VMware vCenter Server provides centralized management of vSphere virtual infrastructure. IT administrators can ensure security and availability, simplify day-to-day tasks, and reduce the complexity of managing virtual infrastructure.
vCenter Server provides centralized management of virtualized hosts and virtual machines from a single console. It gives administrators deep visibility into the configuration of the critical components of a virtual infrastructure—all from one place. With vCenter Server, virtual environments are easier to manage: a single administrator can manage hundreds of workloads, more than doubling typical productivity when managing physical infrastructure. With automated proactive management, vCenter Server allows service levels to be met by dynamically provisioning new services, balancing resources and automating high availability.
Quickly deploy vCenter Server using host profiles or a Linux-based virtual appliance. Integration of VMware Update Manager into vCenter Server Appliance makes configuration fast and easy. New APIs allow for the deployment of vCenters based off of a template, speeding up the time taken to deploy a vCenter. Backup your vCenter Appliance to file, via industry-standard protocols, while vCenter is still up and running. Restore by simply pointing a fresh appliance to the backup location and files will be downloaded to the new vCenter Server Appliance.
No third-party products are required. Replicate roles, permissions and licenses across the infrastructure so you can simultaneously log in, view and search the inventories of all vCenter servers. Simplify vCenter topology with vCenter and the embedded platform services controller in enhanced linked mode. Link multiple vCenters and increase visibility without using load balancers. Allocate and optimize resources for maximum efficiency with vCenter Server.
