IT must respond to custom requests and LOBs face queues
Users
May I have a
LAMP stack,
please?
Approval processes and queues
Custom requests strain IT
Hardware acquisition
Infrastructure deployment
Manual planning and provisioning
Difficult capacity management

For IT, this is a similarly challenging situation
From managing a highly
customized, siloed datacenter
To a standardized and pooled
datacenter

9. 9
The hybrid cloud is the best model to capture these benefits
Cloud Service
Providers
Hybrid Cloud
Composition of 2 or more
interoperable clouds,
enabling data and
application portability
Public Cloud
Accessible over the
Internet for general
consumption
Private Cloud
Operated solely for an
organization, typically
within the firewall
Enterprises
Bridging

VMware vCloud Director
Builds on vSphere and scales up to
10,000 VMs and 25 vCenter Servers
Creates virtual datacenters, by pooling
resources into new units of consumption
Securely enables the cloud with
vShield, LDAP authentication, and RBAC
Provides self-service portals and
standardized infrastructure catalogs
Isolates users into organizations with
unique catalogs, policies, and LDAP
vCloud Director builds on vSphere to transform IT
vCloud API enables inter-cloud portability,
programmatic control, and integrations

Users given direct, on-demand access to infrastructure services
Three ways to connect
• Direct access through web-based
user portals
• Integrate into IT workflows and
request processes
• Programmatic access through
vCloud API
Delegated controls
• Basic VM operations, including
provisioning and deprovisioning
• Move vApp to new VDC
• Customize the guest OS
• Adjust resource guarantees
Yet, IT never loses control

12. 12
Users deploy standard services from central catalogs
Direct access to catalogs
through self-service portal
Catalogs contain templates,
vApps, and Media
Catalogs can be customized by
organization
• Users can be given permission to
create organization-wide catalogs
• Organizations can be given
permission to create datacenter-
wide catalogs

14. 13
Users have an isolated infrastructure sandbox
Organization Virtual Datacenters
are isolated resource pools
dedicated to an organization
Logical abstraction between
application and underlying
hardware
Access without risk of exceeding
capacity, bothering “neighbors,”
or creating security issues
Can be offered at a predefined
SLA with corresponding costs
