Server Virtualization with Vmware Vsphere 4 Server Virtualization with VMware vSphere 4 Masaaki Nishikiori The server virtualization market is expanding rapidly as customers seek savings in both space and energy through efficient use of hardware resources, an increase in business agility through prompt addition and removal of servers, and a reduction in the total cost of ownership (TCO) by separating hardware and business-system life cycles. The virtualization solution offered by Fujitsu and used by a large number of its customers in Japan combines Fujitsu’s high-reliability servers and middleware products, which optimize data center operations, with vSphere 4, VMware’s virtual infrastructure. This paper describes the transition of VMware’s server virtualization products over the years, the functions and features of the vSphere 4 virtual infrastructure, its relation to cloud environments, and examples of using Fujitsu middleware with vSphere 4. 1. Introduction of data center operations. These solutions are The server virtualization market is deployed by more than 1200 customers (as of expanding rapidly as customers seek space and November 2010). Fujitsu has abundant customer energy saving through more efficient usage of experience with these virtualization solutions hardware resources, greater business agility and has released three case studies regarding through prompt addition and removal of servers, cloud systems, which are currently attracting and lower total cost of ownership (TCO) through considerable attention. separation of hardware and business-system life • In-house Case Study 1: “Deployment of cycles.

Founded 1998 VMware offers free versions of some of its software (e.g. VMware Server, ESXi) to broaden adoption Ownership Public (VMW) VMware was first to create bare-metal x86 virtualization solutions, and has built up its 2007 Revenue $1.33B leading market share while facing limited competition. Given that its solution was built prior to the availability of virtualization-aware processors Employees 6,000+ and operating systems, VMware’s solution features a first-generation architecture that Office Headquarters Palo Alto, CA USA employs a “binary translation” approach to virtualization that tricks an OS into thinking it is running on physical hardware. Regional Offices Worldwide Recent innovations such as hardware virtualization assist (Intel VT and AMD-V) and Market Share 86% (2007) paravirtualization have cut into VMware’s technology lead. Paravirtualization enables full cooperation between the OS and the hypervisor to deliver the best performance. Hardware-virtualization assist refers to virtualization-aware processors which eliminate Related Products VMware Server the need to perform binary instruction translation in the hypervisor’s software stack.
