VMware Project North Star (Thinstall) Beta 2 available
May 4, 2008
VMware is pleased to announce the release of VMware Project North Star (Thinstall) Beta 2, now available for download on the VMware Web site. This release marks a significant milestone in their efforts to integrate Thinstall with other VMware products, and includes new features that simplify deployment and strengthen security for “Thinstalled” applications.
New Features in Beta 2:
This feature allows administrators to dynamically link Thinstall packages to one another, making it possible to create separate packages for interdependent components (such as Java or .NET) and use them across multiple Thinstall packages.
This feature allows customers to execute updates to virtual applications through a secure Internet connection, increasing application portability while reducing security and patch risks to offline and out-of-network machines.
