Typical Challenges

Have dynamic changes to virtual entities resulted

in configuration drift?

When will I run out of capacity?

Do I have enough capacity to support service levels?

Can I reclaim unused or over-provisioned capacity?

Can I confidently virtualize my business critical apps?

How do I track entities, relationships and actions?

Are VMs configured in compliance with operational and security best practices?

Have unauthorizedchanges been made?

How do I scale my virtual environment?

“In our major data centers, we’ve now decommissioned more machines than we have running. That represents a huge cost savings in capacity. In our major data centers, if we had not had a good way of governing when a virtual machine was no longer being used, we probably would now have more than 1,000 extra virtual machines running.”

Typical Dev/Test Infrastructure is an IT Headache

Server sprawl – under desks, in closets

Aging, cast-off hardware

Dirty systems – inability to maintain “clean state”

Users and IT bogged down in provisioning requests

Release management is resource intensive and error-prone

Requirements for Disaster Recovery Solutions

Minimize Downtime

93% of companies that lost their data center for ten days or more due to a disaster filed for bankruptcy within one year of the disaster.

--National Archives and Records Administration

Control Cost

Minimize Risk

73% of executives expressed concern with the costs associated with maintaining a secondary data centre

--Beacon Technology Partners

92% of users surveyed acknowledged that their companies would face serious consequences if they had to implement their disaster recovery plans.

--Dynamic Markets Ltd.

Effective disaster recovery is a business imperative,

but is very difficult to achieve

3333

Challenges of Traditional Disaster Recovery

Complex recovery processes and infrastructure

Complex recovery processes and infrastructure

vCenter Chargeback Overview

Benefits

Improve Resource Utilization: By associating costs to VM’s many of the “free” VM’s will go away, freeing up resources for higher priorities

Optimization of Budgets: Business units can understand how much they are paying for resources and how much goes to unused, allowing them to optimize resource consumption & costs

Account, monitor, and report on costs associated with virtual resources
