vCenter Architecture
vCenter installs prior to version 6
Each individual major service (vCenter, Single Sign-On, Inventory Service, the vSphere Web Client, Auto Deploy, etc.) was installed individually.
This added complexity and uncertainty in determining the best way to architect the environment
19
vCenter Architecture
vSphere 6.0, vCenter Server installation and configuration has been dramatically simplified
Installation now consists of only two components that provide all services
• Platform Services Controller – This provides infrastructure services for the datacenter. The Platform Services Controller contains these services:
– vCenter Single Sign-On, License Service, Lookup Service, VMware Directory Service, and VMware Certificate Authority
• vCenter Services – The vCenter Server group of services provides the remainder of the vCenter Server functionality, which includes:
– vCenter Server, vSphere Web Client, vCenter Inventory Service, vSphere Auto Deploy, vSphere ESXi Dump Collector, vSphere Syslog Collector (Microsoft Windows)/VMware Syslog Service (Appliance)

“I am looking for cost-savings,
efficiency and the ability to
expand when we need to,
quickly. And that’s something the
Virtual SAN lets us do in every
case.
For the Doe Fund, you know, it is
the holy grail of storage.”

Intelligent Workload
Balancing
Problem:
• Workloads are often placed sub-
optimally, resulting in inefficient
usage of clusters.
• Ongoing balancing of resources
is a difficult, time-consuming,
and non-strategic activity.
Solution:
• Visualize how your clusters are
loaded with workloads across
clusters, vCenters, data centers.
• Get a Balancing Plan that
recommends optimal placement
of the workloads and balances
the workloads across clusters.
