Srihari wrote to tell me about VMGLogix as follows ..
"Today managing and orchestrating computer
labs (by instructors, departments, students etc.) is a challenge for most
schools and Universities. The labs raise many management and use challenges – e.g., machines get
virus-ridden, they offer limited access (since all students will need to be
physically present in the labs, remote/distance learning is difficult), many
management problems (e.g., student quotas, leases on resources, policies for
access control etc.) and machines often become sources for distributing pirated
software or music etc.
Please take
a look at this movie to see how lab management can be made simple, policy
controlled, highly automated and offered as a self service environment (the
video shows an example use case of an instructor offering a course lab to
his/her students):
VMLogix
is offering the virtual lab management solution at no cost to Universities and
Educational Institutes worldwide. This can be used to manage and power a virtual lab for on-premise
virtualized environments and/or on the public cloud infrastructure – such as
Amazon."
