Virtualization
Complete Security & Compliance for Virtual EnvironmentsVyatta takes the concept of virtualization beyond just applications and operating systems and allows enterprise IT to also virtualize network components that were traditionally hardware bound. This application-centric approach to networking allows for complete migration of routing, firewall, VPN, IPS and more to virtual environments, ensuring that businesses can enforce the same security and compliance requirements of their physical network in next generation virtual environments.
Vyatta embraced the shift to virtualization as a network delivery platform with it’s first network virtual machine back in 2006. As the trend evolved, Vyatta has been at the leading edge of delivering networking to virtualization enabled devices and architectures such as:
| Network Virtualization Applications | |
|---|---|
| Data Center Virtualization | Infrastructure consolidation requires security and traffic management with the same visibility and protection as physical networks. Vyatta Network OS virtual machines deliver virtualization optimized firewall, VPN, IPS, web filtering, routing and more for VMware, Xen, XenServer and Redhat KVM. |
| Edge Consolidation | Special-purpose devices are giving way to best-of-breed, multi-function, integrated solutions enabled by virtualization platforms. Vyatta has partnered with RIverbed and others to deliver next generation branch office solutions using the Vyatta Network OS for advanced routing and security. |
| Cloud Computing | Moving infrastructure, workloads and applications to and from the cloud requires flexible, virtualization optimized networking and security. Vyatta Network OS is ideal for delivering an on-demand network virtualization and security solution to protect data in the cloud and between clouds. |
