Product Description

Product Description
Based on actual experiences with implementing and managing large scale projects and environments, this book emphasizes the design, implementation, and management of a VMware ESX server, offering technical and consultative points of view. Providing practical guides and examples, the chapter organization focuses first on introducing a concept and background for that concept, before providing a real-world scenario on which the planning and implementation example is based. Finally, for more technical readers, the book includes advanced topics and additional resources. It covers the two most popular current releases of 2.5 and 3.0, as well the upcoming 3.1 release.

From the Back Cover

Flexible and efficient, VMware ESX has emerged as the tool of choice for enterprise data centers looking to make the most of the latest virtualization methods. However, to date there is no single manual that provides users with a systematic way to understand and take full advantage of all the features and options available to them.

VMware ESX Essentials in the Virtual Data Center answers that need. Written by pioneers and established experts in the field of virtualization with years of hands-on experience, these pages detail the product and then outline innovative ways to use virtualization within the organization. With novel solutions for every level of the IT chain, this text is a complete guide to the design, operation, and management of the ESX product.

Featuring technical information, best practices, and the technology breakdowns needed to answer real business challenges, this succinct volume –

  • Instructs on how to install ESX, either manually or using an automated method, detailing the various key performance optimizations that can be employed to make installation more efficient
  • Imparts methods to further automate and enhance the ESX environment, and make it more extensible with APIs, SDKs, programming extensions, and VirtualCenter plug-ins
  • Gives users a full understanding of the latest ESX features
  • Explains the architecture and background of ESX through the use of diagrams

Covering VMware VI3, the most widely distributed server virtualization product on the market, from 3.0 to 3.5, as well as the most recently announced embedded version of ESXi, this book will give IT organizations the ability to save costs on hardware and increase the efficiency of server deployments, provisioning, and management. It will allow them to utilize the full benefits of virtualization, giving them the flexibility to innovate solutions and the freedom that comes with not being locked into a single vendor’s hardware solution.
