INDUSTRY LEADING VIRTUALIZATION PERFORMANCE
SPECvirt_sc2010: As of January 1, 2012, RHEV claims top 6 results and the only 8 socket server scores
17 RED HAT, INC. | RED HAT ENTERPRISE VIRTUALIZATION
INDUSTRY LEADERSHIP: SIGNIFICANT COST ADVANTAGE
● 10 physical hosts (2 sockets) ● Same density across both
● Even with the demise of vRAM in VMware vSphere 5.1, RHEV is still significantly lower cost for the same infrastructure● Higher ROI● Faster breakeven● Do your next project sooner● Change the economics of a
virtualization project
18 RED HAT, INC. | RED HAT ENTERPRISE VIRTUALIZATION
COST FOR PERFORMANCE OVER 3 YEARS
● VMware costs average $6.97/SPECvirt_sc2010 over three years● RHEV costs average $2.57/SPECvirt_sc2010 over three years● RHEV gives same or better performance, at 1/3 of the cost!!
