VMware vSphere 8

vSphere Essentials Kit and Essentials Plus Kit are designed for small businesses that are getting started with virtualization. Both provide virtualization and centralized management for up to three server hosts. vSphere Essentials Kit provides server consolidation to help you get the most out of your hardware and reduce hardware costs.

vSphere Essentials Plus Kit provides business continuity with a smaller IT footprint, which reduces overall hardware costs. Small businesses can ensure business continuity without shared storage hardware by using features such as vSphere High Availability (automatic restart of applications when server failures are detected) and vSphere vMotion (elimination of planned downtime during server maintenance). Protect your business applications and data with features such as VMware vSphere Data Protection (agent-less, image-level VM backup/recovery and application-aware protection for business critical applications) and VMware vShield Endpoint (agentless antivirus and antimalware protection for virtual machines). vSphere Replication adds low-cost replication for your virtual machines and provides a foundation for small businesses to leverage a cloud-based disaster-recovery solution from a VMware cloud service provider.

VMware vSphere, the industry-leading virtualization platform, empowers users to virtualize any application with confidence, redefines availability, and simplifies the virtual data center. The result is a highly available, resilient, on-demand infrastructure that is the ideal foundation for any cloud environment. This blockbuster release contains the following new features and enhancements, many of which are industry-first features.
