEO OF THE WEEK: Hyper9 SimDK in action

This video demonstrates starting the SimDK web service, connecting to it with the vSphere4 PowerCLI, and retrieving a set of virtual machines.

VIDEO OF THE WEEK: VKernel Capacity Modeler

What If Model Virtual Infrastructure Adds and Changes The VKernel Modeler virtual appliance provides an interactive, analytical sandbox where you can quickly simulate and validate additions and changes that you want to make to your VMware ESX infrastructure. You will immediately see what the performance impact will be before the changes and additions are made in the production environment.

VIDEO OF THE WEEK: Virtual Machines Live Migration on a Xen HA system

This video shows you an RDP session while live migration of a Windows 2008 R2 terminal server running as a virtual machine on a XEN-HA cluster. Within the RDP session a video is playing while live migrating the terminal server vm from one XEN-HA cluster node to the other node and back again without any downtime. Only one ping is lost while migrating. You will see a very short stop playing the video at 1:06 and 2:12. The XEN-HA Cluster is based on two identical Debian 5.0 XEN Hosts with drbd (raid 1 with sata disks and sync with 2 x gbit nic) and heartbeat. The whole system runs with open source software! This XEN-HA cluster is not any experimental system. It works as a production system at many customers from us.

VIDEO OF THE WEEK: Liquidware Labs Stratusphere Introduction

Overview and Demo of Stratusphere VDI diagnostics and assessment platform, connectorID Key installation, physical and virtual desktop and applications by Liquidware Labs. Gain complete visibility into VMware View, Xen Desktop, Microsoft Med-v, Sun Microsystems, and other solutions before, during, and after deployment. Stratusphere gathers results focused data on infrastructure, system, user, and application resources and consumption. Secure, scalable, and well performing VDI projects turn to Stratusphere first.

VIDEO OF THE WEEK: vCenter Orchestrator API - Part 1

Stefan R&D Manager describes the vCenter Orchestrator APIs - Session from Technology Exchange Developer Day.

VIDEO OF THE WEEK: VMware shows the Mobile Virtualization Platform

VMware has demoed its mobile virtualisation platform, which could potentially let users simultaneously run two different operating systems. Head of MVP engineering Julia Alston walks through the system at VMworld Europe.

VIDEO OF THE WEEK: EMC Ionix Unified Infrastructure Manager Demo

This is a short demonstration of EMC Ionix Unified Infrastructure Manager v1.0. This is a tool that is designed to do infrastructure-level provisioning of the Cisco (UCS, Nexus, MDS), and EMC (Celerra, CLARiiON, Symmetrix) when they are integrated as a unit in a VCE Vblock. EMC Ionix UIM adds compliance, change control, multi-tenancy, scheduling, and automated remediation of the Vblock as a whole. Imagine being able to configure the full infrastructure stack with a single click, adding vSphere hosts to clusters and creating whole new clusters from standardized service catalogs.
