The virtual datacenter operating system

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 efficientlyProvides built in services to ALL applications such as availability, security and performance scalabilityFederated 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

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

“VMware already has had transformative impact on how we do things: our server farms are aggregated into clusters that act as a single large computer that can guarantee service levels to applications. We no longer worry about scheduling downtime for hardware maintenance, or worry about hardware failures. And all of that delivered while reducing the infrastructure cost per application by more than 50%.

How Do We Define The Cloud?

Cloud Computing according to VMware

Lightweight entry/exit service acquisition model

Consumption based pricing

Accessible over the internet

Scalable and elastic

Improved economics due to shared infrastructure and elasticity

Cloud computing comes into focus only when you think about… a way to increase capacity or add capabilities on the fly without

investing in new infrastructure, training new personnel, or licensing new software. Cloud computing encompasses any subscription-

based or pay-per-use service that, in real time… extends IT's existing capabilities.
