datacenter with the product suite that delivers you a choice
of best-in-class hypervisors along with a comprehensive set of management and
automation capabilities that increase IT efficiency, availability and
management.
Increase application availability and business continuity independent of hardware
and operating systems with the indsutry's most stable bare-metal
hypervisors. Choose
VMware ESX for integrated
management functions and service console or
VMware
ESXi for the smallest hypervisor footprint and OC-independence. Either way,
you eliminate planned downtime for server and storage maintenance with live
migration of virtual machines across physical servers and storage arrays. Once
you've built your virtual datacenter, create, automate, and test your entire
disaster recovery process with
VMware Site Recovery
Manager.
Streamline IT Infrastructure Management
Streamline the execution of IT management processes with live migration,
provisioning, capacity management, and automated patching. Perform management
and administration tasks from a single console with
VMware VirtualCenter. Even if you're a new
virtualization user our wizard-based setup lets you quickly begin reaping the
benefits of server consolidation. Then go a step beyond simple server
consolidation and eliminate cumbersome software installations and configurations
with
virtual appliances.
Minimize Your Total Cost of Infrastructure Ownership
Increase hardware utilization, reduce hardware requirements and increase energy efficiency with server consolidation ratios commonly
exceeding ten virtual machines per physical processor. Reduce required
datacenter square footage, rack space, power, cooling, cabling, storage and
network components by reducing the sheer number of physical machines. Increase
your consolidation ratio even more by leveraging VMware's unique memory
management capabilities and load-balancing features. Reduce your power
consumption even more by automatically turning on and off servers as needed to
meet your service level agreements with VMware Distributed Power
Management.
