VMware vCloud™ Director gives customers the ability

to build secure private clouds that dramatically

increase datacenter eciency and business agility.

Coupled with VMware vSphere™, the best platform

for cloud infrastructures, VMware vCloud Director

delivers cloud computing for existing datacenters

by pooling virtual infrastructure resources and

delivering them to users as catalog-based services.

What is VMware vCloud

Director?

VMware vCloud Director is a software solution that enables

enterprises to build secure, multi-tenant private clouds by pooling

infrastructure resources into virtual datacenters and exposing

them to users through Web-based portals and programmatic

interfaces as fully automated, catalog-based services.

By building secure and cost-eective private clouds with VMware

vSphere and VMware vCloud Director, internal IT organizations

can act as true service providers for the businesses they support,

driving innovation and agility while increasing IT eciency and

enhancing security. This solution provides a pragmatic path to

cloud computing by giving customers the power to leverage

existing investments and the ﬂexibility to extend capacity

between clouds.

How Does VMware vCloud

Director Work?

Deliver Infrastructure as a Service

VMware vCloud Director enables IT organizations to deliver

resources to internal users as virtual datacenters. By logically

pooling compute, storage, and networking capacity into virtual

datacenters, IT organizations can manage resources more eciently

with complete abstraction between consumption and delivery of

IT services.

Instead of providing users or organizations with siloed physical

infrastructures, IT teams can deliver isolated virtual datacenters

that draw resources from a common physical infrastructure. By

pooling these physical resources on the back end, hardware

utilization and consolidation increases. Similarly, underlying

infrastructure can be pooled into tiers and oered to users at

distinct service levels and prices.

Consume Infrastructure as a Service

VMware vCloud Director also changes the way that users consume

IT services. Instead of ﬁling service desk tickets and waiting in queues,

application and line-of-business owners can utilize self-service

portals to access their own virtual datacenters. VMware vCloud

Director enables users to consume these resources as a catalog-

based service through a Web portal and programmatic interfaces.

VMware vCloud Director lets IT organizations create secure private clouds for delivering

IT resources as catalog-based services that users can consume on demand.

VMware vCloud Director

•Support multi-tenant environments – Administrators can

group users into organizations that can represent any policy

group, such as a business unit, division, or subsidiary company.

Each has isolated virtual resources, independent LDAP-

authentication, speciﬁc policy controls, and unique catalogs.

These features enable secure multi-tenancy and safe sharing

of infrastructure.

•vShield security technologies – Integrated vShield Edge

technologies such as perimeter protection, port-level

ﬁrewalling, network address translation and DHCP services,

oer virtualization-aware security, simplify application

deployment, and enforce boundaries required by compliance

standards. Upgrading to the full vShield Edge solution adds

advanced services such as site-to-site VPN, network isolation,

and Web load balancing.

•Infrastructure service catalog – Users are empowered to deploy

and consume pre-conﬁgured infrastructure and application

services, such as virtual appliances, virtual machines, operating

system images, and other media with the click of a button from

central catalogs. This enables IT teams to standardize oerings,

simplifying troubleshooting, patching, and change management.

•Self-service portal – Users get direct access to their catalogs

and virtual datacenters through a user-friendly Web portal.

•VMware vCloud API and Open Virtualization Format – The

vCloud API is an open, REST-based API that allows scripted

access to consume cloud resources, such as vApp upload/

download, catalog management, and other operations. The

vCloud API makes basic transfer between clouds possible

using the open virtualization format (OVF), which preserves

application properties, networking conﬁguration, and

other settings.

•Automation and orchestration – Leveraging the APIs in

conjunction with the VMware vCenter™ Orchestrator plug-in

and integrations with other orchestration and service management

software, administrators can automate routine tasks, build ITIL

workﬂows, and script complex operations with ease.

and requirements, refer to the product documentation.

IT teams can deﬁne multiple consumption models using the

same infrastructure, ranging from capacity-as-you-go to

reserved pools. These can be delivered at an appropriate cost

model with VMware vCenter™ Chargeback, which helps drive

accountability and enables granular usage monitoring.

Ultimately, IT organizations maintain control with permissions,

quotas and leases governed by role-based access controls that

leverage existing LDAP directory services.

How is VMware vCloud

Director Used?

In this new model, IT organizations become cloud service providers

for the business, achieving the beneﬁts of cloud computing without

sacriﬁcing security or control. Users experience unprecedented

responsiveness and agility, and IT management can reduce costs

through increased consolidation, task automation, and simpliﬁed

administration. All this is achieved cost-eectively while

leveraging existing investments in people and technology.

VMware vCloud Director integrates with existing VMware vSphere

deployments and supports existing and future applications by

providing elastic standard storage and networking interfaces, such

as Layer-2 connectivity and broadcasting between virtual machines.

VMware vCloud Director utilizes open standards to preserve

deployment ﬂexibility and pave the way to the hybrid cloud.

Through partnerships with a broad ecosystem of service

providers oering cloud services based on VMware vCloud

Director, customers can extend their datacenter capacity to

include secure and compatible public clouds and manage them

as easily as their own private cloud.

Key Features

•Create virtual datacenters – Virtual datacenters are logical

constructs that include compute, storage, and networking capacity

to enable complete abstraction between the consumption of

infrastructure services and the underlying resources.
