Beyond VI3 – VMware strategy for 2009

2009 – Gartner’s top 10 Strategic Developments

1. Virtualization2. Business Intelligence3. Cloud Computing4. Green IT5. Unified Communications6. Social Software and Social Networking7. Web Oriented Architecture8. Enterprise Mashups9. Specialized Systems10. Servers – Beyond Blades

Gartner Inc. has ranked virtualization as the No. 1 strategic technology for next year, not for its "tremendously obvious" ability to virtualize servers, but for its increasing capability to virtualize just about everything else in a data center

VMware Infrastructure – Key Solutions / Use Cases

Server Consolidation and Containment – Eliminate server sprawl by deploying systems into virtual machines

Test and Development – Rapidly provision and re-provision test and development servers; store libraries of pre-configured test machines

Enterprise Desktop – Secure unmanaged PCs. Alternatively, provide standardized enterprise desktop environments hosted on servers.

Business Continuity – Reduce the cost and complexity of business continuity by encapsulating entire systems files that can be replicated and restored onto any target server

Infrastructure Provisioning – Reduce the time for provisioning new infrastructure to minutes with sophisticated automation capabilities.

Legacy Application Re-hosting – Migrate legacy operating systems and software applications to virtual machines running on new hardware for better reliability

Solution Overview

Centralized Management with VirtualCenter

• Provision and boot virtual machines

• Monitor system availability and performance

• Automated notifications and email alerting

• Integrate SDK with existing management tools

• Secure the environment with robust access control

ESX Server 3i

Server boot to running virtual machines in minutes

Simplified management

No Linux command line skills required

No user accounts or passwords to create and maintain

No OS security hardening, antivirus, or backup effort required

Integrated, standards-based CIM providers for hardware management

Integration in hardware eliminates installation

Intuitive wizard driven start up experience dramatically reduces deployment time

Standards-based management of the underlying hardware

•Benefits:

Resource Pool

X

VMware DRS

Align IT resources with business priorities

Dynamically allocate resource to virtual machines.

Dramatically increase system administrator productivity

Enable system administrators to manage more resources

Automate hardware maintenance

Maintenance mode automatically migrates all virtual machines to other physical servers.

Dynamic and intelligent allocation of hardware resources to the highest priority virtual machines to ensure optimal alignment between business and IT

Resource Pool

Distributed Power Management (DPM)

Resource Pool

Business Demand

Power Off

Consolidates workloads onto fewer servers when the cluster needs fewer resources

Places unneeded servers in standby mode

Brings servers back online as workload needs increase

Minimizes power consumption while guaranteeing service levels

No disruption or downtime to virtual machines

Simplifies and automates disaster recovery workflows:

Setup, testing, failover

Provides central management of recovery plans from VirtualCenter

Turns manual recovery processes into automated recovery plans

Simplifies integration with 3rd-party storage replication

VMware Site Recovery Manager

Site Recovery Manager leverages VMware Infrastructure to transform disaster recovery

Makes disaster recovery rapid, reliable, manageable, affordable

The Next Generation of VirtualizationThe Virtual DataCenter Operating System (VDC OS)

VMware Infrastructure is extended to “Virtual DataCenter OS “in 2009

A Virtual DataCenter OS:

Aggregates server, storage and network hardware into a shared resource or ‘internal cloud’

Allocates this shared resource among applications precisely and efficiently

Provides built in services to ALL applications such as availability, security and performance scalability

Federates with external clouds so cloud computing is easily accessible for enterprises

VDC OS is to the entire datacenter what Windows and Linux are to a single server
