The three areas include; Virtualized compute loads on vSphere, virtualized software defined networks (SDN) with network function virtualization (NFV) with NSX and multi-tenant administration with vCloud Director.
Details and challenges in implementation and migration are covered. The mechanisms for guaranteeing enough performance for the four hardware resources, processor, memory, storage, and networking are reviewed. The course also provides an insight into the benefits and challenges of virtual networking, including inside virtual machines (VMs), virtualized VXLAN overlay networks, and hardware acceleration.
Note: This course is not delivered with the FoldOut methodology.
