Hinweis der Redaktion
VMware is uniquely qualified to help in your digital transformation.
We’ve been a pioneer and leading innovator in “software-defined” for over fifteen years.
[click to build]
We started by virtualizing servers. Then we virtualized storage and networking. Next we extended those concepts to create our integrated data center architecture.
Today, we’re applying the benefits of the Software Defined Data Center to help companies make the shift to digital.
The intelligent dashboard in vSOM and vROps is the key to everything. It provides real time information on:
Health = Immediate problems
Risk = Future problems
Efficiency = Opportunities to Optimize
When the customer sees the product dashboard results from their environment, the data is very compelling. We give you an easy way to present that data to your customer.
vSphere with Operations Management has a great tool that allows you to plan for the future with Trend analysis. You can perform what-if analysis based on taking a certain action and see how that action impacts capacity. Here you see trends charts that can look into the future and help you determine how much time you have remaining before you run out of capacity. Here you see a view of the tool with your current VM count capacity and number of VMs that you have deployed.
<CLICK>
You also see based on your usage at what point in the future you will run out of capacity.
<CLICK>
Now let’s say that you need to add 10 new VMs. Notice that the point that your current capacity will run out shifts to account for this.
This type of trend analysis ensures that you can you plan for the future and always have the capacity you need when you need it. When you are able to address problems before they arise, you keep the your business critical applications available and your business running closing the gap between business expectations and the ability of IT to deliver.

Added in 6.1 – Replacing Hyperic, a standalone solution, as the OS and App monitoring capability in Intelligent Operations.
VMware offers a comprehensive operations management solution for the cloud era.
vRealize Operations Management Suite is a highly automated and integrated analytics platform and operations console that provides visibility into the health of your infrastructure and applications across hybrid clouds and heterogeneous environments.
There are three key areas of focus for VMware’s approach to simplify and automate Operations Management.
The first is Intelligent Operations, using patented analytics to provide better visibility into datacenter operations.
vRealize Operations analyzes millions of metrics from vSphere and existing monitoring tools to learn the behavior of your infrastructure.
It then sets dynamic thresholds that trigger smart alerts so you can proactively address building performance problems.
The second area is Policy-based Automation, leveraging policies and thresholds to trigger orchestration workflows across a white variety of tasks, rather than manual intervention to kick off a script.
These automated tasks include incident and problem remediation, policy enforcement for continuous compliance, and capacity analysis and planning to improve resource utilization.
The third area is Unified Management, providing operations team with a unified view of what's happening in their highly virtualized and cloud environments.
vRealize Operations delivers this unified view in three ways: first, through converged infrastructure management of network, storage and compute; second, through integration of the key disciplines of performance, capacity and configuration management; and third, through a consistent management approach across virtual, physical and private/public cloud domains.
As shown here, customers are reaping the benefits of this approach.
On the fly dashboard creation based on search criteria. Create custom dashboards that align with your needs and saved for re-use .
Operations teams can greatly benefit from unlocking the largely untapped value hidden in logs to improve service levels.
The ability to quickly search for patterns and details in logs is critical for ops teams get to the root cause quickly.
Cost estimates cover the full scope of infrastructure related costs including the cost of server, storage and network infrastructure. Benchmarks also address the cost of facilities that host the infrastructure, labor that manages the infrastructure, and the cost of software maintenance for the operating systems running within the infrastructure.
You can easily inspect the cost drivers we use. We are explicit around how the costs of each category of infrastructure expense is calculated so you can see both the logic and the cost drivers being used to determine the cost of your infrastructure.
All the cost driver benchmarks we supply can be overridden with user defined metrics. For instance if the hourly rate you pay for labor is significantly different than what we have within our benchmarks you can update the labor rate and that update will cascade throughout any calculations that rely on the labor rate.
You’ll want to decide carefully when and where to override the benchmarks we provide. You want to focus your time and energy providing refined cost drivers where they will make a material difference. If you do update a benchmark we provide with a user defined cost driver we still keep track of the original benchmark as a reference point so you can see how much better or worse you are doing compared to VMware supplied benchmarks.
The service costs can be broken down into the various cost drivers, and detailed granularity can show the cost of a VM or view the cost by demand (i.e. consumer group).
Showback is available by LOB/Customer of the resources
Not only do we provide you the basis for understanding the cost of your infrastructure but we give you the ability to understand how your costs compare to those of public cloud providers.
VMware provides you with the ability to configure a single VM or a group of VMs to a specific standard – say a specific amount of memory, CPU, etc. Then you can compare that specification to that same configuration available through a public cloud provider such as Amazon, Azure or vCloud Air. This gives you the ability to understand whether your costs are competitive with that of Public Cloud alternatives.

Let us break down the challenge of slow service delivery time by exploring first the challenges for infrastructure service delivery.
Creating infrastructure services is typically a time consuming manual task. Based on customers surveys we conducted, we know that the actual work effort is typically around 4 - 6 hours.
However, those 4 - 6 hours are spread over days or weeks since this effort involves multiple teams, which often operate in siloes. As a result there are wait times in slow workflows.
Moreover, manual tasks lead to inconsistencies and errors in configurations. There is the need for time consuming rework to ensure that systems consistently, i.e. systems need to behave in the same manner.
Even after the infrastructure has been provisioned, there are a whole lot of Day 2 Operations that the teams have to continually perform to tweak the environment and keep it performing at the expected levels. These Day 2 Operations can also be automatically triggered by events received from implementing Intelligent Operations e.g. Capacity monitoring alerts
While IT teams have “semi” automated the delivery of infrastructure to development and production groups using scripts and configuration management tools, most have not yet achieved either speed of delivery nor high levels of operating efficiency. VMware’s CMP helps IT teams addressing the use case of IT Automating IT by delivering the capabilities that allow IT teams to fully automate their approach to the delivery and ongoing management of shared service infrastructure.
Serving the needs of Developers starts with providing self service to them.
vRealize Automation provides a Unified Service Catalog that gives consumers an App Store ordering experience to make requests from a personalized collection of application and infrastructure services.
Self Service can be used to provision only infrastructure or infrastructure and applications. vRealize supports the need to do both.
In addition, administrators can use the Advanced Service Designer to automate, and make available custom IT services through the new IT service catalog. Service Entitlements and optional approvals allow IT administrators to deliver personalized IT service catalog which can be optimized to the specific needs of individual users or groups of users. Each Tenant can have their own specific branding, and user authentication via existing directory services (LDAP).
Once a consumer requests a service, a showback of the service cost is displayed. More service costing capabilities are also available under the “Business Management” tab.
For those developers that want an API access experience similar to what they could experience on the public cloud, VMware offers VMware Integrated Openstack. This solution provides an Openstack distribution that takes full advantage of the VMware SDDC stack – including vSphere, NSX and VSAN.
Blueprints allow you to embed policy and automation directly into a model of the environment that will be provisioned when the blueprint is triggered.
Within the blueprint you can embed a broad range of policies such as:
What clouds can be targets for the blueprint, on-prem vSphere, Amazon, Azure, etc
What business groups or teams are allowed to request the service
Who needs to approve
You can specify specific attributes that will be part of the service or service component such as:
How many vCPUs will be allotted to a resource, how much memory, how much storage etc,
In addition to the OOTB actions, customized workflows can be triggered based on activity reports. Any inactive resources can be reclaimed after providing one or more reminders to the resource owners.
