Citrix Cloud Center : Why Citrix Cloud strategy makes sense!



No long story this time (maybe later when I have more time):

  • It is an inter-operable gateway to your both Internal Cloud and External Clound strategy*
  • It's NetScaler sees 75% of internet traffic pass by, so they have the Cloud Intelligence as well
  • Cloud Computing has already adopted more Xen versions than ever
* Inter-operable gateway-hub model is the key to Citrix's strengths within any CIO and CISO's discussion. This breaks a lot of discussions loose and focuses on many aspects that we have still not been able to address within the enterprise. think of Security, Compliance, Ownership etc. This Internal Cloud vs External Cloud Model is an excellent way to break away from traditional IT barriers where its needed and keep the ones within the internal cloud domains which cannot be transported and hosted on an "External Data Hotel".

My upcoming speech at CloudCamp is something I'd like to welcome you too. We will talk about Visualization, Security, Compliance and several Cloud Computing models. For now, get yourself washed with the VMworld fizz.

Do I need to say more?

Anyways here's a peek at Simon's session where he'll explain in detail what the whole Cloud madness is all about.

Security: VMware Workstation 6 vulnerability

vulnerable software: VMware Workstation 6.0 for Windows, possible some other VMware products as well type of vulnerability: DoS, potential privilege escalation I found a vulnerability in VMware Workstation 6.0 which allows an unprivileged user in the host OS to crash the system and potentially run arbitrary code with kernel privileges. The issue is in the vmstor-60 driver, which is supposed to mount VMware images within the host OS. When sending the IOCTL code FsSetVoleInformation with subcode FsSetFileInformation with a large buffer and underreporting its size to at max 1024 bytes, it will underrun and potentially execute arbitrary code.

Splunk that!

Saw this advert on Slashdot and went on to look for it and found the tour pretty neat to look at. Check out the demo too! So why would I need it? WHY NOT? I'd say. As an organization grows , new services, new data comes by, new logs start accumulating on the servers and it becomes increasingly difficult to look at all those logs, leave alone that you'd have time to read them and who cares about analysis as the time to look for those log files already makes your day, isn't it? Well a solution like this is a cool option to have your sysadmins/operators look at ONE PLACE and thus you don't have your administrators lurking around in your physical servers and *accidentally* messing up things there. Go ahead and give it a shot by downloading it and testing it. I'll give it a shot myself! Ok so I went ahead and installed it. Do this... [root@tarrydev Software]# ./splunk-Server-1.0.1-linux-installer.bin to install and this (if you screw up) [root@tarrydev Software]# /op

Virtualization is hot and sexy!

If this does not convince you to virtualize, believe me, nothing will :-) As you will hear these gorgeous women mention VMware, Akkori, Pano Logic, Microsoft and VKernel. They forgot to mention rackspace ;-) virtualization girl video I'm convinced, aren't you? Check out their site as well!
