Are you a UC provider seeking an alternative to traditional LXCs (Linux Containers)? 

Look no further, because SERVERware 4.5 has introduced a game-changing feature that allows Kernel-based Virtual Machines (KVMs) to serve as versatile VPS engines, revolutionizing your virtualization experience.

SEE WHAT ELSE IS NEW IN SERVERware 4.5

Performance Meets Security

KVM VPSs may offer slightly different performance levels compared to LXC-hosted ones, but what sets them apart is their superior security options.

While LXC relies on shared resources and potentially exposes your clients to security risks, KVM ensures that each VPS operates in its fully virtualized environment. This is a superior approach to partitioning resources and safeguarding your clients’ data. 

In today’s security-conscious business landscape, this is a game-changer. Your clients’ data and operations remain protected by high-level safeguards, offering you the peace of mind and confidence you need to excel in the UC provider arena.

Empower Your Clients with Efficiency

With KVM hosted VPSs, your clients can still enjoy all the core functionalities they’re accustomed to. From easy replication and seamless backups to flexible removal options, managing VPSs is highly efficient. 

SERVERware 4.5 ensures that your clients have the tools they need to succeed, making you their go-to provider.

Demystifying KVM – Your Competitive Edge

KVM, short for Kernel-based Virtual Machine, is aimed to be an integral part of SERVERware’s diverse technology.

It’s based on Firecracker, an open-source virtualization technology designed explicitly for creating and managing secure, multi-tenant container services. This technology provides better isolation, enhanced security, and a competitive edge for your business.

The Power of Open Standards

SERVERware’s implementation of KVM allows you to run unmodified Linux containers as VPSs, including popular options like PBXware and Docker containers fetched as OCI images from Docker Hub and similar sources. 

Plus, you have the freedom to pack and distribute service software using open standards and tools, empowering your business like never before.

Better Isolation, Less Exposure

With KVM, each VPS becomes a fully emulated or virtualized machine, offering better isolation and reduced exposure to malicious software or user behavior. 

VPSs using KVM as their engine can now safely change engines from LXC to KVM, be replicated, taken over, backed up, restored, moved between hosts, or change partitions. KVM VPSs even provide call stats and secure web browser access through the TTY terminal.

Expanding Horizons with Virtual Networks

SERVERware doesn’t stop at security and performance. We’ve added support for virtual networks for KVM VPSs, enhancing connectivity options for your clients. 

Moreover, KVM VPSs can now fetch PBXware licenses, just like their LXC counterparts. In short, all the functionalities available for VPSs running on LXC engines are seamlessly accessible with KVM engines as well.

Leveraging OCI for Endless Possibilities

The Open Container Initiative (OCI) opens the doors to a world of possibilities. It’s an open format for distributing and running software services, enabling your clients to host a richer range of ready-to-run services on SERVERware. 

Whether it’s web servers, databases, or VOIP services like PBXware, OCI empowers you to expand your service offerings and support your operations more efficiently.

Streamlined Service Delivery

The ability to switch to KVM virtualization per VPS offers enhanced security and isolation for applications, making it perfect for security-focused businesses. 

By providing a secure hosting environment and isolating applications, potential security vulnerabilities can be prevented from spreading. This enables you to cater to a broader range of clients and their unique security needs.

Hybrid Cloud Solutions

Enterprises can leverage SERVERware’s infrastructure features to create hybrid cloud solutions that can run both containerized and non-containerized workloads. 

This flexibility allows for more efficient resource utilization and cost savings, making SERVERware a versatile choice for businesses of all sizes.

Unleash the Potential

In summary, SERVERware 4.5’s KVM as VPS Engines feature is your ticket to unleashing your UC provider potential. 

With enhanced security, seamless functionality, and endless possibilities, you can attract a broader client base and grow your UC provider business like never before.

According to a number of press reports, Senegal is now preparing for the launch of its first satellite, initially scheduled for 2021 and postponed to 2023 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

The Ecofin news agency says that late last week the country’s Ministry of Higher Education, Research, and Innovation (MESRI) announced that the satellite would be delivered on 10 November. The launch date will then be announced by the government.

The construction of this satellite, which will be called GAINDESAT, results from a partnership agreement signed with the Centre Spatial Universitaire de Montpellier (CSUM).

CSUM is a leading European centre dedicated to bringing together resources and skills in the engineering, production, operation, testing and application of nanosatellites. It offered its assistance to the Senegalese engineers and technicians who built GAINDESAT.

This initiative is part of the implementation of Senegal’s national space programme called SENSAT, which aims to aid the country’s socio-economic development through the design and operation of space tools.

SENSAT and CSUM will partner with the digital platform RIDE!space to integrate the satellite into Vigoride, an orbital transfer vehicle (OTV) supplied by Momentus, a company that offers space infrastructure and transportation services.

Last May the Senegalese government announced that it was finalising the construction of a space control centre in partnership with France’s Centre national d’études spatiales and aerospace company ArianeGroup. The centre will be used to prepare the satellite for launch.

With the help of GAINDESAT Senegal aims to enhance its ability to address critical challenges such as disaster management and agricultural productivity by harnessing the potential of satellite technology and artificial intelligence.

At Ultra-Broadband Forum 2023 (UBBF 2023), which kicked off on 12^th October in Dubai, the 10 Gbps City Initiative was launched jointly by the UAE Telecommunications and Digital Government Regulatory Authority (TDRA), Omdia, etisalat by e&, MTN South Africa, Huawei, and others.

This initiative calls for the construction of fully connected 10 Gbps cities to provide ubiquitous network experience, accelerate the digital-intelligent transformation of industries, and boost digital productivity.

During a keynote speech, speakers shared the advanced concepts involved in implementing the 10 Gbps City. Eng. Saif Bin Ghelaita, Executive Director for Technology Development Affairs of the TDRA, pointed out that governments should play a leading role in the construction of ultra-broadband infrastructure to ensure inclusive and universal digital services and bridge digital divides in the intelligent world. Local governments and regulators can accelerate the formulation of supportive policies for 10 Gbps City pilots.

Richard Mahony, Vice President of Omdia, noted that the 10 Gbps City is a new type of infrastructure critical to implementing national digital strategies and boosting the digital economy. The construction of 10 Gbps cities involves delivering 10 Gbps to individuals, homes, enterprises, and campuses. It also involves 400GE/800GE converged transport networks and AI DCNs related to the preceding four 10 Gbps access scenarios.

Many cities around the world have released their 2030-oriented digital economy strategies. Cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, and Riyadh are actively exploring ways to implement 10 Gbps City and 10 Gbps Society to unleash the new momentum of the digital economy.
