Virtualization Changed the Storage Workload
OS
App
Physical Virtual Infrastructure
• 1:1 app to datastore
• Predictable, single QoS
• N:1 app to datastore
• Random, multi-QoS
Hypervisor

Software-Defined Storage
Virtualized Data Plane
App-centric Data Services
Policy-Driven Control Plane
VMware Approach to Software-Defined Storage
Extensible framework
leveraged by ecosystem
to deliver VM-centric
snapshots, clones,
replication, backup, etc.
Common management
model based on VM-level
policies for automated
placement, balancing,
data services provisioning
Hypervisor-based pooling
of heterogeneous storage
resources optimized for
VM consumption

VMware Virtual SAN: Software Defined Storage with Unparalleled Efficiency and Agility
…………….
vSphere
VSAN
VMware vCenter Server
• Virtual SAN clusters direct-attached solid state drives and hard disks from multiple servers to create shared storage
• Provides converged compute & storage
• Policy based management for self-tuning VM-centric storage
• Scale-out architecture with built-in Flash-based caching
• Integrated with existing vSphere constructs
• Radically simple storage designed for virtual machines
• Fast, resilient, dynamic
• Starts small with linear scaling of performance, capacity, and cost

Business Drivers
Traditional Architecture Requires a Compromise
• Distributed Architecture is often more performant
• Centralized Architecture is usually cheaper
Hyper Converged Architecture Offers A Middle Ground
• Distributed Compute on a Hyper Converged Platform
• High Performance Advantages of Distributed Architecture
• Reduced Cost Due to Platform Convergence
Assumes Architectural Changes
• Not All Applications Are Appropriate
• Assumes “Cloud Generation” Architecture
• Requires Application Level Data Mobility (today)
One of Many Benefits of Hyper-Converged Architectures
