ItвЂ™s become our server hosting platform of choice.вЂњ Carmine Iannace, Manager of IT Architecture, WelchвЂ™s At this point, all new programs are built using VMware software. We saw how well the applications performed, and we never looked back. Д¬ASE STUDY: WelchвЂ™s $ 700M Foods and Beverages Industry Company вЂњ We migrated a large number of servers into VMware virtual machines. SUN VirtualBox (xVM) CITRIX : XEN open source project. Д¬OMPETITION Microsoft HyperV as part of Windows 2008: no need for a separate VM anymore. Administrative errors on server can disturb all guests. Compromise of Server can disrupt all the guests. Licensing compliance for operating systems / applications must be complied to. Inter-guest interactions difficult to monitor. Easy backup ДISADVANTAGES Each guest must still be administered. ДЄDVANTAGES (2) Easy overview - administration Consolidation of physical underutilized servers.

Hardware seen as pool of resources available on-demand on an arbitrary basis. Complete VM can be deployed from templates, ready with configuration and data. A VM is a file: can be copied, replicated, transmitted (migrated), stored. ДЄDVANTAGES Encapsulation : strong isolation, independence between guest machines. Taking a snapshot Stored as a file : can be archived, copied, transmitted, analyzed. in my serverДЄnd all this happens on my WinXP desktopвЂ¦

VMWARE IN THE ENTERPRISE Consolidation of servers Isolation of applications Run legacy software Fast provisioning Elastic operation Fail-over Disaster recovery Reduced carbon footprint: Green computing A systems administrator can pause operations on a virtual machine guest, move or copy that guest to another physical computer, and there resume execution exactly at the point of suspension.

VIRTUALIZATION VMware virtual machines become highly portable between computers, because every host looks nearly identical to the guest.

The host provides pass-through drivers for guest USB, serial, and parallel devices. VMware software virtualizes the hardware for a video adapter, a network adapter, and hard disk adapters. VIRTUALIZATION VMware software provides a completely virtualized set of hardware to the guest operating system. VMWare Server Alternative architecture (addreses I/O concerns) : VMware Server Becomes the lowest software layer, just above hardware. First desktop product in the same year, server version in 2001. Investigation team founds VMWARE in 1999. Standard software could be run using middleware. VIRTUALIZATION VMWARE appears after successful reutilization of the virtualization concept for a (non-standard) multiprocessor prototype. Was deployed from the late 60вЂ™s to the mid 80вЂ™s, then abandoned in favor of the emerging mini and microcomputer architectures. Each user sees the machine as fully dedicated (timeslot multitasking). VIRTUALIZATION HISTORY Initially developed in the 60вЂ™s to leverage the usage of mainframe computers.
