Infinitely Virtual,
a leading provider of Cloud Server computing services, today announced
support for Windows 2012 and Windows 8, a move that marks the completion
of its VMware vSphere® 5.1 upgrade cycle.
The
company recently announced its implementation of vSphere 5.1, a
comprehensive update of the world's most widely deployed virtualization
platform. The foundation of the VMware vCloud Suite, vSphere 5.1
includes more than 100 enhancements and new features aimed at delivering
optimum performance across all applications.
Among
the vSphere 5.1 enhancements is support for Windows 2012 and Windows 8.
vShield Manager 5.1, a virtual appliance that is part of the vSphere
upgrade, is integral to that support, providing firewall protection,
traffic analysis, and network perimeter services to protect the virtual
infrastructure. vShield Manager -- the centralized management component
of vShield -- is used to monitor and push configurations to vShield App,
vShield Endpoint, and vShield Edge implementations.
"Our
deployment of vSphere 5.1 enables us to offer small and midsize
businesses Windows 2012 and Windows 8 within a virtualization
environment," said Adam Stern, CEO, Infinitely Virtual. "In addition to
bringing the significant capabilities of both flavors of Windows to our
customers, we're delivering, through vShield, improved scalability,
performance, and increased logging and reporting. The takeaway is a
qualitatively better user experience - one that is both seamless and
cost-effective."
