Flexible, dynamic, and well-managed private cloud
StandardizedStandardize your approach to application and OS updating. Use a controlled process to update services through service templates
OptimizedHelp ensure that the services running in your private cloud get the resources they need, and that your cloud dynamically reallocates resources as demand changes
ControlledHelp protect your private cloud infrastructure by setting limits on your clouds while ensuring the correct application owners have access to their cloud resources
Right-sizedReport on the current utilization of your private cloud, trend usage over time, and forecast future needs
Optimizing cloud utilization through dynamic optimizationVirtual Machine ManagerDynamic OptimizationPower Optimization
Why dynamic optimization?
As application workloads change, I need my private cloud to change resource utilization accordingly
At the end of each quarter, my finance application needs more resources, but other times it is mostly idle
I need to ensure all applications get the resources they need when they need them, and I can’t watch this
all the time
If I am not using resources, I don’t want to waste the energy to run the infrastructure. I want power only on what I need
Resource utilization
Dynamic optimization in action
Time of day
Virtual Machine Manager
Optimization threshold
Dynamic optimization fundamentalsLive migrationKeeps cluster balanced
Avoids VM downtime
Supports heterogeneous clusters Microsoft Hyper-V VMware vSphere Citrix XenServer
Managed resourcesConsiders CPU, memory, disk IO, network IO
Optimizes when resource moves above resource threshold
Considers entire cluster
OptionsManual or automatic optimization
User-controlled frequency
Configurable aggressiveness
Dynamic optimization handles your ever-changing workloads
Power optimization in actionResource utilization

Virtual Machine Manager
Power optimization fundamentalsManaged resourcesConsiders CPU, memory, disk IO, and network IOOptimizes when resource moves below resource thresholdConsiders entire cluster
User-defined scheduleOptimized only within specified hours of the day
Enabled when dynamic optimization is set to “automated”
Power operationsUses live migration to move VMs off the host before powering down
Ensures that optimization will not overload remaining systems
Ensures that powering off will not violate cluster quorum requirement
Takes advantage of out-of-band management for power operations
Power optimization helps conserve energy in the datacenter
Controlling access to your cloudVirtual Machine Manager
Help protect your private cloud infrastructure in a shared environmentI want to ensure that application owners have self-service access to the resources they require
I need to apply resource quotas to my application owner
I need to share the private cloud resources and allow different application owners to use the same infrastructure
I want to control the type of self-service actions users can take

Simplifying application maintenanceTemplate-drivenProvide a single source of truth for service deploymentsUse Upgrade Domains to limit disruption of service during updates
In-place updatesChange application or template settings without replacing OS image
Change memory, update application package
Image-based updatesReplace old OS image with new OS image
Reinstall the application and restore the state

In-place updates
V1.0V1.5
1. Choose service template from library
2. Deploy an instance of the service
3. Copy the service template, update version number, and update application or configuration
4. Publish the template and set the deployed service to the new template
5. Apply the update while maintaining availability of the service through the use of Upgrade Domains

I need to know the utilization of my private cloud infrastructure, now
I need to trend my private cloud infrastructure usage over time
I need to forecast future private cloud infrastructure resource needs
I need to do all this with tools I am familiar with
