When it comes to virtualization, people immediately think of VMware because VMware already accounts for 84% of the virtualization market. But VMware is clearly not satisfied, the booming cloud computing market is its target for the future of the big cake. July 13, VMware Global synchronization launched the vsphere 5 and cloud infrastructure suite, while continuing to consolidate its virtualized market positioning, on the other hand, to ensure its leadership in the cloud computing field. The two major products are expected to be fully traded in the third quarter of 2011.
Song, president of VMware Greater China, said in a news conference that when VMware launched the earlier version of virtualization software 3 years ago, people doubted that virtualization was really needed; 2 years ago, cloud computing was presented as a concept, but today more than 50% Enterprises use virtualization technology. Cloud computing is not only a breakthrough in computing, but also a breakthrough in business models, more and more cloud computing or cloud services in the implementation of the solution. To help achieve cloud computing, VMware has been planning and developing products that are easy to cloud computing practice in recent years.

VMware chief executive Paul Maritz specifically introduced the role of the new product through video. "The market has fully embraced virtualization, making it the next computing age-the core innovation technology of the cloud computing age," says Paul Maritz. With the vsphere 5 and cloud Infrastructure suite, VMware is helping customers accelerate the development of more efficient automated cloud infrastructures, improve the way in which resources are managed and protected, and ultimately improve the relationship between it and its service business. ”
It is reported that VMware vsphere 5 has nearly 200 new and enhanced features, continue to lead the new standards of virtualization technology, for all types of key applications to provide better performance, as well as expanding data center resources to automate management. VMware has also launched a new VMware VShield 5, VMware vcenter Site Recovery Manager 5, and VMware vcloud Director 1.5, which will be with VMware vsphere 51 implementation of cloud computing level operations, increase the value of virtualization resources for customers.
Speaking of the role of the cloud infrastructure suite, VMware Senior product manager Wu Qinu says the VMware Cloud Infrastructure Suite will help organizations build intelligent infrastructures that combine highly virtualized environments with the automation, self-service, and security features that customers need to help customers:
• Deploy critical business applications to stop worrying--vmware vsphere 5 's outstanding performance and scalability will help customers easily run resource-intensive, critical business applications in virtualized and cloud computing environments.
• Leverage the flexibility of cloud computing to respond more quickly to business needs-from rapid provisioning of new resources to intelligent management of ongoing operations-VMware's cloud infrastructure suite will greatly simplify the infrastructure management process.
• Easy completion of cloud computing porting--vmware is developing security from a physical model to a policy-driven and managed virtual software model, reassure customers about the security of applications and data, regardless of where they are located, and whether they move frequently between private clouds, public clouds, and mixed cloud environments.
Vsphere 5: Improving the Cloud infrastructure Foundation
As the most trusted and widely deployed virtualization platform in the world, VMware Vsphere has become the foundation of the VMware Cloud Infrastructure suite. Designed to meet the needs of multiple virtualization and cloud infrastructures, VMware vsphere has been widely adopted by large enterprises, small and medium enterprises (SMB), public cloud service providers and has become the foundation of the evolving Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) market. More and more customers are choosing VMware vsphere as the standard configuration of the enterprise strategic IT platform.
VMware vsphere 5 supports virtual machines (VMs) that are four times times more performance than previous generations, with virtual memory space reaching 1TB and virtual CPUs reaching 32. Virtual machines can handle Padovan I/O operations per second, far exceeding the requirements of resource-intensive applications. Combined with the improved and streamlined VMware vsphere 5 high-availability, customers will easily run critical business applications.

VMware vsphere 5 also adds three new flagship features to extend the platform's unique data center resource management capabilities and provide intelligent policy management to support automated server deployment and storage management without intervention. The customer only needs to make a policy, set operational parameters, and the rest will be done by VMware vsphere 5. VMware vsphere 5 also features new automated deployments, attribute-driven storage, and storage DRS, which can save the equivalent of one-year management time for customers in 1000 virtual machine environments.
"Since 2005, VMware Vsphere has become one of the main platforms for our Windows Server virtualization," said Nelson Ho, an assistant general manager from Hong Kong Orient Overseas Container Lines Limited (OOCL), and since 2009, We started migrating a large number of Linux systems to virtualized environments. Vsphere scalability, stability, and flexibility enable our mission-critical business systems to be successfully virtualized, moving from proprietary UNIX platforms to open x86 platforms. Last year, we also successfully deployed high reliability applications based on Oracle RAC in the VMware vsphere 4 environment. Given the excellent new features and breakthrough upgrades that the VMware Cloud Infrastructure suite and VSPHERE5 have, we will continue to choose VMware as our cloud technology partner.
