Runecast free Analytics for Healthcare & VMware Horizon

Runecast will respond to COVID-19 crisis by offering free licenses to healthcare institutions and companies with VMware Horizon.

Helping companies to protect employees by letting them work from home and thus slowing down the rate of new infections is an important step in the battle against SARS-CoV-2.

Running an Horizon infrastructure in these days is a challenge for any IT team when the workloads shift from on premises to remote access. It is also vitally important to keep healthcare infrastructures up and running. Medical staff does a very good but demanding job these days aroud the globe. But they cannot do their job without IT infrastucture. Lives depend on that. So it’s a good initiative by Runecast to help making these infrastructures a bit safer.

I know a lot of people at Runecast and I’d like to express my personal thanks to everyone of them.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Automatic Segmentation of VDI Endpoints

Automatic VLAN assignment and use of DHCP relays

Software defined datacenters (SDDC) enable us to keep many components within the hypervisors software layer. But sooner or later we need to exit that layer in order to get in touch with the user. Usually Thin- or Zeroclients are used as VDI endpoints. Those hardware boxes are connected by LAN and need to have an IP address.

I will demonstrate how to assign endpoints  to separate them into subnet segments and VLANs and still assign IP addresses by a centralized DHCP server.
