"VMWare Infrastructure - Data center management and optimization suite"
VMware Infrastructure is the most widely deployed software suite for optimizing
and managing industry standard IT environments through virtualization – from the
desktop to the data center. VMware Infrastructure virtualizes networking, storage
and processor resources enabling multiple operating systems and applications to
run on a virtual machine and share physical resources. Virtualization has many benefits
for small to medium size businesses as well as businesses at the enterprise level.
By running workloads on virtual machines users can consolidate the workloads running
on multiple servers onto one physical server. The average utilization of a server
is between 5%-15%, VMWare Infrastructure increases server utilization to 60%-80%.
Maximizing your server utilization results in the reduced amount of hardware, power,
cooling and space costs by approximately 50%.
Another benefit of virtual machines is that they reduce IT professional's time
and costs. Virtual machines can be stored as templates and deployed in 15-30 minutes,
as opposed to the 20-40 man hours it takes to rebuild servers and load applications.
VMware Infrastructure enables users to reduce the time for provisioning new infrastructure
to minutes with sophisticated automation capabilities. Virtual appliances combine
simple deployment of software with the benefits of pre-configured devices. Centralize
control and responsibility for hardware resources while giving business units and
application owners complete control over how resources are utilized.
VMWare infrastructure also provides Advanced Business Continuity Protection at Lower
Cost, delivers high availability for critical applications with cost-effective virtualization-based
solutions. With VMware Infrastructure, customers can implement a unified disaster
recovery platform that allows many production virtual machines to be recovered in
the event of hardware failure without investing in costly one-to-one mapping of
production and DR hardware.
What are the Benefits of VMware Infrastructure?
VMware Infrastructure uses virtualization technology to deliver transformative capital
and operating cost savings as well as increased operational efficiency, flexibility
and IT service levels.
- VMware Infrastructure delivers measurable savings in
both capital and operating costs Increases hardware utilization and reducing hardware
requirements with server consolidation ratios commonly exceeding ten virtual machines
per physical processor
Reduces the cost of rack space and power proportionate to the consolidation ration
achieved
Decreases labor cost by simplifying and automating labor and resource intensive
IT operations across disparate hardware, operating system and software application
environments
- VMware Infrastructure improve responsiveness, serviceability, availability and flexibility
of IT infrastructure
Enables broad-based, cost-effective application availability and business continuity
independent of hardware and operating systems
Enables continuous uptime and non-disruptive maintenance of IT environments with
live migration of entire running systems
Eliminates the need for cumbersome software installation and configuration with
virtual appliances
Accelerates the application development and deployment lifecycles
Improves responsiveness to business needs with instant provisioning and dynamic
optimization of application environments
Allows legacy systems to co-exist with new environments
