17 Marzo 2016
Comments off

Reading Time: 2 minutesFinalmente è arrivato il secondo importante aggiornamento a VMware vSphere 6.0: con l’update 2 possiamo decisamente considerare il prodotto maturo (e risolti i vari problemi sui backup… e non solo). Questa è la base di partenza ottimale per nuove installazioni. Ma anche l’opportunità per provare la nuova Virtual SAN 6.2, che come di consueto è inclusa in vSphere (almeno per quanto riguarda il codice, e spero che in futuro lo possa diventare anche per quanto riguarda la licenza).

After all, it’s cheap, it’s convenient, and most importantly, it’s almost future-safe. Of course, we’re all paranoid about cyber theft and hackers, but if you follow these ten tips you will have absolutely no reason to worry.
