  7. High Availability Challenges in VMware Environment

  8. Sources of Outages – Limitations of VMware HA VMware HA strength lies in protection against hardware failures 80% of unplanned outages are the result of application failures, misconfigurations and other operational errors Application awareness is essential to maximizing application availability

  9. vAppKeeper –Integrated High Availability with VMware

  10. vAppKeeper Brings Application Awareness to your VMware HA • Cost-effective high availability solution for applications that do not require multi-node clustering • No standby resources (hardware, software, etc.) necessary • Less complex to deploy and manage than multi-node clustering • Plugin allow management and monitoring through the vSphere Client • Allows customer to fully leverage VMware tools and automation without compatibility issues

  11. vAppKeeper - Single-Node Protection vSphere Client w/ vAppKeeper Plug-in OS SMC App vAK App vAK App vAK App vAK HTTP OS OS OS vMotion HA DRS VMware HA Application Monitoring API Browser-Based vAppKeeper UI

  12. vAppKeeper + VMware HA = Resiliency • vAppKeeper • Monitors the health and applications (A) and their dependencies (D) • Withholds heartbeat to instruct VMware HA to respond to an application failure (restart, VMotion) • VMware HA • Monitors physical host for failure • Monitors virtual machine for failure • Can monitor VMware Tools heartbeat to identify OS failure

  13. Enterprise Management Visibility vSphere Client dashboard and granular application hierarchy views Flexible Management Options Brower-based user interface Command-line interface Multi-level policy Temporal recovery logic
