VirtualCenter
Manage, Automate
and Optimize your IT Infrastructure
Achieve the highest levels
of efficiency, automation, simplicity and security in managing
a virtualized IT environment of any size with VMware VirtualCenter.
VirtualCenter lets you rapidly provision virtual machines
and monitor performance of physical servers and virtual
machines. VirtualCenter intelligently optimizes resources,
ensures high availability to all applications in virtual
machines and makes your IT environment more responsive with
virtualization-based distributed services such as VMware
DRS, VMware HA and VMware VMotion.
Put Efficiency and
Control at Your Fingertips
Provision, monitor and manage
your virtualized IT environment through a single interface:
- Simplify the provisioning
of new virtual machines with wizard-driven processes and
templates that allow the deployment of new virtual machines-instantly.
- Operational automation through
task scheduling and alerting improves responsiveness to
business needs and prioritizes actions needing the most
urgent attention.
- Automate routine management
tasks with task scheduling and alerting.
- Monitor performance and
utilization of physical servers and the virtual machines
they are running with detailed reporting of CPU, memory
and I/O performance.
- Limit access to authorized
personnel using tiers of customizable roles, fine-grained
permissions and integration with Microsoft Active Directory.
- Integrate with 3rd party
systems management products through the VMware Infrastructure
SDK.
Ensure Higher Service
Levels for Applications
VirtualCenter is part of a
feature-rich suite that includes
a unique set of virtualization-based capabilities that make
your virtual environment more responsive, available and
serviceable than a physical IT environment.
- Optimize resources with
VMware DRS, which dynamically
balances capacity and ensures service levels.
- Migrate live virtual machines
across entirely separate physical servers with VMware
VMotion and conduct non-disruptive maintenance
of IT environments.
- Enable cost-effective application
availability independent of hardware and operating systems
using VMware HA.
The VMware VirtualCenter agent
is included in all VMware Infrastructure editions. The VirtualCenter
Management Server is licensed separately. |
