What is a Private Cloud?–Abstraction that enables opaque usage model for service and VM management

Deployment and Upgrade

Highly Available VMM ServerAddresses key customer ask VMM server is now cluster aware so there’s no single point of failure

UpgradeFrom VMM 2008 R2 SP1 to VMM 2012 RCFrom VMM 2012 RC to VMM 2012 RTM

Custom PropertiesName/Value pairsNo need to use Custom1…Custom10

PowershellFully powershell scriptablePowershell 2.0 – standard verbs, noun naming conventionBackward compatible with VMM 2008 R2 scripting interface

Fabric Management

Physical ServerManage multiple hypervisors – Hyper-V, VMware, XenServer hardware management – IPMI, DCMI, SMASH, Custom via ProviderHost provisioning – from baremetal to Hyper-V to Cluster provisioning

NetworkDefine Logical Networks using VLANs and Subnets per datacenter locationAddress management for Static IPs, Load Balancer VIPs and MAC addressesAutomated provisioning of Load Balancers via Provider

StorageStorage Management using SMI-SDiscover storage arrays and poolsClassify storage based on throughput and capabilitiesDiscover or configure LUNs and assign to hosts and clustersRapid provisioning of VMs using snap cloning of LUNs

Fabric Management

Update Management of Fabric ServersUpdate operation control (On-demand scan and on-demand remediation)Updating a Hyper-V cluster is fully automatedIntegrated with Windows Server Update Server

Dynamic Optimization (DO)Cluster level workload balancing scheme to optimize for VM performanceLeverages live migration to move workloads

Power Optimization (PO)Leverages live migration to pack more VMs per hostPowers down servers to optimize for power utilization

Enhanced PlacementOver 100 placement checks/validationSupport for custom placement rules

Private Cloud Usage Scenario

Configure the fabric (servers, network, storage)

Create a cloud from the fabric

Delegate the cloud to a Self Service User

Self Service User creates VMs and Services in the cloud

Configure the Fabric

d e m o
