Product Announcement: NSX-T 2.4

Wed, 27 Feb 2019 08:10:30 +0000

It’s that time of the year again where we have a new NSX release on our hands, specifically NSX-T 2.4. I’m still really new to NSX-T, and I can tell I have a lot to learn, but I’m hoping 2.4 is the release I’m able to really start to sink my teeth in with.

If you’ve been in and around the NSX product, you’ll be aware there are two main flavours of NSX; NSX-V (now called NSX for vSphere, I think, or maybe NSX for Data Center(?)) and NSX-T. NSX-V was built around VMware vSphere and has a reliance on vCenter Server. NSX-T is the big brother with many more capabilities, has been build with understanding and support for modern technologies such as containers and multi-cloud, and does not have a reliance on any of the core VMware platform, but of course it does interoperate really well with core VMware technologies. It has been known for a while, but maybe not verbalised, that the effort and development from VMware is heavily focused on NSX-T.
