VMware, Inc., a global leader in cloud infrastructure and business mobility,
announced new versions of VMware Fusion solutions and the 10th anniversary
of delivering enterprise-quality Windows virtualization on Mac. VMware Fusion
10 Pro, designed for technical professionals that want to build, test and
demonstrate Mac, Windows and Linux applications on a Mac, will include advanced
capabilities that continue to evolve the solution to support technical
professionals and developers. VMware Fusion 10 designed for personal use, will
offer Touch Bar support, enhanced GPU and 3D graphics performance, and an
updated user interface (UI) to leverage the latest innovations in Mac.
Together, the solutions will enable Mac users to take full advantage of the
innovative features and capabilities available in Mac, Linux and Windows 10.
“VMware has a proven track record over the last 10 years of
delivering innovations in VMware Fusion for the ultimate Windows on Mac
experience,” said Dave Grant, vice president, Product Marketing, End-User
Computing, VMware. “Originally designed for personal use, Fusion has evolved to
become increasingly capable for IT professionals and the latest Fusion 10 Pro
will deliver many capabilities that will suit development and operation teams.”
VMware Fusion 10 Pro – More Enterprise Capable Than Ever Before
VMware
Fusion 10 Pro will provide the foundation
of modern development and testing, enabling multi-operating system development,
multi-operating system testing, and integration into DevOps/agile development
workflows. Fusion enables IT professionals and developers to run virtual
machines that are compatible with corporate data centers from a Mac to perform
tasks such as data center design and testing, data center management, network
design and testing, and application development and testing.
Support for REST APIs will offer a new interface for managing
virtual machines (VMs) remotely and programmatically. This will enable
developers and enterprises to integrate Fusion into a modern development and
testing pipeline by performing VM operations including VM inventory management,
VM power management, cloning, networking, configuration, and IP and MAC address
gathering, among others. Developers will also benefit from integration with
VMware PhotonOS that will support the most common container formats, runtime
engines and scheduling frameworks for seamless migration of containers-based
applications from development to production.
Support for Microsoft's new Virtualization Based Security
features, such as Credential Guard for Windows 10 virtual machines, unified
extensible firmware interface (UEFI) Secure Boot, and a virtual Trusted
Platform Module will add to existing security features in Fusion 10 Pro – delivering
a more secure development environment than ever before. Enhanced networking
controls will enable management of network address translation
(NAT) rules, network packet loss and latency simulation, and renaming of VM
networks for better organization. All this will be managed from a completely
updated user interface that provides a more modern, informative, and
streamlined experience for users.
Lastly, support for MacBook Touch Bar will enable users to easily
access commonly used controls using the latest MacBook hardware features.
