• Configured at Cluster-level. Connected to hosts for
better performance
• Stores all disk volumes for VMs in a cluster
• Cluster can have one or more primary storages
• Local disk, iSCSI, FC, FCOE or NFS
Primary Storage
• Configured at Zone or Region
• Stores all Templates, ISOs and Volume Snapshots
• Zone or Region can have one or more secondary
storages
• NFS, S3 API compatible block storage
• NFS can be configured to be delivered via a dedicated
L3 storage network

Governance for control of access and consumption

Basic (Layer 3) vs. Advanced (Layer 2) Networking
Segmentation based on feature set and ease-of-deployment
Basic: true AWS-style L3 isolation
• Tenants do not get contiguous IP addresses
• Network segmentation based on Security Groups
• Tremendous scale (tens of thousands)
• XenServer and KVM only
Advanced: offers full L2 subnets
• VLANs subject to default implementation (4K limit)
• More features (source NAT, PF, VPN)
Layer-2 Layer-3
Isolation VLAN Security Groups
(XenServer only)
Performance Better Better
Network setup Moderate Easy
Support broadcast Yes No
Scalability Good Best
Interoperability with
external resources
Good Poor
