Introducing ConVirt 2.0!

We are very pleased to introduce ConVirt 2.0 – the next major step up in open source virtualization management. The ConVirt 2.0 generation combines a flexible, open architecture, the highest level of management capabilities, and the industry’s most flexible pricing model.  Built on a brand-new, 3-tier architecture, ConVirt 2.0 includes a highly interactive, web-based user interface, a new data repository, advanced automation, enterprise scalability, multi-user administration, a full suite of integration capabilities, and much more .

We are delivering ConVirt 2.0 in two editions – ConVirt 2.0 Open Source and ConVirt 2.0 Enterprise.  Focusing on core management and advanced automation respectively, both editions benefit from ConVirt 2.0’s new, highly robust, scalable and open architecture while at the same time allowing organizations of any size to best match their individual needs.

ConVirt 2.0 Open Source (available now!) Building upon ConVirt 1.0, the leading management tool for open source virtualization, and benefiting from robust community testing and feedback during an extensive public beta, ConVirt 2.0 Open Source is finally here! ConVirt 2.0 Open Source dramatically improves upon its predecessor by delivering greater ease of use, accessibility as well as new features for automating every aspect of virtual machine lifecycle management including monitoring, configuration management, templates-based provisioning, basic automation, live migration and much more. ConVirt 2.0 Open Source is licensed under GPL and is free to download and use. Meanwhile, support from Convirture is always there when you need it.  Learn more about ConVirt 2.0 Open Source here.

ConVirt 2.0 Enterprise (coming soon) extends ConVirt 2.0 Open Source’s capabilities with advanced automation, scalability and extensive enterprise integration – necessary to run large scale or mission critical virtualization environments. Some feature highlights of ConVirt 2.0 Enterprise include High Availability, Backup and Restore, Dynamic Resource Allocation, fine-grained Role Based Access Control, and many more. Learn more about ConVirt 2.0 Enterprise and the upcoming beta here.

With ConVirt 2.0, organizations considering Xen or KVM as open source alternatives to commercial virtualization platforms are no longer forced to compromise on manageability. ConVirt 2.0’s advanced automation, enterprise scalability and datacenter integration features now meet or exceed what’s available from proprietary platform vendors … and it’s all there without the vendor lock-in and excessive costs!

By choosing a combination of Xen and KVM with ConVirt 2.0 as the management solution, companies of all sizes can now reap the full benefits of server virtualization at the highest levels of flexibility and lowest total cost of ownership.

Learn more about ConVirt 2.0 here.

ConVirt 2.0 Beta now available.

We are very pleased to announce immediate availability of ConVirt 2.0 Beta!  Built on a brand new, 3-tier, repository-based architecture, ConVirt 2.0 incorporates many of our users’ most wanted and anticipated features.

Here are a few highlights:

  • Ajax-based rich internet application: access ConVirt from anywhere via a Web browser!
  • Data repository: track historical performance and diagnose problems.
  • Multi-user administration: share responsibility while keeping track of accountability.
  • Asynchronous task subsystem: start multiple tasks in parallel and keep an eye on their progress.
  • Usability enhancements: greatly improved navigation and powerful information display via dashboards.
  • … and much more …

Grabbing and deploying the Beta couldn’t be simpler – just take a peek at the Appliance Catalogue in your current ConVirt 1.1 installation. ;-)   For more information, or if you do not have an active v1.1 installation, check out the ConVirt 2.0 Beta wiki for instructions on how to get started.

Our main goal with this release is to get your feedback on features, usability, and bugs. We strongly encourage everyone to deploy and use ConVirt 2.0 Beta alongside their current ConVirt installation. We look forward to hearing your experiences at the new 2.0 Beta forums.

Finally, our Beta users will soon get an opportunity to participate in product workshops and webinars. Stay tuned for more information!
