VMware vSphere 5 Standard Production Support/Subscription, 1 Year

Reduced power consumption by converting physical servers to VM servers. Single point of management for several servers instead of having to use Remote Desktop Connection and other tools to do what I now do within VMware vSphere 5 Standard Production Support/Subscription, 1 Year. VMWare is the best virtualization software, easy to use, feature packed, reliable and rock solid. The free Hypervisor is fully functional, while the paid versions add fault tolerance, clustering, high availability and live migration.

There is a lot that I like about VMware vSphere 5 Standard Production Support/Subscription, 1 Year. It is a very capable server virtualization platform. In the past, IT Departments struggled with server sprawl. Every server-based application was supposed to run on its own server. With vSphere, you can run multiple virtual servers on a single, physical computer, even if the virtual servers are running different operating systems such as Microsoft Windows and Linux. vSphere lets you take snapshots of the virtual servers when needed to allow the option for rolling back to a previous state (helpful for things like testing out patches without having to make the change permanent). vSphere also allows you to create templates of of virtual servers that can be used to create new virtual servers pre-configured and patched. You can also clone active virtual servers which is useful when you are looking to upgrade an application and need to test it while still maintaining the active production environment. With add-ons such as vCenter, you can further extend the capabilities to include automated fail-over of virtual servers in the event of a host failure. You can also migrate live, active virtual servers from one host computer to another without impacting users. I could go on and on about the things I like about vSphere. It sits at the heart of my data center and I have designed our data center around it.

See and manage the different aspects of the server environment like the performance, resources, data stores, storage, and get insights on the VM before logging into the server. The VMRC or VM Remote Console is a tool that lets you connect and log into the VM from VMware vSphere 5 Standard Production Support/Subscription, 1 Year without the need to use Remote Desktop Connection or any other remote tool to log into the server.
