VMTurbo Makes VMworld Dreams Come True

VMTurbo, the only software-driven control platform for the software-defined world announced that it will be giving away passes to VMworld Europe in Barcelona in October in its VMworld Europe Sweepstakes starting this Friday, August 22.

Every Friday in June, VMTurbo gave away two full conference passes to VMworld U.S, held at the Moscone Center in San Francisco August 24-28. Each Friday, one winner and a lucky friend punched their ticket to the Super Bowl of virtualization, and those winners will be joining VMTurbo (VMworld booth #405) to learn about the cutting edge of technologies enabling the software-defined data center.

Key technology innovations that VMTurbo will be demonstrating at VMworld include:

  • VMTurbo’s Software-Driven Control expanded across the IT stack with new hardware support built into Control Modules for Storage and Fabric. This provides customers the ability to drive more comprehensive management of virtualized workloads in converged infrastructure such as Flexpod and Vblock, as well as in storage control, including support for EMC VNX, enabling up to 30% improvement in utilization
  • New support for OpenStack, including contributions back to the community building instrumentation for Software-Driven Control into the OpenStack Java SDK, as well as contributing to Ceilometer (OpenStack Unified Instrumentation/Metering) and Nova (OpenStack Compute) projects, joining our existing support for VMware, Microsoft, RedHat and Citrix environments
  • The new ability to reserve capacity for future workloads, by enabling not only the scheduling of those workloads but for VMTurbo to reserve adequate capacity for those workloads to launch when needed

With the VMworld Europe Sweepstakes, VMTurbo is continuing its tradition of sending as many IT pros to VMworld as possible. “We’re leading the software-defined revolution, breaking down datacenter boundaries to bring workload demand into equilibrium with resource capacity – from the spindles of your on-prem datastores to the heftiest VM you’ve provisioned in the Amazon cloud,” said CMO Geeta Sachdev. “Why shouldn’t we unleash our customers and others who can benefit from learning about Software-Driven Control?”

Enter the VMTurbo VMworld Europe sweepstakes today, and check in this Friday for results of the first drawing. Winners will be selected the next 3 Fridays - August 22, 29, & September 5.

Cell networks have the advantage of long-range communications, reaching an estimated 90% of the world. But cell networks such as 2G, 3G and LTE consume lots of power and were designed for connecting people. They are not optimized for low- or battery-powered devices or for IoT applications with infrequently transmitted data. Cell IoT modules that support narrow-band IoT and 4G cell networks will enable cell connectivity, device management, and app enablement for low-power wide-area network IoT. B...
The many IoT deployments around the world are busy integrating smart devices and sensors into their enterprise IT infrastructures. Yet all of this technology – and there are an amazing number of choices – is of no use without the software to gather, communicate, and analyze the new data flows. Without software, there is no IT. In this power panel at @ThingsExpo, moderated by Conference Chair Roger Strukhoff, Dave McCarthy, Director of Products at Bsquare Corporation; Alan Williamson, Principal ...
