Virtualization, in computing, is the creation of a virtual(rather than actual) version of something, such as ahardware platform, operating system, a storage device ornetwork resources.

What is Virtualization?

Virtualization is a technologydeveloped IBM for their Mainframe.That allows you to transformhardware into software.

Virtualization allows you to run multipleoperating systems simultaneouslyon a single computer.

Each copy of an operating system isinstalled into a virtual machine .

Three Key Properties of Virtualization

Partitioning• Run multiple operating

systems on one physicalmachine

• Fully utilize server resources• Support high availability by

clustering virtual machines

Encapsulation• Encapsulate the entire state

of the virtual machine inhardware-independent files

• Save the virtual machine stateas a snapshot in time

• Re-use or transfer whole virtualmachines with a simple file copy

Isolation• Isolate faults and security at

the virtual-machine level• Dynamically control CPU,

memory, disk and networkresources per virtualmachine

• Guarantee service levels

Run several operating systemson a single machine.

Create shared pools of resources tooptimize your infrastructure.

What is Virtualization?

• VMware provides hardware virtualization that presents a completex86 platform to the virtual machine

• Allows multiple applications to run in isolation within virtual machineson the same physical machine

• Virtualization provides direct access to the hardware resources togive you much greater performance than software emulation

Hosted vs. Native Virtualization

NativeHosted

• Device support is inherited from host

operating system for maximum hardwarecompatibility• Virtualization installs like an application

rather than like an operating system• Can run alongside conventional

applications

• Maximum performance with lowest overhead usingcertified hardware

• Highly efficient direct I/O pass-through architecturefor network and disk• Highly secure micro-kernel virtualization layer —

only 100Ks of lines of code versus 10 – 25 millionlines of host operating system code

• Advanced features like VMotion available

Simplified License Management in vSphere 4

Simple license keys instead of flex- 1 license per edition- 1 key for many hosts

New centralized license key administration in vCenter- No separate license server to manage or monitor- Centralized host and license monitoring through vCenter enabling easy

complianceNew license portal provides more accurate view of entitlement

Improved Activation Process

• VI3 License Activation Is Failure-prone- Too many steps and ―context changes Customers have many opportunities to get confused or take ―wrong

turns - License files are the result of a long, multi-step portal transaction- Complexity illustrated: 40 pages in VI3 admin/install guide devoted to licensing

• A Dramatically Simpler Process In VI4- A short and easy activation process was the single most important design requirement- License keys are sent in email and can be copied directly into the product – no portal activation step required

- No separate license server means no additional installation, configuration or monitoring is required
