Virtualization Technology Overview
Old Model:Traditional x86
Architecture• Single OS image per machine
• Software and hardware tightly coupled
• Multiple applications often conflict
• Underutilized resources
Old model is challenging!
The Challenge
State of Infrastructure Today – Physical
Server Sprawl38 m physical servers by 2010 - 700% increase in 15 years$140 bn in excess server capacity - a 3-year supply
Power & Cooling
50c for every $1 spent on servers$29 bn in power and cooling industry wide
Operating Cost
$8 in maintenance for every $1 spent on new infrastructure20-30 : 1 server-to-admin ratio
Space Crunch
$1,000 /sqft$2,400 / server$40,000 / rack

What is Virtualization?
VMware provides hardware virtualization that presents a complete x86 platform to the virtual machine
Allows multiple applications to run in isolation within virtual machines on the same physical machine
Virtualization provides direct access to the hardware resources to give you much greater performance than software emulation
Virtualization Increases Hardware Utilization
Before VMware
Virtualization enables consolidation of workloads from underutilized servers onto a single server
to safely achieve higher utilization
After VMware
Key Properties of Virtual Machines
•Partitioning�Run multiple operating systems on one physical machine
�Divide system resources between virtual machines
•Partitioning
� Run multiple operating systems on one physical machine
� Divide system resources between virtual machines
Key Properties of Virtual Machines
•Isolation�Fault and security isolation at the hardware level
�Advanced resource controls preserve performance

ESX Server
ESX Server
• Deploy multiple virtual machines on a single physical server
• Market leading:
• Performance• Stability• Scalability• Cross-platform support
Non-Disruptive Capacity on Demand

From server boot to running VMs in Minutes
1. Power on server and boot into hypervisor
2. Configure Admin Password
3. (optional) Modify network configuration
4. Connect VI Client to IP Address
● Or manage with VirtualCenter
3i
VMware VMotion73% of VMware customers have implemented VMotion in production
• Live migration of virtual machines
• Zero downtime
VMware DRS
Resource Pool
Business Demand • Dynamic and intelligent allocation of hardware resources
• Ensure optimal alignment between business and IT
67% of VMware customers use DRS in production
Ensure High availability with VMware HA
Resource Pool
X• VMware HA
automatically restarts virtual machines when a physical server fails
21
Distributed Power Management (coming soon)
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
NEW!
Minimize power consumption while guaranteeing service levels
22
Storage VMotion
Storage independent live migration of virtual machine disks
● Zero downtime to virtual machines
● LUN independent● Supported for Fibre
channel SANs
NEW!
Storage VMotion minimizes planned downtime for storage
23
VMware Update Manager
Update Manager
● Eliminates manual tracking of patch levels of ESX Server hosts and virtual machines
● Automates enforcement of patch standards
● Reduces risk through snapshots and offline virtual machine patching
* Note: RHEL guests can only be scanned, not remediated

Non-disruptive ESX Server Patching with Update Manager and DRS
VMotionVMotion
Update Manager Update Manager patches entire DRS clusters
● Each host in the cluster enters DRS maintenance mode, one at a time
● VMs are migrated off, host is patched & rebooted if required
● VMs are migrated back on
● Next host is selected
25
Protect data with VMware consolidated backup
What is it?
Centralized agentless backup for virtual machines
Move backup out of the virtual machine
Eliminate backup traffic on the local area network
Pre-integrated with major 3rd-party backup products
Centralized file level backup enables easy & reliable data protection
