10 virtual appliances that can simplify your job

Thanks for the list Jack. I would like to learn of other appliances beyond these 10. I'd love to see a Top 50 or Top 100 list. Can you, or anyone else, suggest sites that provide lists and reviews of virtual appliances? Perhaps an entire download site of categorized appliances?

The Moodle one will eventually be a project of mine....

underoverflow - to your request - Unitrends (disclaimer, I work at Unitrends) recently released enterprise-class (virtual and physical) data protection virtual appliances for VMware and Hyper-V. Up to 4 VMs free; unrestricted 30-day license for trials, etc. URL is at http://www.unitrends.com/unitrends-enterprise-backup/free-version?src=index

Nice list! To underoverflow's comment, BitNami offers a library of free appliances (as well as native installers and templates / AMIs for the Amazon Cloud) for the top open source applications. We currently offer over 50 apps, including the Moodle appliance listed above (we also have LAMP, Drupal and WordPress, which are also listed above.) All of the installers, appliances and cloud templates are fully configured, free, and ready-to-run. We also update them very regularly, so you can always get access to the best and latest versions. You can get them from: http://bitnami.org/stacks Note that they are categorized by type of application on the left hand side of the page to make it easier to find new apps.

Nice list of available Virtual Appliances...

Don't just be a consumer of Virtual Appliances, but also be a creator of your own Virtual Appliances. Flexera Software LLC offers Virtual Appliance building solution (for Amazon and VMware clouds) with InstallAnywhere 2012 release. With a very minimal configuration, you can get your appliance ready and running in the respective clouds. The solution is available at http://www.flexerasoftware.com/resources/trials.htm#installanywhere
