   > @andrijapanicsb , looks like a compatitor of the one mentioned in 
https://www.networkworld.com/article/4241265/fluidcloud-replaces-vddk-with-its-own-disk-copy-engine-for-vmware-exits.html

   @DaanHoogland you know me well enough - don't compare apples and oranges... 
;) 
   
   "The FluidCloud engine exports the VM disk using Network File Copy **(NFC)** 
through standard application programming interfaces (API) on the VMware ESXi 
hypervisor. It then streams the virtual machine disk (VMDK) file over the 
network to the destination. Omar said the export captures everything, with no 
functionality loss.
   
   **The engine does not do delta sync, so every export is a full export of the 
VM.**"
   
   Their stuff is a workaorund but uses NFS, My artefact is the 
libvixdisk.so.8.0.3 that you replace and off you go (HotAdd, NBD/NBDDSSL (via  
NFS) - 100% compatible with VDDK = so all tools previously designed to work 
with VMware VDDK now works with OpenVDDK. check the sites, numbers, 
compatibilityy etc. I will share this publicly, soon. Free and opensource.
