Lecture 3 Five Step Process

This document discusses several types of virtualization including memory, device/I/O, network, server, client/desktop, and application virtualization. It also discusses virtualization products including Type I and Type II hypervisors as well as examples like VMware ESX, Citrix XenServer, Oracle VM VirtualBox, and KVM. The benefits of virtualization are listed as increasing CPU utilization, running multiple OSes on one physical server, live migration of VMs, snapshotting of VM states, and accessing enterprise software. A five step process for moving to virtualization is outlined including discovery, virtualization, hardware maximization, architecture, and management.

Memory virtualization: This associates allotment of

physical memory and dynamical allotment among all VMs.


Device and I/O virtualization:

These include handling the routing of I/O requests between the shared physical
hardware and virtual devices

Example: Virtual NICs


Network virtualization: When all the separate resources of a network are combined
and the condition that allows the network administrator to share them among all
network users.

Server virtualization:
• _________ model consists of the particular
types of services that you can access on a
cloud computing platform.
A) Service
B) Deployment
C) Application
D)None of the mentioned
Client or Desktop virtualization:
It is like a separation of PC desktop environment from a
physical machine through the client server model of computing

There are 2 types:


i) Remote (server-hosted) : OS is hosted on a server in the data center
ii) Local (Client-hosted): OS runs locally on the user’s PC hardware

Application Virtualization
It is the execution of running software from a remote server rather than
the user’s computer
Example: Dynamic link lib
Virtualization Products

Category of Virtualization products

i. Type I virtualization: directly runs on bare metal


hardware, there is no need of installing OS, Type I
hypervisor itself works like an OS
example: Vmware ESX and ESXi, Citrix Xen server

i. Type II virtualization: runs directly on OS or any


hosted OS
example: Oracle VM virtual box, KVM (kernel based
VM)
• . …… helps a user to have remote access to an
application from a server.
a) Application virtualization
b) Network virtualization
c) Desktop virtualization
d) Storage virtualization
VmWare server: Company of making virtualization products

Benefits:
i. Extra servers
ii. Increase the CPU utilization
iii. Runs Linux, solaris, win, and applications on a simple
physical server
iv. Transfers VMs from one physical server to another
v. Captures the full state of a VM
vi. Gives the choice to access enterprise class product
software
Virtualization
(In comes virtualization, The Five step
process)
Move to Virtualization..
• ▼ What is virtualization?
• ■ Why would we need it?
• ■ How can it improve my business?
• ■ What types of virtualization technologies exist?
• ■ Which terms should I be familiar with?
• ■ What is the cost/benefit ratio of virtualization?
• ■ What new challenges will it bring to the datacenter?
• ■ How should I structure my virtualization solution?
• ■ Which applications or services are good virtualization candidates?
• ■ Which server platforms or form factors are best suited to support
virtualization?
Move to Virtualization..
Green Technologies
• Greening the datacenter means more than
just reducing the number of physical servers
contained within it.
• It means moving forward with green policies
and practices.
• One of the best of these is the acquisition
practices in support of new machine
purchases
A FIVE-STEP PROCESS
The move to virtualization relies on five key steps:
1. Discovery The first step begins with datacenter inventories and the
identification of potential virtualization candidates.
2. Virtualization The second step focuses on gaining a complete
understanding of the value choices that virtualization can offer.
3. Hardware maximization The third step focuses on hardware recovery
and how you can make judicial investments when adding new hardware or
replacing older systems.
4. Architecture The fourth step looks to the architecture you must
prepare to properly introduce virtualization technologies into your datacenter
practices.
5. Management The last step focuses on the update of the management
tools you use to maintain complete virtualization scenarios in your new
dynamic datacenter.
