During the last VMworld Europe VMware announced vSphere 6.5, the latest version of its industry-leading virtualization platform.<\/p>\n
The new release brings Virtual Hardware v13<\/strong> and VMs can now support up to 6 TB of memory<\/strong>. The\u00a0UEFI secure boot<\/strong> for guest OS as well as a simplified user experience<\/strong> enforce the VMware platform introducing some big enhancements in the following areas:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The vCenter Server Appliance introduces several new features with a new modern look and feel. Linux and Mac are now supported<\/strong> platforms along with Microsoft Windows.\u00a0The vCenter Server Appliance now brings new\u00a0features such as:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Migrating to the vCenter Server Appliance is no longer an issue as the installer has a built in Migration Tool<\/strong>\u00a0that\u00a0allows a more granular selection of migrated data:<\/p>\n Compared with previous release, Migrate<\/strong> and Restore<\/strong>\u00a0have been added enhancing\u00a0the capabilities of the Installer.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n VMware Update Manager (VUM) has been fully integrated<\/strong> into vCenter Server Appliance. No need to have a separate Windows server for VUM.<\/p>\n During the migration process the vCenter configuration, inventory, and alarm data is migrated by default<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The new release brings an\u00a0improved appliance management capabilities. The GUI now shows network and database statistics, disk space, and health in addition to CPU and memory statistics which reduces the reliance on using a command line interface<\/strong> for simple monitoring and operational tasks.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n vCenter Server 6.5 has a new native high availability solution<\/strong> that consists of Active, Passive, and Witness nodes which are cloned from the existing vCenter Server. Failover within the vCenter HA cluster can occur when an entire node is lost<\/strong> (host failure for example) or when certain key services<\/strong> fail.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It's now possible to backup and restore\u00a0vCenter Server 6.5 with its built-in backup and restore out-of-the-box functionality<\/strong> enabling customers to protect vCenter Server and Platform Services Controller appliances directly from the VAMI or API, and also backs up both VUM and Auto Deploy running embedded with the appliance.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The version 6.5 is still based on the Adobe Flex platform and requires Adobe Flash to use<\/strong>. Most significant improvements introduced in the new release are the following:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It is available a\u00a0fully supported version of the HTML5-based<\/strong> vSphere Client with limited features<\/strong> that will run alongside the vSphere Web Client. The vSphere Client will be reachable via http:\/\/<vcenter_fqdn>\/ui<\/em>.<\/p>\n Some of the benefits in the new vSphere Client:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n With the new release 6.5 it is now possible to encrypt VMs<\/strong> in order to protect against unauthorized data access. Also vMotion is now encrypted<\/strong> increasing the security during data at-rest and data in-motion.<\/p>\n Secure Boot<\/strong> is another feature implemented in this release that prevents the loading of unauthorized components<\/strong> during startup. It protects both the hypervisor and the guest operating system.<\/p>\n The enhanced Audit-Quality Logging<\/strong> capabilities\u00a0help the\u00a0IT to\u00a0better understand who did what, when, and where on a vSphere system.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n vSphere 6.5 brings new features to the datacenter that confirms the evolution of vSphere<\/strong> and consolidating VMware's\u00a0leadership in virtualization market.<\/p>\n During the last VMworld Europe VMware announced vSphere 6.5, the latest version of its industry-leading virtualization platform.
