In a virtual server infrastructure where all resources are shared, optimal performance can only be achieved with an adequate amount of properly allocated resource capacity. Not allocating enough resources can cause critical bottlenecks - leading to performance problems and costly downtime events. 

Many organizations recognize the need for Chargeback, but simply do not know where to start. The workshop will walk through an easy to understand step by step approach for implementing Chargeback. 

Learn how VKernel's Chargeback Virtual Appliance helps companies gain cost visibility and chargeback on resource utilization; recover costs of ESX Infrastructure; and measure resource consumption by applications, resource pools and clusters. 

The VKernel VM Rightsizer is a simple tool for tuning your VMs with the right amount of resources (CPU, memory, and storage) to drive maximum VM densities without impacting performance. 

This paper addresses the fact that server virtualization is still a relatively new technology undergoing rapid development and innovation. While creating a virtual machine is relatively simple, the underlying complexity of the infrastructure and IT processes cannot be ignored. 

View this VKernel webcast to learn how to best optimize resource utilization in your current ESX environment. During this 30 minute presentation, we'll discuss how capacity planning is different in an ESX environment, resource alignment, and many other aspects of capacity planning within your current environment. 

Many organizations understand they need cost-visibility or a more formal chargeback process in order to further expand their virtual data centers. The challenge is where to begin and how to implement an automated solution. 

Gain insight into the top 10 best practices for improving virtual machine performance, and explore a unique online virtualization community. Discover the ten essential virtual management tools, as well as what to consider when making a purchase decision. 

By continuously monitoring shared capacity utilization trends in your VMware ESX environment, Capacity Analyzer significantly reduces the time and costs of identifying current capacity bottlenecks causing performance problems.
