Only VMware

is the worlds most trusted virtualization platform

virtualizes the entire fabric of the datacenter,delivering ultimate flexibility

paves the path to cloud computing, with a commonplatform from desktop through the datacenter out topublic clouds

brings the broadest set of ecosystem partners,extending the value of existing investments

VMware vSphere 4

Overview


22/73

22

Virtualization Overview

Virtualization

Hypervisor abstracts traditional physical machine resources and runs

workloads as virtual machines (VMs) Each VM runs guest OS and applications


23/73

23

Virtualization Overview

Hypervisor

Partitions computing resources of a server

for multiple VMs Hypervisors alone lack coordination for

higher availability and efficiency

VMware vSphere

VMware vSphere goes beyond basic hostpartitioning by aggregating infrastructureresources into a giant virtual computer

Serves as a dynamic OS for a privateinternal cloud in your datacenter
