VMware vCenter is an important component of the VMware vSphere virtual infrastructure, allowing you to use advanced VMware features. The most common approach to installing vCenter is deploying vCenter Server Appliance (VCSA) as a virtual machine on an ESXi host. This blog post explains how to install VMware vCenter as a virtual appliance to get access to enterprise features in your vSphere environment.

Running Linux on Hyper-V allows you to combine the stability of Microsoft’s virtualization platform with the versatility of open-source operating systems. Whether you’re exploring Linux for education, testing or production environments, Hyper-V provides a reliable way to deploy and manage virtual machines efficiently. Among the many supported distributions, Ubuntu Linux stands out for its simplicity and broad compatibility.

PowerCLI is one of the most powerful tools for managing and automating VMware vSphere and vCloud. You can manage VM provisioning, storage, networking, operating systems in hosts and guests, changes, and any other aspect of VMware vSphere. Let’s take a look at what PowerCLI is and the basics of installing this VMware vSphere management tool. NAKIVO for VMware vSphere Backup Complete data protection for VMware vSphere VMs and instant recovery options.

Almost all cloud services that allow you to manage multiple users have a dedicated administration interface. Microsoft Office 365 is categorized as software as a service (SaaS) and provides its own Microsoft Office 365 admin center. You can use this administration center to manage user accounts and mailboxes, configure the Office 365 cloud environment, monitor statistics and more. This blog post explains how to use the updated Office 365 admin center and what features can be configured.

Author: Alexander Ivanyuk, Senior Director, Technology Generative AI changes how people work with information. A user can ask a question, upload a document, summarize a ticket, draft an email or ask an AI assistant to help with a workflow. That is useful because the interaction feels natural. But the same natural-language interface also creates a new security problem: instructions and data can become mixed together.

AI is everywhere in Australian schools. Students are using AI-powered tools to support learning, teachers are leveraging AI to improve productivity and lesson planning, and school administrators are exploring new ways to simplify operations. But while AI holds a lot of promise, it also introduces new cybersecurity challenges. Australian schools increasingly find themselves balancing innovation with the need to protect students and staff.

The terminal output was still scrolling when Jer Crane, the founder of PocketOS, realized what had happened. Nine seconds. That is how long it took a coding AI agent to delete his production database, his backups, and three months of operational records. PocketOS was using Cursor for what should have been a routine task in a test environment.

Running one Kubernetes cluster is complex enough. Running five across AWS, GCP, and an on-prem data center without a unified control plane gets painful fast. Kubernetes Federation v2 (KubeFed) was built to solve this problem: managing federated Kubernetes clusters from a single point of control and distributing workloads across regions and providers without duplicating YAML files for every environment.

OEM expectations have shifted. High performance is no longer enough, and systems must stay resilient for years or even decades across complex environments. Evolving cyberthreats and stricter regulations are increasing complexity. With legacy systems lasting longer and frameworks like the EU Cyber Resilience Act and IEC 62443 raising the bar, prevention alone no longer cuts it. Recovery readiness ensures fast, predictable restoration with minimal disruption.

Building a resilient CI/CD pipeline means protecting every piece of data that makes your code run. Your environment variables, secret tokens, and configuration files demand the exact same security as your core repositories. Traditional backup protocols leave these assets completely vulnerable to silent manipulation. If ransomware subtly modifies your archived backup, executing a restore will deploy the corrupted files straight into production.
