Get the power of reactive, balanced and predictive
methods in a single solution:
vSphere with Operations Management
In a complex data center like yours, all three
risk mitigation methods are required to
fully manage contention.
PREDICTMove Workloads Before Any Contention Occurs

With the game-changing capabilities of Predictive DRS, integrated
with vRealize Operations, solve performance problems
before they happen.
Sophisticated
analytics
identify patterns
and create a band
of what is “normal”
for each
metric/object
combination
Balance workloads
in advance of
demand spikes
using Dynamic
Thresholds and
forecasted
utilization metrics
Predict future demand
and determine when
and where hot spots
will occur
Reduce moves for
predictable VMs
over time by
eliminating
potential resource
contentions
Minimize overhead
by only moving required
workloads

BALANCESpread Workloads Across Clusters
Leverage Intelligent Workload Placement and Rebalance,
using DRS and VMware vRealize Operations together, to
achieve optimal balance across the entire environment.
Mitigate the risk of
growing workloads
by balancing
workloads across
hosts and clusters
Control your
overhead tolerance
by setting the
amount of balance
you want to drive
Avoid hot spots
by spreading workloads
out evenly

Automatically move VMs whenever contention occurs
with VMware Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS).
