vStorage Thin Provisioning optimizes storage costs through the most efficient use of storage in virtual environments. Storage requests more often than not are usually overestimated by users mostly to avoid having to go through the request/approval process. With vStorage Thin Provisioning, IT depts can now assure business users of storage space availability while deferring the actual costs of purchasing storage to when it is really needed. Full reporting and alerting on allocation and consumption ensure that virtual machines don’t really run out of storage, Storage VMotion and Volume Grow (next slide) ensure that virtual machines can either migrate to datastores with additional storage or volumes can be increased in size when consumption approaches allocation. * * * vNetwork is a collection of networking technologies for optimally integrating networking and I/O functionality into VMware Infrastructure. vNetwork Distributed Switch enables the network to be treated as an aggregated resource… much like what we do with compute and storage already today vDS moves away from single host virtual switch management, and moves management up to the datacenter level. With vDS, no longer will you be configuring virtual switches on every host. Instead, with vDS, you’ll be managing a single global entity, with a single namespace and globally assured configuration, and you’ll be attaching VM’s only to that cluster or datacenter-wide entity. VDS is a new type of virtual switch which spans the entire Virtual Infrastructure…analogous in many ways to a “stacked switch”. Today, when virtual machines migrate from one host to another, Network statistics don’t follow the VM after it migrates Value-added services like inline filtering, failover teaming, etc. may not follow the VM By creating vDS, a single cluster-wide global virtual switch, we lay the foundation for a new generation of properly mobile, networking services. vDS lays a virtual networking foundation for both VMware and partn
