Transcript of VMware goes container crazy with vSphere integrated containers
VMware goes Container
You name the container,
VMware is bringing it to
VMware vSphere
Integrated Containers
Crazy with vSphere
www.vmwaretraining-chennai.in
• VMware is announcing foundational infrastructure that will
enable customers to deploy cloud-native applications in
production with confidence.
• Customers will be able to jump start their container
initiatives on top of their existing VMware vSphere
environments or consume new infrastructure
designed specifically for cloud-native applications
• Container craziness has reached VMware. VMware is
partnering with Pivotal to create Photon Platform
• API-centric platform designed for containers running
on Pivotal Cloud Foundry and integrating Docker
with the VMware ESX hypervisor in VMware vSphere
Integrated Containers (VIC)
• VMware announced VIC at VMworld as a technology preview.
It's built on Project Bonneville, which first saw the light of day in
June. This is still early-stage technology.
• The virtualization revolution brought flexible, abstract,
dynamic resource boundaries to compute carving up
commodity hardware into simple fungible assets. Now
we're doing the same for containers with the 'Virtual
Container Host' concept.
• VIC was designed to work with Docker, VMware claims that that it
will easily integrate with other container ecosystem solutions
• VMware claims that with vSphere as its foundation,
the new offering will help IT operations team meet
the following enterprise requirements for
containers:
• That's in no small part because of the recent container
standardization efforts of the Open Container Project and
Cloud Native Computing Foundation.
• Security and Isolation - Assuring the integrity and
authenticity of containers and their underlying infrastructure, VIC
isolates and starts up each container in a virtual machine with
minimal overhead using the Instant Clone feature of VMware
vSphere 6.
• Storage and Data Persistence - While
many container services are stateless today,
customers want to enable state full services to
support cloud-native databases.
• Networking - VMware NSX supports production container
deployments today. With VMware NSX, IT can apply fine-grained
network micro-segmentation and policy-based security to cloud-native
applications. Additionally, NSX provides IT with greater visibility into the
behavior of containers.
• Service-Level Agreements (SLAs) - IT teams will be able
to assure service-level agreements for container workloads with
VMware vSphere Distributed Resource Scheduler as well as reduce
planned and unplanned downtime with VMware vSphere High
Availability and VMware vSphere vMotion.
• Management - Administrators will be able to use
VMware vCenter Server to view and manage their
containers without the need for new tools or additional
training
• Customers can achieve consistent
management and configuration compliance
across private and public clouds using the
VMware vRealize Suite.
