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

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

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.
