Cross-vCenter vMotion (XVM)

24



bution

Cross-vCenter vMotion: Overview

• vCenter provides native capabilities to migrate VMs across vCenters (supported by vSphere 6.0 and above)

• Existing solutions:

– CLI based solutions (PowerCLI)

– UI based operations in vCenter through link mode: requires shared SSO

The Tool

– An easy-to-use solution built upon low-level API primitives that provides

• a simple UI for higher level management

• validation checks for migration operations

• parallel/batch migration with desired network mappings

• Supports vSphere 6.0 and above

• Raw API-driven low-level primitives

• Uses cross-VC NSX, no WAN support

• Native stack, no separate license required

• Supports vSphere 5.5 and above

• Management with vCenter plugin based UI

• Offers WAN optimization and L2 stretch

• External components, separate licensing cost

Cloud-Native Workload Frameworks

• PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service)

– Pivotal Cloud Foundry (PCF)

• CaaS (Container-as-a-Service)

– Kubernetes on vSphere

– vSphere Integrated Containers

• FaaS (Function-as-a-Service)

Pivotal Cloud Foundry (PCF)



bution

PCF on VCF

• Pivotal Cloud Foundry (PCF) is a cloud-native platform for deploying and operating modern applications.

• VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) is the unified SDDC platform to deliver enterprise-ready cloud infrastructure for the private and public cloud.

• Bring Cloud Native to VCF using PCF

Functions-as-a-Service



bution

Functions-as-a-Service

• Functions-as-a-service (FaaS), a.k.a. serverless computing

• Allows execution of “functions” containing application logic, managing the dynamic provisioning of resources required in the background

• Key advantages:

– Allows developers to focus on writing core product features not worrying about operations

– Cost savings due to paying for only the actual resources used instead of idle capacity

• FaaS on VCF

– Apache OpenWhisk: : Runtime for IBM Bluemix OpenWhisk

– Azure Functions: Engine that powers Azure functions

SDDC with Cloud Foundation Works Great but…

51

I already haveComponents Installed,Do not want toStart from Scratch



bution

Flexible Deployer

• A-La-Carte:

– Choose what you deploy when

– Skip what you do not need

• Brownfield:

– Add the missing components to an existing SDDC

• Dynamic Recipes:

– Deploy similar SDDC specs to different infrastructures and clouds

– Partner modules and agents integration

– Custom workload domains

52



bution

Flexible Deployer

Provides you the ability to pick and choose the components of your SDDC that you want deployed, for example:

• vSphere + vSAN• vSphere + NSX• vSphere + NSX+ vSAN• vSphere + vSAN + vRealize Suite• vSphere + NSX + vRealize Suite• vSphere + vSAN + NSX + vRealize Suite

Synergy + Cloud Foundation Key Value Proposition

Feature

• Synergy creates pools of resources – Compute, Network(Virtual Connect) and Storage in one platform

• Synergy integrates Oneview management into the composer and scales with additional frames

• Synergy reduces the number of firmware trains to one (instead of Compute, Network and Storage trains).

• VCF includes VCF Installation Appliance (VIA) to significantly ease installation of VM, networking and hyper-converged storage.

• VCF includes a SDDC manager to provision new services and maintain the codes base of the VMware components.

• VCF leverages your existing licenses.

Benefit

• Synergy eliminates the need for Top Of Rack Switches(TOR). Save significant cost.

• Synergy management is resourced appropriately for the size of the deployment.

• Synergy reduces the complexity of upgrades.

• VCF is installed quickly and correctly resulting in better time to production and less errors(automated).

• VCF SDDC manager eliminates looking up compatibility of upgrades and automates the installation. Saves time and increases accuracy.

• VCF allows migration of licenses to reduce costs.
