VMware Technology Overview
Old Model:
Traditional x86 Architecture
• Single OS image per machine
• Software and hardware tightly coupled
• Multiple applications often conflict
• Underutilized resources introduce real

cost into the infrastructure
à Old model doesn’t work anymore!

VMware Technology Overview
New Model:
VMware Technology
• Separate OS and hardware – break
hardware dependencies
• Manage OS and application as single

unit by encapsulating them into VMs
• Strong fault and security isolation
• Standard, HW independent
environments can be provisioned
anywhere
• Flexibility to chose the right OS for

the right application
à Works with what you have today…
