Server virtualization technology has entered mainstream data centers…
More than 50 percent of all virtual servers are running production-level applications, including the most business critical workloads
Virtualization is a Mainstream Technology Today
Enterprises that do not leverage virtualization technologies will spend 25 percent more annually for hardware, software, labor and space for Intel servers

Local Customers – Success with VMware
Virtualization saves tax giant $1M - H&R Block estimates it has saved about $1 million on hardware purchases since rolling out virtualization in June 2005
-IDG, April 14 2006
- Ron Armstrong – UMB Senior Administrator
VMware software has increased UMB's flexibility in delivering servers to meet business needs. Instead of six weeks to order and set up new hardware for new projects, UMB is able to deploy a virtual machine within a day
VMware software has helped us achieve on average a 40 to 1 consolidation ratio. Last year 95% of our Intel Server Growth went on to VMware Virtual Machine.

ESX Server: Return on Investment
Reduce hardware costs up to 53%Reduce operations costs up to 79%
Reduce total TCO up to 64%Fully utilize server capacity
Deploy new services efficientlyManage computing resources strategically
"We're running 20 virtual machines on one four-way system, and it's handling everything from CRM applications and security to application development and testing, all of which has saved us huge amounts of time and money in hardware costs.”

Consolidation (P2V)
• Create an image of the source machine with built-in imaging or your preferred third party imaging tool (Ghost, DriveImage, RDP, etc.)
• P2V tool (e.g. VMware P2V Assistant) performs all necessary disk controller and driver substitutions so the VM can be booted
• User can manually modify any additional settings before bringing the VM into production
20Copyright © 2004 VMware, Inc. All rights reserved.
• e.g. ESX Server
• Lean virtualization-centric kernel
• Service Console for agents and helper applications
VMware Virtualization Architectures
• e.g. GSX Server, Workstation, ACE
• Installs and runs as an application
• Relies on host OS for device support and physical resource management

VMware VirtualCenter Overview
•Manage hundreds of servers from one location
•Instantly provision new servers with standardized templates
•Eliminate scheduled downtime with zero-downtime maintenance
•Dynamically move workloads across servers without service interruption

22Copyright © 2004 VMware, Inc. All rights reserved.
Virtual Machine Dashboard
• Monitor and report on each VM’s resource usage
• Use pre-built alerts to proactively identify resource contention trends
• Set triggers and alerts for key performance and availability metrics
• Quickly identify good candidate hosts when provisioning new VMs
Track VM-specific usage metrics to identify performance bottlenecks

Workload Capacity Planning
Enable a Virtual Scale-Up solution from multiple server blades
• Achieve 60-80% average utilization• Share headroom across multiple
server blades to handle spikes• Applications are now mobile across
server blades• Transparently shift systems across
blades to match complementary workloads

Key VMware Solutions
Server Consolidation and Containment – Eliminate server sprawl by deploying systems into virtual machines that can run safely and move transparently across shared hardware
Test and Development – Rapidly provision and re-provision test and development servers; store libraries of pre-configured test machines
Enterprise Desktop – Secure unmanaged PCs without compromising end user autonomy by layering a security policy in software around desktop virtual machines
Business Continuity – Reduce the cost and complexity of business continuity by encapsulating entire systems into single files that can be replicated and restored onto any target server

Comparing the Options
Implement Virtual infrastructure• Optimizes utilization, availability, manageability• Delivers maximum ROI from hardware• Excellent solution with Blades

Web Server Web Server
AD Server
Physical consolidation • e.g. racks, blades• Saves space, but does not improve 7%
average utilization. (Utilization may reduce further due to faster Blade processors)
Application consolidation • Risk of application conflicts, resource
contention, DLL issues

Backup Options with VMs
Back-up each VM- Agent resides inside each VM exactly like your physical servers today
- File Level Back-up & Restore
Whole Server Backup- Install Back-up software inside the ESX Server Console
- Reduce Back-up licenses
- System level Back-up Restore
SAN Based- Use SAN snapshot
- SAN handles checkpointing and Tape archiving automatically
- Fast Block copy

• Difference in hardware between main data center and DR data center
• Limited/expensive testing costs
• First-come/first-serve outsourcing options in event of regional disaster
• High real estate/leasing costs
• Time-consuming/incomplete logical synching
Typical DR Scenario
Data Center
37Copyright © 2004 VMware, Inc. All rights reserved.
DR Scenario with VMware
• Restore image into VM using P2V migration
• Store VM’s at DR site
• Hardware at DR site doesn’t have to be exact replica
• If the Server is certified for ESX Server… it will run any VM!
