Softgrid - Differenze tra versione 4.1 SP1 e 4.2
Direttamente dal blog del team di Softgrid, ecco le differenze tra le due versioni:
SoftGrid 4.1 Service Pack 1
SoftGrid 4.1 SP1 is mostly a hotfix and critical updates release, improving overall system stability and compatibility. A noteworthy improvement is the ability to sequence applications using Side by Side assemblies (aka WinSxS), including Visual Studio Express and Office 2007, among many other applications from both third party ISV's and Microsoft. Expected availability is in the second quarter of this year and the release will be made available for download as soon as test is completed. We will release the Sequencer, Desktop Client, Terminal Server Client and Server at the same time.
SoftGrid 4.2
SoftGrid 4.2 builds on the 4.1 improvements by adding Windows Vista compatibility, both on the sequencer and client. There is not going to be a 4.2 version of the Server or the Terminal Server client as the moniker 4.2 is reserved for the components adding Windows Vista compatibility. We expect a final release some time around Q3 of this year. We expect 4.1 SP1 and 4.2 to maintain parity over time, the only exception being Windows Vista compatibility in the 4.2 components.
Cominciano già a girare informazioni sulla prossima versione denominata 4.5 che verrà rilasciata nel 2008 e sarà la prima veramente Microsoft nel senso che verrà riscritta seguendo gli standard Microsoft ed aggiungerà nuove feature tra cui l'interoperabilità tra bolle applicative!
Comunque per ora niente di certo, vedremo più avanti... Da un cliente stiamo già sperimentando la versione 4.2 denominata "technical preview" su client VISTA e devo dire che funziona molto bene!
