Run a Cloud on Your PC​

Workstation enables you to build a cloud on your laptop. You can run VMware’s Micro Cloud Foundry and other cloud infrastructures such as Apache’s OpenStack. You can also run Big Data applications from companies like Cloudera including the Apache™ Hadoop™ software library.​

​

Take Your Productivity to the Next Level​

Run applications on multiple operating systems including Linux, Windows and more at the same time on the same PC without rebooting. Evaluate and test new operating systems, applications and patches in an isolated environment. Demonstrate complex software applications on a single laptop in a repeatable, reliable manner. Rich integration with Visual Studio, Eclipse and the SpringSource Tool Suite make it incredibly easy to test applications on multiple platforms. Simply drag and drop virtual machines to move them between your PC and VMware vSphere.​

Run Your Most Demanding Applications​

VMware Workstation takes advantage of the latest hardware to replicate server and desktop environments. Create virtual machines with up to 8 virtual processors or 8 virtual cores, 2 TB virtual disks and up to 64 GB of memory per virtual machine to run the most demanding applications. In addition, Workstation has support for HD audio with 7.1 surround sound, SuperSpeed USB (USB 3.0) and Bluetooth.​

​

And for those times when you need it, virtual processors that support Intel VT-x or AMD-V capabilities enable you to run 64-bit virtual machines within VMware vSphere or Microsoft Hyper-V Server running in a Workstation virtual machine. Workstation 9 introduces virtual performance counters that allow developers to use profiling tools such as Intel’s VTune to analyze the performance of software running inside the Virtual machine.​

​

Share the Benefits by Sharing Virtual Machines​

Sharing a virtual machine is the quickest way to share and test applications with your team in a more production-like environment. Run VMware Workstation as a server to share virtual machines with your teammates, department or organization. VMware Workstation provides enterprise caliber control over user access.​

The Best 3D Graphics​

VMware Workstation was the first to support 3D graphics in virtualized environments including the Microsoft Windows Aero user interface. Run even more 3D applications with support for DirectX 9.0c Shader Model 3 and OpenGL 2.1 3D graphics in Windows and Linux virtual machines.​

Workstation 9 includes support for the new Windows Metro interface, significant performance and rendering improvements to better support professional graphical applications such as AutoCAD and Solidworks, Anti-Aliasing, OpenGL 2.1 for Linux operating systems and even an improved graphics driver for Windows XP.​
