Vmware—通向云计算的最佳途径pcw.ppt

* Key Points: [Slide purp操作系统e: to relate the challenges on previous slide to important consequences of th操作系统e challenges] Result of these challenges is: Increasing c操作系统ts related to desktop infrastructure Decreasing manageability Increasing security risks Additional Notes: Increasing c操作系统ts: Only about 30% of TCO of PC’s is the c操作系统t of hardware; the remaining 70% is the c操作系统t of deployment, management, and support Backup, recovery, and remote access require additional spending and continuous updating A distributed desktop environment complicates management and tasks like backup, leading to these higher c操作系统ts Decreasing manageability: Continuous stream of patches and updates that need to be tested against all 操作系统 images in environment Complexity of migrating to new PC hardware because new PC hardware often requires new 操作系统 image or even new 操作系统 version Growing security risks: Cases involving theft of proprietary information were twice as common in 2005 as in previous year （Computer Security Institute survey） Average c操作系统t of a security breach was $204,000 per survey respondent （Computer Security Institute survey） * * * * Customers have been achieving pretty impressive results with VMware Infrastructure But consolidation is just the beginning of the journey. Virtualization is the new platform for computing because it is the new way to provide all the systems infrastructure services in a uniform, consistent and scalable way. * * This is an example of a customer that embarked on a large scale server consolidation project. They started with 1000 servers, and after consolidation, ended up with 80 virtualized servers. The hardware cost savings from doing that were close to $6000 per server removed from the datacenter. Once they removed so many servers from the datacenter, the environmental costs went down as well. For every application they started running in a VM, they saved close to $1700 in power and cooling and $400+ in real estate on 3 yr basis. And i
