VMware Workstation v11 LINUX x64

VMware Workstation ™ 11 continues the tradition of VMware, which provides technology professionals in the use of virtual machines each day depends on leading functionality and performance. With support for the latest versions of Windows and Linux, the latest processors and hardware, as well as connect to the VMware vCloud Air capabilities, it is to improve efficiency and save time and conquer the perfect tool for cloud computing.

Support Windows 10 technical preview

Workstation 11 is the evaluation and testing of the new operating system in an excellent way to secure isolated environment. Can run more than 200 operating systems, including the latest Microsoft Windows 10 technical preview. Workstation 11 fully supports the latest Microsoft operating systems from Windows® 8.1 Update for the desktop to the server for Windows 2012 R2. For running the latest Linux distributions organizational and technical users, Workstation 11 support Ubuntu 14.10, Red 7, CentOS 7, Fedora 21, Debian 7.6 and other systems. With Workstation 11, you can create nested hypervisor to run Hyper-V or VMware ESXi and vSphere, can be trained to build, demonstrate and test the ultimate vSphere lab.

Support for the latest processors

Workstation 11 supports the latest Intel 64-bit x86 processors, including the new Haswell microarchitecture can achieve the highest performance. Optimized Workstation 11 by taking advantage of the new main Haswell expansion modules, compared with Workstation 10, CPU-intensive operations can performance multimedia processing, encryption / decryption and other demanding performance testing up to a 45 percent increase.

You can create a powerful virtual machine

Use Workstation 11, you can now have up to 16 to create a virtual CPU, 8 TB virtual disks and virtual machines 64 GB of memory to run in a virtual environment the most demanding applications. Now, you can assign up to a virtual machine to 2 GB of memory, so the processing power of graphics-intensive applications to new heights. With powerful 3D graphics capabilities and support for OpenGL 2.1 and DirectX 9.0c Shader Model 3 graphics, Workstation enables users to easily run AutoCAD or SolidWorks and other performance requirements of extremely demanding 3D applications.

Support for the latest laptops and tablet PCs

Workstation 11 has been optimized to support higher resolution displays, such as the new QHD laptops and tablet PCs used in x86 + (3200 × 1800) display. The new Microsoft Surface Pro 3 features combined with the Workstation virtual accelerometer, gyroscope, compass and ambient light sensors, can make the application running in a virtual machine responds when the user operate the Tablet PC. In addition, Workstation 11 supports high-definition audio with 7.1 surround sound, USB 3.0 and Bluetooth, making use of the latest hardware breeze.



Workstation 11 is now available to VMware's vCloud Air connection, so you can extend outward inside the virtual machines in the cloud. Easily connect to the vCloud Air and upload directly from Workstation 11 interface, run and view the virtual machine. You can also easily drag and drop virtual machine smoothly between internal cloud PC running vSphere, ESXi, or other Workstation instance.

User interface improvements

Workstation 11 provides an updated user interface that makes use of virtual machines faster and easier, regardless of the virtual machine is running locally or in the cloud running on your PC. Workstation 11 interface includes a simplified menu, live thumbnails, tabs, Preferences screen and has a search function for virtual machine library. The new "Unity" mode optimization continues to strengthen in the Workstation 11 in either run as a host or a client experience when Windows 8.1.

Improve usability and productivity

Workstation 11 by a new shortcut feature improves ease of use when using a virtual machine, so you can just click on the desktop you can navigate to a virtual machine. The new EFI option allows you to replace the more traditional methods to create and start BIOS Workstation virtual machine, thus improving on the new and future versions of the operating system to support efficient. Use Workstation 11 "Virtual Machine Wizard", you can easily install a new operating system and optimized drivers, either from the CD or installing from an ISO image. In terms of display virtual machine, Workstation 11 making multi monitor setup easier than ever, whether you are using 2, 3 or 10 monitors.

Protect your work and save time

Use Workstation 11, you can use the snapshot and clone capabilities to protect virtual machines and save valuable time when using virtual machines. Snapshot feature may retain a state of the virtual machine, so you can always return to this state. Cloning feature makes it easy to copy Workstation virtual machine, and you can create an unlimited number of virtual machines directly on the basis of the reference copy of the installation and configuration on. Linked clone is a complex set of copy faster, easier, more efficient way, suitable for testing and custom presentation. Making a linked clone virtual machine shared with the parent virtual disk copies of virtual machines, and its advantage is the disk space occupied by much less than a full clone.

Restricted Virtual Machine

Create and control your virtual machine-related strategies, and in the Workstation 11 virtual machine containers provide limited application for end users. By restricting access Workstation virtual machine settings (such as drag and drop, copy and paste as well as connecting a USB device) to protect the company's content. In addition, you can Workstation 11 virtual machine encryption and password protection to ensure that unauthorized users can not tamper with the enterprise virtual machine settings.



Set the expiration time of the virtual machine

For short-term projects assigned to employees, temporary employees, or simply to assess the delivery of software, Workstation allows you to create a predefined date and time of expiration of the restricted virtual machine. After starting the virtual machine at the specified time interval query server, which will be limited by the virtual machine's policy file is stored in the current system time as a trusted timestamp last. The virtual machine will expire automatically suspended and will not be restarted without administrator intervention.

VM cross compatibility

VMware Workstation provides compatibility across the product portfolio and across different platforms. Use Workstation 11, you can create a virtual machine capable of running across the VMware product portfolio, or create a limited virtual machine can be used in VMware Fusion Pro and VMware Player Pro ™ in.

VMware Workstation transforms the way technical professionals develop, test, demonstrate and deploy software by running multiple x86-based operating systems simultaneously on the same PC. Built on 15 years of virtualization excellence and winner of more than 50 industry awards, VMware Workstation takes desktop virtualization to the next level by giving users an unmatched operating system support, rich user experience and incredible performance.
