Run several operating systems Create shared pools of resources to

on a single machine. optimize your infrastructure.
Characteristics of Virtual Machines
Partitioning
 Run multiple operating systems on one physical machine
 Divide system resources between virtual machines

Isolation
VMware  Fault and security isolation at the hardware level
 Advanced resource controls preserve performance

Encapsulation
 Entire state of the virtual machine can be saved to files
 Move and copy virtual machines as easily as files

Hardware Independence
 Provision or migrate any virtual machine to any similar
or different physical server

High availability with VMware HA

VMware HA enables cost-effective high availability for all

applications

What is it?
• Automatic restart of virtual
machines in case of server failure
Customer Impact

X Resource Pool
• Cost effective high availability for
all applications
• No need for dedicated stand-by
hardware
• None of the cost and complexity
of clustering
Distribute Resource Scheduler (DRS)

Dynamic and intelligent allocation of hardware resources to

ensure optimal alignment between business and IT

What is it?
Business Demand
• Dynamic balancing of
computing resources across resource pools
• Intelligent resource allocation based on pre-
defined rules
Customer Impact
• Align IT resources with business priorities
• Operational simplicity; dramatically increase
system administrator productivity
• Add hardware dynamically to avoid over-
provisioning to peak load
Resource Pool
• Automate hardware maintenance
