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.

Whale Fall ----------------- Dress me up in my new threads clasp my greasy palms grease my hair I'm ready for the fall Watch at all the decadence watching the avalanche I'm slipping down losing my buoyancy What's become of us where have we come this far, this close close to the doors I hear them, sublimal chants I'm on the run I race through the human sea I am the king! I'm the slave to my own undoings I'm the jester in my courtyard We jest as we run We're strolling on that thin rope we grope as we rope we're true heros we're the survivors we're the scavengers we're the friends we're the lovers we're the unbred Soon awaiting the fall we're lurking on us we're osedaxing us we're soon going to be done we'll soon be arrested *osedax(bone devourer, newly discovered marine genus) feeds on a fallen(sunken) whale carcass(which is also called a whale fall).

Our frozen chi's and the Workfloor

I left home when I was 20. I had studied Physics(Major) and had no idea what to do next. I took to the seas, I think looking back it was more like a refuge, an asylum. Seeking to get away from all that peer pressure, myself and what not. 1991 June 7, around midnight I arrive in Lagos, Nigeria. Company agent ships me to the nearby hotel to wait for my first “boat”. That's the first time in my life I saw a lot of people , a race totally different from ours. I was warned to be careful, protect my wallet, but they came across as just about any other regular folk. That was my “first encounter”. Funny, since then I have worked with all kinds of nationalities (Japanese, Chinese, Malaysians, Indonesians, Dutch, Scandinavians, Thai, Americans, Spanish, Argentinians,..I can go on and on). What I have learned in all that is that we are all so much alike. But on board a ship it is “ really ” different. Your job is crucial and you must work together. That makes you accept each other realistica...
