Reading Time: 2 minutes

VMTurbo was founded on the vision of assuring the performance of any workload, on any infrastructure, anywhere at anytime. Over the past few years, they’ve delivered a platform that empowers over 1,500 customers to deliver better application performance, agility, and efficiency.

Now virtualization is something mainstream (or maybe it’s also become legacy, in some cases): several customers are moving beyond VMs to leverage containers and public clouds as they transition from monolithic to cloud-native applications.

Gli utenti possono accedere in modalità remota alle applicazione dai computer portatili, dai tablet o dai telefoni connessi a Internet.

Reading Time: 6 minutes

Tintri is a well know storage vendor focused on VM-aware storage (VAS) for virtual and cloud environments working in a traditional scale-in model (dual controller with disks and you can expand the disks part), but also recently in a scale-out model using a federated node design that treats multiple Tintri VMstores (both all-flash and hybrid-flash nodes) as a pool of storage, greatly simplifying management, planning and resource allocation.

But compared to other software based storage product you need Tintri boxes to make some tests, evaluate the product or just learn more. Or ask for the an access to the Tintri “Lightning Lab”, an on cloud lab environment provided by Tintri and based on real products, not only for the storage part (where you can have T5060, T880, T620, T540 storage), but also for the servers (Dell based) and switches (the data network is 10 Gbps) part.

Quinto compleanno del blog vInfrastructure

Cinque anni fa ho iniziato a postare in questo blog (come testimonia il primo post ufficiale: Il blog prende vita), inizialmente con un dominio leggermente diverso, ma poi, per brevità, diventato quasi subito quello definitivo.

Anche se sembra passata un’eternità, in questi pochi anni il blog è diventato uno tra i blog sulla virtualizzazione più noti (nelle graduatorie dei Top vBlog nel 2012, nel 2013, nel 2014, nel 2015 nei top 25 per poi tornare nei top 50 nel 2016) e continua ad rimanere in doppia lingua: italiano ed inglese.
