The VMware Reference Architecture for Stateless Virtual Desktops with VMware

VMware Virtualization and Software Development

Virtualization technology has recently matured to the point where it can be used dependably on a daily basis by anyone. Computer virtualization is the idea of running virtual computer(s) inside of a physical host computer. The basic idea behind the technology is not difficult to understand, but understanding how the technology is implemented is more complicated. In this paper, the basic ideas b...

The Lanc - Bringing Local Atm to the Workstation

Recent years have seen the introduction of high-bandwidth WANs such as Broadband-ISDN. Such networks are increasingly adopting ATM as their base networking technology. This has posed a number of problems for the integration of LANs and the design of high-performance workstations such as those aiming to provide multimedia support. The solution is to use ATM as the base technology for the local a...

Evaluating Xen, VMware, and OpenVZ Virtualization Platforms for Network Virtualization

Network virtualization is a technique that allows having multiple concurrent isolated networks sharing physical network resources. This work analyzes the main available virtualization platforms, Xen, OpenVZ, and VMware, for network virtualization. We compare their virtualization techniques, achieved performance in virtualizing computational resources and appropriateness for usage in a virtual n...
