Space VDI 5.3.0 with Physical Machine Pool Management
On December 4, 2023, Dacom M announced the release of Space VDI 5.3.0, an updated version of the virtual desktop solution. The release includes: architectural improvements to Space Disp; the ability to upload events to external logging systems, in CEF format, for the ArcSight incident monitoring and control platform; implementation of physical machine pool management; optimization of recording and security subsystems; Password Policy Management Upgrade "Enhanced" password strength mode; development - Space Agent PC 1.3, for installation on a physical PC; integration with ADFS and optimization of the graphical Web interface.
The transition to the Space Disp cluster architecture has been completed. The method of installing Space Disp as a single instance is disabled, without the possibility of creating additional instances. This solution allows you to move towards the flexibility of using various options for scaling the infrastructure and provides the ability to implement a fault-tolerant manager scheme.
It is possible to upload events to external logging systems, in CEF format, for the ArcSight incident monitoring and control platform.
The ability to upload events to external systems, such as ArcSight, will further ensure Space Disp's information security. Such systems allow automated analysis of recorded events in order to identify potential incidents of information security.
The functionality provides the ability to connect to a group of physical machines and solves the tasks of managing the desktops of remote machines operating outside the virtualization infrastructure under the Astra Linux operating system.
The security engine is optimized by adding interaction with single sign-on and two-factor authentication (SSO, ADFS) technologies in Space Disp and ensuring the security of the data exchange functionality in Space Client.
{{quote 'As part of the release, complex comprehensive work has been done to ensure the safety and effectiveness of Space Disp functionality. In addition, the main difference between the release and the previous ones is the change in the architectural features of Space Disp, which directed the development vector towards improving performance and providing updated options for scaling the infrastructure using the Space VDI ecosystem. The updated scaling schemes can be found on the pages of our documentation, - said Ruslan Belov, Product Director of Space VDI, Dakom M LLC. }}
Password policy management has been improved, the "Enhanced" password resistance mode has been implemented.
The added functionality of mandatory temporary password changes allows you to strengthen data privacy, and the complexity of these passwords is now controlled by resistance levels from "weak level" to "enhanced." In addition, new user roles, such as auditors, provide the ability to monitor user actions and do not have the ability to make changes.
Developed by Space Agent PC 1.3, for installation on a physical PC. Space Agent PC 1.3 is a software separable module that supports proprietary access protocols and optimizes Space Client's interaction with physical machines.
Integration with ADFS was carried out. ADFS allows companies to manage their own identity infrastructures and apply on-demand authentication to access applications, services, or resources. The ADFS task is to issue digital IDs based on successful authentication in Active Directory (Windows Server Directory Services). These issued credentials will be sufficient grounds for successful authentication and authorization for Space Disp and Space Client.
The graphical Web interface is optimized: by refining fonts and choosing the optimal colors for light and dark themes, we have improved readability, intelligibility and adaptability.
Delta Tioga Pass and Delta Argut compatibility
Delta Computers and Dak M on October 25, 2023 announced testing for performance and technological compatibility of Delta Computers server products with the Space VDI virtual desktop infrastructure platform.
Desktop virtualization technology has become widespread over the past few years due to the trend towards digitalization. It allows employees to work productively and securely in a remote format, and business - to ensure continuity of processes, reduce operating costs and simplify IT maintenance.
Using the VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure), the desktop image is run on a virtual machine and delivered to the client on any device over the network. A virtual machine, VM (Virtual Machine), is a comprehensive platform for deploying a complete private cloud in an enterprise environment with the necessary additional tools to automate and coordinate cloud services.
As part of the course for import substitution Russian IT the equipment manufacturer, Delta Computers tested the compatibility of its server platforms - high-performance compact form factor servers Delta Tioga Pass and universal Delta Argut storage modules - software with Space VDI, the domestic analogue of the most common means for organizing a foreign-made virtual table infrastructure. Based on the test results, a certificate of compatibility and correct operation of these solutions was issued, which allows combining them as fully Russian software and hardware systems (PAC).
We are pleased to confirm the compatibility of our products with the Space VDI solution. The opportunity to get a complete solution and ensure its operation in one window mode is becoming increasingly important for corporate customers. Proven technological compatibility and high performance of our products will create a competitive PAC that meets security requirements and provides ease of use through continuous infrastructure expansion. Delta Computers will continue to join forces with leading Russian software developers to create complex solutions in accordance with the needs of our customers, "said Maxim Tereshchenko, Head of Project Management at Delta Computers. |
According to Ruslan Belov, Product Director of Space VDI, over the past decade, the world of microelectronics has developed a tendency to cooperate with foreign companies. The abundance of solutions provided the customer with a large choice among products with a different set of functionality and in different price segments. However, many large foreign suppliers of server equipment are unable to provide their products. For Russian manufacturers, this has become a powerful incentive for active growth and development.
Despite the fact that parallel imports close a number of needs, there is no certainty that access to the necessary equipment will simply not disappear. Our cooperation with Delta Computers opens up opportunities for the development of the Russian IT landscape. In addition, hardware compatibility ensures conflict-free and trouble-free operation of servers and virtualization software, which is an important component of building a high-quality virtual infrastructure, "commented Ruslan Belov. |
