VMware Philosophy on OpenStack

Customer Choice• VMware supports Customer choice.• Our support for OpenStack enables choice

OpenStack• An open framework for building clouds• Assembles a solution from underlying

Compute, Network, Storage components.• Can be managed and automated using

many solutions.

An Opportunity for VMware SDDC• VMware SDDC provides best-in-class

Compute, Network, Storage & management solutions for OpenStack.

• We view OpenStack as an opportunity for VMware SDDC portfolio.

Demo 1


• Neutron + NSX Plugin Pros:• Multi-tier architecture• No change on the physical fabric

No pre-provisioning of VLAN on the fabric. Actually no VLAN used at all!

Not available via "nova-network".

Demo 1


• Neutron + NSX Plugin Pros:• Multi-tier architecture• No change on the physical fabric• Distributed Routing• Very high scale

• In size of the cloud (thanks to the distribution "active/active" of the Control elements)Per NSX Domain: 60k VMs, 15k tenants, 1k hypervisors (and improved in each release)

• In throughput (thanks to the encapsulation off-loaded on the NIC)Per hypervisor: 20Gbps (with 2x10Gbps NIC bonding)Per NVP Gateway: 10Gbps++ (per NVP-GW and up to 10x NVP-GW are supported in a Cluster)

Not available via "nova-network" nor "Neutron".
