Relative CPU Utilization
Low x86 Utilization…Becoming Even Lower (i.e. Multicore)
Increased complexity and inefficiency!

VMware Technology Overview
Old Model:Traditional x86 Architecture
• Single OS image per machine
• Software and hardware tightly coupled
• Multiple applications often conflict
• Underutilized resources introduce real cost into the infrastructure
6Copyright © 2005 VMware, Inc. All rights reserved.
VMware Technology Overview
• Separate OS and hardware – break hardware dependencies
• Manage OS and application as single unit by encapsulating them into VMs
• Strong fault and security isolation
• Standard, HW independent environments can be provisioned anywhere
• Flexibility to chose the right OS for the right application
New Model:VMware Technology
7Copyright © 2005 VMware, Inc. All rights reserved.
Encapsulation
• Server provisioning is similar to copying a file
• Server migration is now similar to data migration
• Data management techniques can be used for server management
• Server cloning/copying• Versioning• Server archival• Remote mirroring
Entire server – OS, apps, data, devices, and state – is now
simply a file.

Hardware Independent
A Virtual Machines always sees the same set of hardware, independent of the physical hardware.
• Can be moved to different hardware, without any change.
• From Laptop to desktop to high-end Server
•Easy for:
• Provisioning new machines
• Disaster Recovery
• Scaling
9Copyright © 2005 VMware, Inc. All rights reserved.
Enables You to:• Dynamically map computing resources
to the business
• Lower IT costs through increased efficiency, flexibility and responsiveness
• Provision new services and change the amount of resources dedicated to a software service
• Treat your data center as a single pool of processing, storage and networking power

VMotion technology lets you move live, running virtual machines from one host to another while maintaining
continuous service availability.
VMotion™ Technology Changes The Game
| Continuous Optimization | Fast Reconfiguration || Zero-Downtime Maintenance |
18Copyright © 2005 VMware, Inc. All rights reserved.
Key Leverage Points
Server Consolidation and Containment – Virtualize and consolidate existing workloads, increasing utilization rates and lowering operating costs
Test and Development – Rapidly provision and re-provision test and development servers; store libraries of pre-configured test machines
Enterprise Desktop – Provision standardized PC environments to remote and guest workers and ensure safe access to enterprise resources
Business Continuity – Improve recovery times by storing copies of production servers as hardware-independent virtual machines
20Copyright © 2005 VMware, Inc. All rights reserved.
Key Issues in Test and Development
• Cost• Limited hardware budgets
• High personnel costs
• Increasing diversity of target environments
• Efficiency• Ever-increasing hardware requirements
• Single application per server causes server sprawl
• Flexibility• Difficult handoffs between developers and testers
• Rapid deployment is elusive
• High rates of configuration change
21Copyright © 2005 VMware, Inc. All rights reserved.
Virtual Infrastructure Solution: Managing Complexity of Environments
• Archive virtual machines for use and re-use
• Can run VM’s on any hardware• Zero configuration time
Libraries and Test Banks of Virtual Machines
Simulate Complex Environments
• Recreate multi-tier environments on single system
• Reduce hardware requirements
22Copyright © 2005 VMware, Inc. All rights reserved.
Virtualization Benefits for Test and Development
• Lower Cost• Need less hardware because multiple environments run on each
machine
• Higher Efficiency• Quickly create virtual machines
• Share systems and configuration easily
• Greater Flexibility• Simpler to configure and reconfigure complex environments
24Copyright © 2005 VMware, Inc. All rights reserved.
Server consolidation• Implement as project with dedicated
hardware and budget
Server containment• Create virtual machines instead of
provisioning new hardware
• Reduces future hardware needs
