VMware Announces General Availability of VMware vSphere® 5
VMware vSphere 5 supports virtual machines (VMs) that are up to four times more powerful than previous versions – VMs can now be configured with up to 1 terabyte of memory and 32 virtual CPUs. When combined with VMware vSphere 5’s enhanced High Availability, these gains in VM scalability and performance enable customers to virtualize any business-critical applications with confidence in the application’s continued performance and availability.
VMware vSphere 5 also introduces three key new flagship features ? Auto-Deploy, Profile-Driven Storage and Storage DRS ? that extend the platform’s unique datacenter resource management capabilities, delivering intelligent policy management to support an automated “set it and forget it” approach to managing datacenter resources, including server deployment and storage management. Customers can define policies and establish the operating parameters, and VMware vSphere 5 does the rest.
