VMware ACE Flash demo
VMware ACE is built on the industry-proven VMware Workstation product and leverages VMware virtual machine technology to provide an isolated PC environment known as an “assured computing environment”. Using VMware ACE Manager, IT desktop managers create projects that include:
- A virtual machine, including an operating system, applications, and data
- An application to run the virtual machines
- A set of policies to control the lifecycle and capabilities of the virtual machine
From this project, IT desktop managers create a VMware ACE package that is distributed to end users via download, DVD, or CD media. VMware ACE enables end users to run an “assured computing environment” on their desktop or laptop PC.
