WHAT'S NEW IN VSPHERE 8?

Date: March 27, 2023 Author: Global Knowledge
 * 
 * 
 * 

As organizations embrace cloud, they are beginning to turn a new chapter in the
era of multi-cloud. Multi-cloud has quickly become the dominant deployment
model. According to a 451 Research study, 75% of all enterprises have
multi-cloud footprints. Many enterprises choose to run mission critical
workloads on-premises to take advantage of data locality, predictable workload
performance and low network latency. As larger masses of data accumulate in the
enterprise, they tend to attract more local services and applications to
minimize latency, increase throughput, and maximize workload performance.

VMware vSphere 8 is the enterprise workload platform that brings the benefits of
cloud to on-premises workloads. It supercharges performance with DPU and GPU
based acceleration, enhances operational efficiency through the VMware Cloud
Console, seamlessly integrates with add-on hybrid cloud services, and
accelerates innovation with an enterprise-ready integrated Kubernetes runtime
that runs containers alongside VMs.
Let’s get into more detail.

 


GET CLOUD BENEFITS ON-PREMISES

Enhance existing on-premises workloads in place with cloud services.

In June of last year, VMware launched VMware vSphere+, a new offering from the
vSphere family, which combines industry-leading cloud infrastructure technology,
an enterprise-ready Kubernetes environment, and high-value cloud services to
transform existing on-premises deployments into SaaS-enabled infrastructure .
vSphere 8 takes these benefits several steps further.

With vSphere 8, IT admins can deploy the following add-on cloud services that
protect workloads and optimize infrastructure, with more on the way.

VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery add-on service drives resilience of mission
critical workloads by protecting them from disasters and ransomware.

VMware vRealize Operations add-on service provides capacity planning and
optimization for your infrastructure with the right size to fit the current and
future needs of your workloads.

 


SUPERCHARGE WORKLOAD PERFORMANCE

Meet the throughput and latency needs of modern distributed workloads

vSphere 8 ushers in a new era of heterogeneous computing by introducing Data
Processing Units to Enterprises through VMware vSphere Distributed Services
Engine. vSphere Distributed Services Engine is the next step in the evolution of
cloud infrastructure for modern applications, in which the stewardship for
running infrastructure services is distributed between the CPU and the DPU.

vSphere Distributed Services Engine modernizes cloud infrastructure into a
distributed architecture enabled by DPUs to:

 * Meet the throughput and latency needs of modern distributed workloads by
   accelerating networking functions
 * Deliver best infrastructure price-performance by providing more CPU resources
   to workloads
 * Reduce operational overhead of DPU lifecycle management with integrated
   vSphere workflows

vSphere Distributed Services Engine preserves the existing Day-0, Day-1 and
Day-2 vSphere experience, with which customers are familiar. It is supported on
a broad choice of DPUs from leading silicon vendors (NVIDIA & AMD) and server
designs from OEMs (Dell, HPE).

Distributed Services Engine offloads and accelerates vSphere Distributed Switch
and NSX Networking on the DPU, with additional services to follow in the future.
So right away, this will benefit customers running applications that demand high
network bandwidth and fast cache access such as in-memory databases.

VMware’s internal benchmarking study running Redis on a DPU-enabled host
achieved 36% better throughput along with a 27% reduction in transaction
latency. In another scenario, a DPU-enabled host achieved performance similar to
a non-DPU system, with 20% fewer CPU cores. These powerful results show how
vSphere 8 enables customers to lower total cost of computing and improve
workload performance.

 


ENHANCE OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY

Efficiently reduce IT maintenance windows.

IT admins spend a lot of time upgrading and maintaining infrastructure. Though
regular maintenance operations help ensure uptime and availability, they take
time away from running business critical applications. vSphere 8 optimizes
maintenance windows by pre-staging ESXi image downloads and performing
simultaneous upgrades on hosts, allowing teams to return faster to regular
operations.

With the growth of workloads on-premises and at the edge, initial placement and
migration are critical aspects that help infrastructure teams maximize service
availability, balance utilization, and minimize downtime. vSphere 8 gives a
major upgrade to vSphere Distributed Resource Scheduler and vMotion. Distributed
Resources Scheduler now factors workload memory usage into placement decisions.
It can now place workloads more optimally by taking into consideration memory
needs of workloads.

vMotion now supports migration of VMs running on hosts that support Intel
Scalable I/O Virtualization (Intel SIOV). Workloads can now simultaneously enjoy
the benefits of SIOV passthrough performance and mobility across the vSphere
infrastructure.

According to an IDC study, 65% of the global GDP will be digitalized by 2022(4).
The IDC study points out the Global Data Sphere is expected to double between
2022 and 2026(5). As the footprint of computing continues to grow, many
enterprises are starting to think about sustainable ways to operate
infrastructure. VMware has taken the first step in helping enterprises develop
sustainable computing strategies. vSphere 8 introduces Green Metrics – that help
you track power consumed by workloads and infrastructure operations. This is
just the first step in helping customers realize the potential and opportunities
to reduce their carbon footprint while meeting business objectives.

 


ACCELERATE INNOVATION FOR DEVOPS

Easily discover, access and deploy developer services.

While Kubernetes has gained widespread adoption as the de-facto container
orchestration technology, IT organizations need a simple and easy way to manage
containers alongside VMs. That is why VMware created a streamlined Kubernetes
management experience that is natively built into vSphere. With vSphere 8,
VMware is delivering VMware Tanzu Kubernetes Grid 2.0 – designed to help IT
teams and developers address the growing complexity of agile development
environments. This latest release of Tanzu Kubernetes Grid adds new flexibility
and control for cluster creation, open-source API alignment, and improved
application lifecycle management capabilities.

DevOps teams spend a significant amount of time setting up Kubernetes clusters.
Even in cases where infrastructure services are readily accessible, they are
designed to meet the needs of IT admins and not necessarily integrated with the
development environment. As a result, developers either rely on IT admins to
provision developer services or stand-up infrastructure silos to address their
needs. With vSphere 8, DevOps teams can now access IaaS services (like
provisioning VMs, networking, setting up Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters) easily
from the new Cloud Consumption Interface service. The Cloud Consumption
Interface simplifies infrastructure setup across the vSphere estate through
intuitive UIs and developer friendly APIs, freeing up time that can be spent on
real development efforts.
