Customers want SDDCs to be Clouds…


…But This Hasn’t Been an Easy Thing to Do!

Existing methodologies produce datacenters like

snowflakes…beautiful, but…unique, unrepeatable, and fragile.

Approaches to Implement the Software-Defined Data Center

CustomDo It Yourself

• Design a custom architecture with in-house knowledge

• Manually deploy and maintain multiple individual software components

Build Your Own with VMware Validated Designs

• VMware Validated Designs provide standardized architecture designs with extensively tested interoperability of the software components

• Manually deploy individual software components following the VVD guidelines and best practices to deploy and operate the SDDC

Automated with VMware Cloud Foundation

• VMware Cloud Foundation is an integrated SDDC platform with built-in automation for bring-up, configuration and patching/upgrading of the stack

• Automatically implement an SDDC with a validated architecture that reflects with VMware best practices by deploying VMware Cloud Foundation

Design Decisions

15

290+ in the current VMware Validated Design for SDDC

Reduces risk by providing a baseline of standardization.

Ensures the design meets the design objectives.

Reinforces standardization with

justification and implications.

Easy to follow checklist form.

Use two separate NSX instances per region. One instance is tied to the Management vCenter Server, and the other instance is tied to the Compute vCenterServer.

Design Decision

Design Decisions

16

290+ in the current VMware Validated Design for SDDC

SDDC-VI-SDN-001

Decision ID

SDN capabilities offered by NSX, such as load balancing and firewalls, are crucial for the compute/edge layer to support the cloud management platform operations, and also for the management applications in the management stack that need these capabilities.

Design Justification

You must install and perform initial configuration of the four NSX instances separately.

Design Implications

Dual-Region Deployment ReadyVMware Validated Design for SDDC

Characteristics & Restrictions Regional Distance is Rather Large A Region May Be Treated as an SDDC Multiple Regions are Not Treated as a Single SDDC

Workload Placement Closer to Customer Northern California and Southern California US East Coast and US West Coast US Region and EU Region

Common Uses Disaster Recovery: One region can be the primary site and

another region can be the recovery site. Data Privacy: Address laws & restrictions in some countries by

keeping tenant data within a region in the same country.
