Data Director 2.5 Demo
Enterprise data centers have already increased their efficiency and decreased their operational costs by virtualizing more than 60% of their workloads. Now, their goal is to realize the same benefits with the plethora of relational databases. With the increasing popularity of Hadoop for analytics, virtualization presents an even more attractive way to get started with existing virtual infrastructure, and scale the data dynamically as needed.
VMware's vFabric Data Director extends the benefits of virtualization to both traditional relational databases like Oracle, SQL Server and Postgres as well as Big Data, multi-node data solutions like Hadoop. Since SQL Server and Oracle represent the majority of databases in enterprises, and, Hadoop is the one of the fastest growing data technologies in the enterprise, their support on the virtualized platform will be critical.
vFabric Data Director enables the most common databases found in the enterprise to be delivered as a service with the agility of public cloud and enterprise-grade security and control.
