XBMC 13.0 Gotham rises

xbmc-gotham-13_0-splash

The dark night of waiting is finally over. Because here it is. The stable release of XBMC 13.0 Gotham edition. It has been months of hard work, improvements and testing since the 12.x releases. There have been around 530 commits (chunks of code change) done by 51 developers during this time. Also a large group of translators who aided in making the user interface available in your local language. So we would like to thank every one, inside and outside of Team XBMC for their hard work and effort to make this possible. Not to forget all users who have been using the monthly and nightly builds, helping us test this upcoming release, and all third-party software libraries we use.

The past year we have kept you informed with our monthly blog posts of all the exciting new features added to this final release. Now, let’s review a few of those features we’re particularly excited about.

Features

Home View

As the information age rolls forward, even the most productive users struggle to keep up. With business-critical data housed in so many systems and places, the simplest task requires switching between a multitude of applications. We think there’s a better solution than Alt-Tab to this digital-age challenge. Novell GroupWise gives you a Home View—a personal productivity dashboard that consolidates the tools and web applications you interact with most for any given aspect of your work. From emails to your boss and daily appointments to RSS feeds and team workspaces, you can grab what matters most and put it front and center.

Messaging

Send and receive email messages, phone messages and reminder notes. And if this sounds passé, remember that email is still king when it comes to enabling personal productivity. In fact, a recent Osterman Research study found that the typical corporate user spends nearly 30% of an eight-hour workday doing email-related tasks. And this figure dwarfs the time spent using other communication tools. The bottom line is that messaging is the linchpin of personal productivity, and no one does it better than GroupWise.

Horizon View 5.3.1 Is Here and Supports VMware Virtual SAN

By Narasimha Krishnakumar, Product Management, End-User Computing, VMware

On behalf of everyone in the End-User-Computing (EUC) team at VMware, I’m proud to bring to you an exciting product announcement from EUC, just in time for the other Virtual-SAN-related announcements from VMware!

Today, VMware announced the General Availability (GA) of VMware Virtual SAN 5.5 and I’d like to take a moment to also introduce Horizon View 5.3.1. With this release, we are continuing the tradition of rapidly introducing innovations to market. And, now, the details:

 

  • Horizon View 5.3.1 supports VMware Virtual SAN 5.5. VMware Virtual SAN 5.5 is a component of VMware vSphere 5.5U1.
  • Horizon View 5.3.1 when used with VMware Virtual SAN 5.5 has been shown to reduce the total CAPEX cost of storage by up to 50%.
  • Horizon View 5.3.1 GA is intended for use with Virtual SAN 5.5 datastores only. There are no other new features in Horizon View 5.3.1 besides support for Virtual SAN 5.5.
  • Customers can purchase a Virtual SAN 5.5 license to deploy Horizon View 5.3.1.

Using Horizon View 5.3.1 with Virtual SAN 5.5

Using Horizon View 5.3.1 with Virtual SAN 5.5 is a simple three-step process:

1. Set up a cluster of vSphere 5.5U1 nodes (minimum 3) with at-least one SSD and one hard disk in each of the nodes. It is best to use the same number of drives on each ESXi node and keep the environment homogeneous.

2. Enable Virtual SAN using the vSphere Web Client interface as shown in Figure 2. Select Turn ON Virtual SAN.

3. Create a Horizon View desktop pool using the standard workflow. When presented with the option to select a datastore for virtual machines, select the datastore with type vsan as shown in Figure 3.

After these steps are performed, Horizon View 5.3.1 will start using the vsanDatastore to store the VMDKs of the virtual desktops, delivering an ultra-low desktop TCO and great end-user experience.

For more details on deploying and using Virtual SAN 5.5 with Horizon View 5.3.1, refer to the Knowledge Base article Horizon View 5.3.1 on VMware Virtual SAN – Quick Start Guide.
