In this blog post I would like to share how BGP is configured on VMware NSX to automatically update routing information with the physical network.
Recently I was involved in a project where we used BGP to peer the NSX environment with the physical network. The design we did was challenging because of scale. The NSX environment we deployed meant for a multi-tenant Cloud platform scaled for several hundreds of tenants.
In this post I would like to share how to create a Docker Cluster with Swarm on the new VMware Project Photon.
Project Photon is an open source Linux container host which is optimized for running on VMware vSphere. It has a very small footprint, is extensible and supports the most common container formats including Docker, Rocket and Garden. You can find more information about Photon at the VMware GitHub site.
Recently we’ve had some serious storage related issues regarding latencies, which in some cases even resulted in frozen VM’s. In this post I would like to share how we’ve troubleshooted this issues with the help of VMware vRealize Log Insight and vRealize Operations Manager.
In this post I would like to share a demo by Rory Clements from VMware’s End-User Computing team about network micro-segmentation using VMware NSX™ and Horizon® 6. This demo shows how NSX Security Groups and Policies can be used to allow or deny specific Active Directory Groups and Users to access to resources on the network.
In this post I want to share a very cool solution provided by VMware. If you want to migratie your vCenter Server with an external SQL database to an vCenter Server Appliance with the embedded vPostgres database you can use the VCS to VCSA Converter Appliance. The VCS to VCVA Converter Appliance is the winning idea from the 2013 Fling Contest. The Fling migrates the vCenter database, roles, permissions, privileges, certificates and inventory service. The target appliance will run at the same IP address as the source vCenter. Check out the demo from the VMware Labs YouTube channel.
