What’s Happened In the Last 2 years
Everybody is talking about “cloud” and “cloud scale”
Public clouds have changed the perception of VM provisioning
• From days to provision a VM to minutes
• IT is no longer the solution to the problem, it’s the problem
Your business has grown, your infrastructure needs to scale – FAST!
SLAs matter - some workloads are more important than others
![Page 6: VSP2360 VMware vCenter 5.0: What’s New, What’s Cool Name, Title, Company](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d9f5503460f94a89840/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

If you are the CIO!
You want to build a private cloud that is fits your business needs and org structure
You want more accountability, agility, etc.
Want to get more out of the data datacenter administrators
![Page 7: VSP2360 VMware vCenter 5.0: What’s New, What’s Cool Name, Title, Company](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d9f5503460f94a89840/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

If you are the datacenter architect!
You need the right set of interfaces to design your infrastructure quickly
You need to architect for the future• Increase in demand• Availability, Scalability
You need to architect for different SLAs
![Page 8: VSP2360 VMware vCenter 5.0: What’s New, What’s Cool Name, Title, Company](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d9f5503460f94a89840/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

If you are the datacenter administrator!
You have to guarantee SLAs now!
You are expected to do more with each passing day
Yesterday = 1000 VMs
Tomorrow = 10000 VMs
![Page 9: VSP2360 VMware vCenter 5.0: What’s New, What’s Cool Name, Title, Company](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d9f5503460f94a89840/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

The New vCenter Server Appliance!
The appliance reduces the TCO for vCenter significantly
Simplifies deployment and configuration
Streamlines patching and upgrades
Obviates need for Windows license
vCenter Server Appliance - Run vCenter as a Linux Virtual appliance
Benefits
![Page 14: VSP2360 VMware vCenter 5.0: What’s New, What’s Cool Name, Title, Company](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d9f5503460f94a89840/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Introducing vCenter Server Appliance
The vCenter Server Appliance (VCSA) consists of:
• A pre-packaged 64 bit application running on SLES 11
• A built in enterprise level database and support for a remote Oracle database (SQL Server is not support at this point)
• Limits are the same as vCenter on Windows
• Embedded DB - 5 hosts/50 VMs
• External DB - 1000 hosts/10000 VMs (64 bit)
• A web-based configuration interface
• Authentication through Active Directory
• VMware HA can be used to make VCSA highly available
![Page 15: VSP2360 VMware vCenter 5.0: What’s New, What’s Cool Name, Title, Company](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d9f5503460f94a89840/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

To Appliance, or not to Appliance… that is the question
The goal is parity between the appliance and conventional vCenter Server
• Scalability
• Manageability
• Performance
Advantages of the Appliance
• Upgrade
• Embedded Database
Roadmap
• Support for SQL Server on roadmap
• Linked Mode Support
