Workstation 9.0 – Released on August 23, 2012.Workstation 10.0 – Released on September 3, 2013.Workstation 11.0 – Released on December 3, 2014.Workstation 11.0 – Released on August 24, 2015.This new version follow a rapid release rate of the product (one per year, in the last years): The last two from my point of view are the most important: managing (partially) a vCenter Server (or also a single host) is pretty nice and useful if you don’t have the vSphere Client (there is the vSphere Web Client, but cannot be used on a single host and anyway Flash is becoming a huge limitation).įor vCloud Air the most important feature is the ability to move VM from Workstation to vCloud Air and vice-versa! This is very useful and it’s also enough smart to understand which VM you can move and which not (for example a virtual ESXi cannot be moved to vCloud Air).Īnd the expiring VM is something perfect for labs, combined with the improvements in snapshots (and auto-snapshots) and also in linked clones. More integration with vSphere and vCloud Air.User Interface with tear away tabs (you can create a whole new Workstation instance when you need to work with multiple virtual machines).IPv6-to-IPv4 Network Address Translation (6to4 and 4to6).Performance Improvements for encrypted VM Suspend, Resume, and Snapshot.Enhanced Connectivity to takes advantage of the latest hardware supporting HD audio with 7.1 surround sound, USB 3.0, and Bluetooth devices making it easy to get your new webcam, headset, or printer connected in a virtual machine.Ready for the Latest Hardware to take advantage of the latest Intel based tablets with Workstation virtual tablets sensors.Ready for High Resolution Displays to support high resolution 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) displays for Desktops and QHD+ (3200×1800) displays used in laptops and x86 tablets.As a host OS is now supported ONLY a 64-bit OS (Windows OR Linux).New OS Support including Windows 10, but also Ubuntu 15.04, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.1, Fedora 22.This split partially match the same on Fusion where there are two different editions. There are a lot of news related to this new version, but one is about the two different editions: Workstation Pro and Workstation Player (formerly known as Player Pro).
