Virtualizing Tier 1 Applications: Leverage the vSphere Private Cloud as a Better Platform for Apps

Virtualizing Tier 1 Applications: Leverage the vSphere Private Cloud as a Better Platform for Apps
Do you have concerns about virtualizing your business-critical applications such as Exchange, databases, or SAP? Are your application teams giving you a hard time about the impact of virtualization on performance and ISV support? You’re not alone!
Many VMware customers have faced and overcome similar objections. Today, the virtualization of Tier 1 apps has gone mainstream and VMware users have virtualized about 40% of their Microsoft Exchange and SQL instances. In this session, we will focus on the most common Tier 1 applications including Microsoft Exchange, SQL, Oracle, and SAP. We’ll start by discussing the most typical objections focusing on performance and ISV support. We’ll then look at how vSphere is evolving into a better platform for these applications, through a series of use cases: – Consolidate your databasees to reduce software license costs by 50% or more – Protect all apps with simple, cost-efficient availability – Ensure end-user service levels with CapacityIQ, AppSpeed, Hot-Add and DRS – Accelerate the application lifecycle with self-service, fast provisioning from labs to production
