DEFENDO's total functionality now also runs under VMware ESX 3.5. Get all the well-known DEFENDO security modules under new software license brand "defendoVM" and run it as one virtual machine.

The cost effective use of very powerful VMware-recommended hardware platforms is one of the benefits in comparison with the original appliance concept. More performance and flexibility for various IT scenarios can be achieved by splitting-up the functions to two or more virtual machines. I. e. it makes sense to set the proxy- at the one and the mail-function at the other virtual machine. Now, in case of excessive spam waves, VMware allows you to assign more hardware resources to the forced virtual machine to prevent from delay and overload.

As a matter of fact defendoVM runs on the hardware platform already bought and set up for other virtualization purposes. That surely looks like an appropriate concept in times of global warming and GREEN IT.
