For more information, VMWare vsphere 5 virtual data center building guide computer books VMware vsphere 5 virtual data center building guide from EMC's official VMware vsphere 5 virtual data center Building guide, written by two of the world's top Virtualization Technology Consultants officially from EMC, Chad sakac, senior vice president of EMC, is strongly recommended. The core technologies and working mechanisms of vsphere 5 are described in detail, it also systematically describes the complete process and various technical details of using vsphere 5 to build a more reliable, easy-to-manage, cost-saving, and environmentally friendly virtual data center. The VMware vsphere 5 virtual data center construction guide consists of eight chapters: Chapter 1st introduces the server virtualization technology and its usage elements, virtualization environment specifications, virtualization benefits and three stages, as well as the entire virtualization ecosystem; Chapter 2nd describes the evolution of vsphere 5 and various architecture components; Chapter 3rd describes in detail the storage format, technology, components and Mechanisms of vsphere 5; chapter 4th describes the necessary server and network components and technical details for any virtualization solution; Chapter 5th describes the high availability and its recovery plan; chapter 6th introduces the backup methods and technical principles in vsphere 5, and Chapter 7th describes the implementation details of using vsphere 5 to build a virtual data center; chapter 2 demonstrates the process and technical details of building and managing a virtualization project through a complete case.
