What is Virtualization
Technology for partitioning one physical server into multiple virtual servers.
Each Virtual Machine– Runs it’s own Operating system– Runs it’s own applications– Isolated from other VM’s.
Virtualization is not:– Simulation– Emulation

What is a Virtual Machine (VM)? A software platform that,
like a physical computer, runs an operating system and applications
A discrete set of files, the main files being– Configuration file– Virtual disk file– Log file– Etc.

How Does Virtualization Work?Allows multiple
operating system instances to run concurrently within virtual machines on a single computer
A virtualization layer is installed, which uses either a hosted or hypervisor architecture

Physical to Virtual Machine Comparison
Difficult to move or copy
Bound to a specific set of hardware
Often has short life cycle
Requires personal contact to upgrade hardware
Difficult to manage remotely
Virtual Machine
• Easy to manage• Isolated from other
virtual machines running on the same physical hardware
• Insulated from physical-hardware changes
Physical Machine
• Easy to move and copy• Encapsulated into files
• Independent of physical hardware

Advantages to Virtualization
Reduce physical number of servers
Reduce Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
Improved Availability and Business Continuity
Increase IT efficiency
Increase efficiency for development and test environments.
Expanded virtual machine capacity and management scalability
Simplified installation, management and licensing
Meets demanding enterprise datacenter requirements and standards
Expands footprint of virtualization from branch offices to biggest data centers

How vSphere Fits into Cloud Computing
– Installing vSphere 5 creates a virtual infrastructure
– Your VMs run in this virtual infrastructure
– VMware vCloud® Director™ enables you to create a cloud
– Third party companies host private clouds
– VMware clouds empower you to run your virtual machines in a private or public cloud to fit your business needs

IBM Education
VMware’s View centrally hosts and delivers complete, isolated desktop
environments that are easily managed, always on and securely accessible
from anywhere. View helps IT overcome both manageability and accessibility
challenges while significantly reducing overall costs of enterprise desktop
management.
The Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI)
VMware View
Consolidates and centralizes complete desktop environments within the data center
Virtualizes, optimizes, and manages server resources to host and deliver managed desktops that are always-on and connected
Enables remote, secure and compliant user access to complete desktop resources

Benefits of a Virtual Desktop Strategy
• Remote access to complete desktop environments
• Access virtual desktops via remote client connection from anywhere, and from any device
• Instantly access virtual desktops at anytime - since they are always on and available
• Enable remote connection to a desktop via a browser
• Standardize desktops on common virtual machine images
• Virtual machines are always connected and powered on enabling easy & timely software updates
• Complete hardware independence –Host any desktop OS/ app on any shared x86 h/w resources
• Improved resource management eliminates underutilized PC CPU cycles
Manageability Accessibility
• Easily provision entire desktops by simply creating or copying a new virtual machine
• Quickly recover desktops from disasters or crashes by deploying a new virtual desktop to a user
• Troubleshoot desktops through virtual machine snapshots and quickly resolve or reprovision new desktops
