– A hypervisor is software that allows physical devices to share resources amongst one or more virtual machines running as guests on top of the physical hardware.

What is Virtualization ?

Traditional Architecture Virtual Architecture

© IBM Corporation

Partitioning– Run multiple operating systems on one physical machine– Divide system resources between virtual machines

Virtual Architecture


© IBM Corporation

Isolation– Fault and security isolation at the hardware level– Advanced resource controls preserve performance


© IBM Corporation

Encapsulation– Entire state of the virtual machine can be saved to files– Move and copy virtual machines as easily as moving and copying files

Why virtual machines ?Hardware Independence– Provision or migrate any virtual machine to any similar or different physical server

How identify opportunities?C-LEVEL

The Business wants delivery more fast and more fast every day, but the workloads are not ready for a

public cloud…

I have to create an framework for public

cloud adoption, but I'm not comfortable to

migrate my legacy…

Gartner said 65% of companies will have

hybrid cloud until 2016

Hybrid Cloud is out of our roadmap… is too

complex !

How identify opportunities?Architect Level

We have to move some legacy workloads to

cloud…

If can we create a private cloud into a

public cloud….

We will have a transition timeframe to adapt my workloads to

public cloud…

My environment is entire VMware and I’m

suffering pressure to moving to public cloud…

We just finished our SDDC, and Business asking me about an

DEVOPS tools…

How identify opportunities?Analyst Level I want to run Windows

Client in a public cloud….

…don’t touch in my VMWARE! I designed

and deployed this entire on premise

environment!

WHAT? I cannot check config my hypervisor in

a public cloud?

ELASTIC WHAT?

I want to check my hardware…

I want optimize my ballon memory…

I NEED access servers by console…

WHY they don’t just say "load balancers"

Just to be clear… do you sell books and

IaaS?
