2 weeks ago, ETH Zürich revealed VMScape, a new CPU side-channel attack. KVM and VMware are affected, Xen isn’t.

Not because Xen is flawless, but because its microkernel-like design puts security first.

[Vates @vatesfr]

We reviewed the recent NPM supply chain attack: Xen Orchestra production users (XOA or from source) are not affected: only dev environments could be at risk if yarn.lock was ignored.

[Xen Orchestra @xenorchestra]

🛰️ XO 5.110 is here!
10–20x faster VMware migrations ⚡
VEEAM closed beta with native XCP-ng ✅
First redesigned backup UI in XO 6 🎨
…and plenty more improvements!

If you’re in the @Veeam 100 Program, you can already try the new @xcpng plugin 🎉

We’re also running it internally to give feedback, so the next version will be rock solid. Native Vates ↔️ Veeam compatibility is on the way!

⚖️ Balance your workloads, boost performance.

The Load Balancing plugin in Xen Orchestra (similar to VMware DRS) automatically redistributes VMs across your pool to optimize resources.

We just refreshed the docs
