3 Agenda 1 Virtual SAN Overview 2 Architecture and Data Services 3 Predictable Performance / Scalability and Availabilities 4 Disaster Recovery & Data Protection 5 Operations 6 vsphere Platform Interoperability 7 Use Cases 8 Roadmap 3
4 VMware Virtual SAN, what is it? Software-Defined Storage Distributed, Scale-out Architecture Hyper-Converged Infrastructure vsphere & Virtual SAN Integrated with vsphere platform Ready for today s vsphere use cases 4
5 Why VMware Hyper-Converged Software? VMware HCS Radically Simple Highest Performance Lowest Cost vcenter Server vsphere 1 Integrated software stack >100K IOPS per node $1/GB On all-flash Virtual SAN Most Flexible Deployment Options x86 Server Hardware Engineered Appliance Virtual SAN Ready Nodes 5
6 Radically Simple Configuration Virtual SAN is a cluster level feature deployed, configured and manage from vcenter Server: UI + API 6
7 Storage Policy-Based Management App centric automation Virtual Machine Storage Policy Number of disk stripes per object Flash Read Cache Reservation % Number of failures to tolerate Force Provisioning Object Space Reservation % No 100 Storage Policy-Based Management vsphere + Virtual SAN Operational Benefits Stable, Robust Automation Platform Intelligent placement Fine control of services at VM level Automation at scale through policy Single Self-tuning Datastore No more management of LUNs Virtual SAN Datastore 7
8 Tiered Hybrid and All-Flash Architectures Hybrid All-Flash SSD PCIe Ultra DIMM Read and Write Cache Caching SSD PCIe Ultra DIMM Writes cached first, Reads from capacity tier Virtual SAN Capacity Tier SAS / NL-SAS / SATA 40K IOPS per Host Data Persistence Capacity Tier Flash Devices Reads go directly to capacity tier 90K IOPS per Host + sub-millisecond latency 8
9 Virtual SAN Architecture esxi-01 esxi-02 esxi-03 Minimum cluster size: 3 >>> 2 hosts + data center witness Maximum cluster size: 64 hosts vsphere & Virtual SAN Uniform hosts recommended Disks: Locally attached disks o Flash: SSD, PCIe, NVMe, UltraDIMM vsandatastore o Magnetic: SAS, SATA VMDK Network o 1GB Ethernet OR o 10GB Ethernet (preferred) Resource consumption o CPU: < 10% typical workloads REPLICA-1 VMDK VMDK REPLICA-2 o Memory: function of storage; up to 32 GB for fully populated storage h/w 9
10 Virtual SAN Hyper-converged Architecture Typical Hyper-Converged Solution VMware Virtual SAN Storage VM vsphere Efficiency of a Single Software Stack vsphere + Virtual SAN 2x CPU efficiency 3x memory efficiency vsphere Client APIs Third Party Simplicity of Native Integration vsphere Client Native vmotion Native DRS Native HA Single pane glass Pre-Defined Flexibility of Hardware Agnostic Latest hardware Form factors Flexible Config 10
11 Virtual SAN Storage Consumption Compelling Capex => 2 tiers of storage Combine properties of technologies Device claiming on ESX hosts Each host: 5 disk groups max. Each disk group: 1 flash device capacity devices disk group disk group disk group disk group disk group Automated or (semi) manual Disk Groups Up to 5 disk groups / host 1 Caching device / disk group 1 7 Capacity devices / disk group Controllers Pass-through or RAID-0 mode Attn: Queue depth Attn: # drives per controller 11
12 Two Tiers of Storage: Hybrid All writes and the vast majority of reads are served by flash storage Optimize cost of storage HDDs: cheap capacity ($0.10/GB), expensive IOPS ($5/IOPS) Flash: expensive capacity ($2/GB), cheap IOPS ($0.01/IOPS) Combine best of both worlds Performance from Flash, capacity from HDD Read Cache 70% + Write-back Buffer 30% ARC Protocol Optimize workload per tier Random IO to Flash (high IOPS) Sequential IO to HDD (high throughput) A performance tier tuned for virtualized workloads High IOPS, low $/IOPS Low, predictable latency Achieved with modest capacity: ~10% of HDD 12
13 Two Tiers of Storage: All-Flash Optimize cost of flash storage High-endurance (2-3 TBWPD), expensive capacity ($2-$5/GB) Low-endurance (0.2 TBWPD), cheap capacity (<$1/GB) Most cost-efficient model Small expensive high-endurance write cache Large inexpensive low-endurance capacity tier Optimize workload per tier Keep frequently written data in write cache Lots of Read IOPS from capacity tier LRU Protocol 13
14 Virtual SAN Objects esxi-01 esxi-02 esxi-03 vsphere & Virtual SAN Virtual SAN manages data in the form of flexible data containers called objects. A Virtual Machine consists of multiple objects: VM Home VM swap VMDK Snapshots Memory Virtual machine objects are split into multiple components based on performance and availability requirements defined in VM Storage profile. Virtual SAN Datastore 14
15 Object and Components Layout /vmfs/volumes/vsandatastore/foo/ foo.vmx,.log, etc foo2.vmdk The VM Home directory object is formatted with VMFS to allow a VM s configuration files to be stored on it. Mounted under the root dir vsandatastore VMFS foo1.vmdk R1 Virtual SAN Storage Objects Availability policy refelcted on number of replicas R0 R0 R0 Performance policy may include a stripe width per replica disk group disk group disk group disk group disk group Object components may reside in different disks and/or hosts VSAN network VSAN network VSAN network VSAN network VSAN network 15
16 Distributed Caching esxi-01 esxi-02 esxi-03 Hybrid caching 70% Read Cache, 30% Write-back buffer VMDK vsphere & Virtual SAN vsandatastore No caching on local flash where VM runs Flash latencies 100x network latencies No data transfers, no perf hit during VM migration Better overall Flash utilization (most expensive resource) Use local cache when it matters In-memory CBRC (RAM << Network latency) Lots of block sharing (VDI) More options in the (near) future 16
17 Consistent Performance with VM mobility Orders per minute 5-minute moving average vmotion vmotion Orders per minute Consistent performance throughout Time (seconds) 17

Redundancy Performance Availability Capacity Space Efficiency Enables efficient operating models simplified provisioning management troubleshooting Virtual SAN Datastore
36 Virtual Machine Provisioning Operations Virtual SAN Datastore understands the capabilities in the VM Storage Policy, it will be displayed as a matching resource. 39
37 Virtual Machine Provisioning Operations If the VSAN Datastore can satisfy the VM Storage Policy, the VM Summary tab will display the VM as compliant. If not, due to failures, or the force provisioning capability, the VM will be shown as non-compliant. 40
38 Maintenance Mode Planned downtime 3 Maintenance mode options: Ensure accessibility Full data migration No data migration

40 Serviceability: Performance Monitoring Cluster Level Host Level Disk Group Level Disk Level 43
41 Failure Handling Philosophy Traditional SANs Physical drive needs to be replaced to get back to full redundancy Hot-spare disks are set aside to take role of failed disks immediately In both cases: 1:1 replacement of disk Virtual SAN Entire cluster is a hot-spare, we always want to get back to full redundancy When a disk fails, many small components (stripes or mirrors of objects) fail New copies of these components can be spread around the cluster for balancing Replacement of the physical disk just adds back resources Resync Operations Performed in background May impact application performance due to I/O traffic contention Virtual SAN automatically balances the load for fair distribution
