Lastly, Oracle said, the new VirtualBox comes with enhanced monitoring and management tools. On the security side, VirtualBox now offers AES 128/256-bit encryption for all VM data, logs and configuration files as default, without affecting performance, Oracle said. Meanwhile, the enhanced 3D support in VMs will enable users to leverage new capabilities such as DirectX 11 and OpenGL to run 3D applications such as computer-aided design software on VirtualBox VMs with superior performance. Similarly, the new automated VM builder helps to automate the creation of new VMs, saving significant time by completing the operation in less than a minute, while reducing the risk of errors during the setup process.
Users will be able to export a VM from any on-premises computer to OCI at the click of a button, without any need to configure the underlying infrastructure, Oracle said. The updates are aimed primarily at DevOps teams, which sometimes struggle with tasks such as configuring their VMs for the underlying cloud infrastructure, managing multiple physical systems, ensuring secure encryption and working across different platforms.īy integrating VirtualBox with OCI, DevOps teams will be able to centrally manage both development and production VMs running on Oracle Cloud-powered instances using any kind of operating system. Some of the most compelling are full integration with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, enhanced 3D support, an automated VM builder and full VM encryption. Oracle said the latest version of the software comes packed with new features.
#ORACLE VM VIRTUALBOX INSTALL#
Users can install an almost unlimited number of VMs, with the only limitations being disk space and memory. Each VM can execute its own operating system, such as Microsoft Windows, Linux or MS-DOS. With VirtualBox, it’s possible to set up multiple VMs on a single, physical computer and use them simultaneously, along with the actual machine. VMs, as they’re known, are computers whose hardware components are emulated by a host computer.
#ORACLE VM VIRTUALBOX UPDATE#
is rolling out a major update to its free open-source virtualization platform, Oracle VM VirtualBox.Īnnounced today, Oracle VM VirtualBox 7 is a cross-platform application that enables users to create, manage and run multiple virtual machines.
