  3. What is Parallels Virtual Automation? Parallels Summit 2008

  4. Why would HSP need Virtualization? • Application Hosting • True VPS • Managed VPS • Dynamic Dedicated • Split Dedicated • Virtualized Infrastructure • Shared Hosting ! Availability (long time-to-recover) ! ! Resource Management (utilization) ! ! No customers isolation (failure impact) ! • Split-Shared • Software-as-a-service Virtualization Parallels Summit 2008

  5. Virtualization management challenges • Virtualization Benefits • Availability • Online Migration • Online Backup/Restore • Resource Management • On-the-fly allocation • Resource pools delegation • Optimize workloads • Full Isolation & Security • End-user Freedom • Dynamic Provisioning • Management Challenges • 10s times more OS instances to manage • Configuration • Monitoring • Compliance with SLA • Allocate/adjust resources • Mass management • Integration with existing management system How to realize benefits of Virtualization and address management challenges? Parallels Summit 2008

  6. Virtualization management system req.         • Template-based mass provisioning • Mass-operations and mass-configuration • Centralized backup and recovery • Centralized view on availability and SLA compliance • Centralized monitoring and resource usage collection • Multi-level delegation and self-service panels • Accessible from anywhere • Integration and Customization Parallels Virtual Automation (PVA) Parallels Summit 2008
