Build a Dynamic Datacenter with VMware vSphere

VMware ESXi enables single-server partitioning and forms the foundation for a virtualized datacenter. With VMware vSphere, customers can build upon this base virtualization layer to obtain centralized management, continuous application availability, and maximum operational efficiency.  VMware vSphere is the most widely deployed enterprise virtualization suite that offers customers:

  • Centralized management of virtual machines and their physical hosts
  • Integrated back up and restore of virtual machines
  • Protection against physical server failures for high availability
  • Live migration of virtual machines between physical servers with no downtime
  • Dynamic load balancing of virtual machines to guarantee service levels

Customers can obtain VMware ESXi free of charge and later seamlessly upgrade to VMware vSphere for Small Business or VMware vSphere for Mid-Size & Enterprise Business. Alternatively, customers can purchase VMware vSphere and deploy ESXi as part of the suite.
