Dopo l’annuncio di qualche tempo fa, da oggi è finalmente disponibile per il download VMware View 5, la nuova major-release del prodotto per infrastrutture di Dekstop Virtuali di casa VMware.

Vediamo insieme quali sono le novità della versione 5:

  • View Media Services for 3D Graphics enables basic 3D applications like Windows Aero, Office 2010 or those requiring OpenGL or DirectX in View desktops without the need for specialized graphics cards or client devices.
  • View Media Services for Integrated Unified Communications enables an integrated VOIP and View desktop experience for the end-user with an architecture to provide optimized performance for both the desktop and unified communication.
  • View Persona Management (View Premier editions only) dynamically associates a user persona to stateless floating desktops. IT administrators can deploy easier to manage stateless floating desktops to more use cases while enabling user personalization to persist between sessions.
  • PCoIP Extension Services allow WMI based tools to collect over 20 session statistics for monitoring, trending and troubleshooting end-user support issues.
  • PCoIP Optimization Controls deliver protocol efficiency and enables IT administrators to configure the bandwidth settings by use case, user or network requirements to consume up to 75% less bandwidth.
  • PCoIP Continuity Services deliver a seamless end-user experience regardless of network reliability by detecting interruptions and automatically reconnecting the session.
  • View Client for Android enables end-users with Android based tablets to access View virtual desktops.
  • Enhanced Security Settings enable client certificate handling customization using established browser certificate model to reinforce corporate policy.
  • vSphere 5 support ensures that View desktop services run on the industry’s most complete and robust cloud infrastructure platform for flexible, reliable IT services
Non ho molta esperienza con VMware View (rispetto per esempio a Citrix XenDesktop) e la versione 4/4.5 erano , secondo me, molto indietro rispetto ai diretti competitors, specialmente sulle connessioni WAN e sul supporto ai dispositivi non Microsoft: appena ne avrò la possibilità farò un articolo sulle mie considerazioni riguardo alla prova sul campo.
