3 Drive Application Velocity. Transform Your Business. Competitive organizations demand that IT leaders increase the velocity of new application development. By improving time to market, enterprises can more effectively address competitive threats, accelerate success in new business opportunities and meet business objectives. Business applications are central to many strategic initiatives. Therefore, it is imperative for IT to simplify the development, delivery and management of new customer-facing and internal applications while ensuring that they meet evolving business requirements. Yet delivering increasingly sophisticated functionality in shorter development cycles is difficult for teams relying on heavyweight application development and runtime environments that predate the cloud computing era. For example, development teams are challenged to leverage full-stack Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) application servers. Many IT organizations are re-architecting their application infrastructure to eliminate redundancy, consolidate solutions and implement more modern platforms for greater agility that will accommodate tomorrow s growing business environment. For IT leaders looking to transform the application lifecycle, VMware provides a customer-proven cloud application platform for modernizing legacy applications and accelerating new, modern application development and delivery. VMware enables enterprises to follow a pragmatic path that increases agility while reducing the complexity and operational costs of application development and delivery. Modernize Applications. Today s IT organizations are aware that modern applications are dramatically different from prior generations and increasingly: Web-oriented Users expect access to applications and data from a variety of sources, on a variety of devices anytime, anywhere. This requires enterprises to provide Web-based access from desktop computers and mobile devices. Dynamic To handle predictable and sudden unpredictable spikes in traffic, businesses must deploy infrastructure that easily scales applications, pools resources, and quickly and automatically adjusts capacity adding it and releasing it, as needed. Businesses must also be able to easily reconfigure application architecture to ensure greater application speed or reliability. Real-time Business and government leaders want to make decisions based on real-time situational awareness. Whether the goal is to improve customer satisfaction, create competitive advantage or identify potential threats, they cannot afford to act on outdated information. 1
4 IT is undergoing a transformation: Applications are changing, infrastructure is changing, and organizations are looking for a pathway to harness the promise of the cloud. Application platforms of today have markedly different requirements than those we have relied upon in the past. VMware vfabric is evolving to meet the needs of today s organizations. 2 Rachel Chalmers Director, Infrastructure, The 451 Group Data-intensive The volume of data flowing through businesses is predicted to grow by percent a year. 1 Managing this growth using a traditional relational database approach is costly because these systems are unable to scale horizontally. Organizations want access to real-time data delivered more cost-efficiently and systems that can scale elastically as demand requires. Virtualized By enabling faster provisioning, virtualization allows enterprises to simplify application delivery and further reduce time to market for new applications. Modern applications will likely be deployed on virtual infrastructure or within private, public or hybrid clouds. Organizations must consider how to ensure that these applications are portable so that they can run in the most appropriate environment for business needs. Develop and Deploy Modern Applications with VMware. IT organizations need a new approach to application development and deployment to accommodate these modern application characteristics. They need a new model conceived and designed with the cloud in mind. As the global leader in virtualization and cloud infrastructure, VMware delivers it. The VMware vfabric Cloud Application Platform is engineered to enable IT to efficiently build, run and scale modern, data-intensive applications and deploy them in private, public or enterprise hybrid clouds. The vfabric platform improves application delivery by intelligently leveraging underlying infrastructure for the highest application performance, quality of service and resource utilization. VMware Solutions Enhance Application Development, Delivery and Management Figure 1: VMware Cloud Application Platform solutions support the complete cloud application lifecycle. 2
5 Reduce Development Complexity. Modernize Your Applications. Many IT organizations have focused on tactical short-term initiatives and have not substantially updated their application infrastructure in decades. The result is an aging infrastructure that is complex, inefficient, inflexible and costly to maintain. VMware solutions accelerate application modernization by reducing development complexity. At the same time, they dramatically lower costs and enable a flexible application deployment model that better supports users and business needs. Increase Developer Productivity with a Proven Application Framework. IT organizations have embraced the Spring development framework to deliver high-quality, modern enterprise and Web applications. More than three million developers use Spring now the most popular Java development framework in the world. Unlike legacy Java EE platforms, Spring speeds the creation of enterprise, Web and integration applications. The core values of Spring include increasing developer productivity, and ensuring application portability and quality. These capabilities have made Spring the de facto standard for developing enterprise Java applications for banks, governments and e-commerce, as well as for packaged independent software vendors (ISVs). The application development framework of choice for 83 percent of organizations with large development teams, 3 the open source Spring framework delivers dramatic advantages in every phase of the application lifecycle. Spring significantly reduces the amount of coding required, ensures high reusability of code, supports application portability and simplifies application testing. A recent study shows that Spring accelerates overall development by more than 50 percent compared with traditional approaches, greatly speeding time to market for new applications. 4 For enterprises modernizing applications and moving to the cloud, vfabric with Spring provides the best path forward for developing mobile and social applications in a framework already familiar to millions of developers. New capabilities in Spring Mobile, Spring Android and Spring Social equip applications with the latest features to run on the newest generation of end-user devices. Spring Data Access adds the capability to interact with non-relational data sources such as key-value, graph and document data stores, as well as distributed data caches. Gain Deployment Efficiency and Productivity with vfabric. When it comes to application deployment, platform consistency can be a major challenge for enterprise development teams. For example, a production environment might run on legacy Java EE application servers, but developers still choose to build and test applications using a lightweight application server. The vfabric Telecom Italia Using Spring, our development time, debugging and testing is reduced by 30 percent. This is a critical advantage because of our tight deadlines for prototype delivery. 5 Marco Ughetti Senior Software Architect in the Information Technology Innovation Group, Telecom Italia 3
6 LinkedIn Spring is nonintrusive, allowing LinkedIn developers to concentrate on business logic and code, without having to worry as much about the infrastructure. 8 vfabric Speeds Application Development and Delivery Yan Pujante Distinguished Software Engineer and Member of the Founding Team, LinkedIn Corporation Figure 2: vfabric provides infrastructure consistency from development to quality assurance (QA) to choice of production locations. platform includes an enterprise version of Apache Tomcat a popular, lightweight application server that runs in production at some of the largest global organizations. vfabric leverages Tomcat at its core to simply and unify development, testing and production environments, decreasing the cost of updates. The flexible solution also ensures consistent management. Reduce Costs with Lightweight Runtime Services. Lightweight runtime environments such as vfabric typically cost enterprises percent less than legacy solutions. 6 They also enable greater application server consolidation ratios at least two times greater when deployed on VMware virtualized environments. 7 Purpose-built to support applications developed with modern frameworks such as Spring, vfabric provides superior scalability, performance, management and system utilization. Unlike traditional Java EE servers with large disk and memory footprints, the vfabric platform s lean architecture maximizes disk, memory and CPU resources. When deployed with VMware vsphere the industry s leading virtualization platform used to optimize underlying computing infrastructures the tightly integrated solution ensures that applications deliver unmatched deployment automation and selfservice provisioning. 4
7 Take a Modern Approach to Data. Enable Real-Time Decisions. Data in the enterprise is growing exponentially year after year. To harness its value, businesses are seeking better ways to achieve elastic scale. They also want to simplify database provisioning and enforce governance to improve security and eliminate database sprawl. Meanwhile, real-time access to data is now a business imperative. dynamic data. In business and government, the need has never been greater for IT to provide decision makers with a single, consistent view of data that is constantly changing. With data rapidly crossing borders, significant events must be detected so that the necessary systems are updated and the appropriate personnel are alerted. bet365.com GemFire technology had the scale, flexibility and reliability to make our systems our strength. 9 Martin Davies Chief Technology Officer, bet365.com With most enterprise data stored in monolithic relational database management systems (RDBMSs), businesses are being forced to scale their databases vertically by adding larger machines in big quantities to handle the current explosion of data. However, this has increased license costs and management overhead. Today s enterprises want to scale systems both incrementally by leveraging commoditized x86 hardware and dynamically, up and down, in response to variable dataconsumption demands. Yet their RDBMSs are incapable of partitioning data; nor are they optimized for virtual or cloud environments. The latency issues associated with traditional RDBMS queries coupled with the challenge of working with outdated information subject enterprises to undetected risk and missed revenue opportunities. For example, a less than optimal user experience with a travel Web site would likely result in a lost sale. Now imagine hundreds of lost sales all because of slow page refreshes and outdated booking information. IT teams must enable the regional and global distribution of very Speed Data Delivery. As IT leaders look for ways to mitigate data latency issues and achieve real-time data capabilities, they are rethinking their databasecentric architectures. To support cloud applications and to improve scalability and performance while reducing costs, many are moving from RDBMSs designed decades ago to non-traditional databases. vfabric improves high-performance data management by delivering in-memory speed and dynamic scalability with the reliability, security and data management capabilities of a traditional database. Gain Elastic Scale and High- Performance Data with VMware. Memory-based database technology which can complement or replace existing database infrastructure has emerged as the approach of choice for global data grids and cloud data management. By managing data in-memory, vfabric is designed to handle exponential data growth and real-time data access and processing. It allows data to sleep in the database but to live in the data fabric, so that data is always accessible and up to date. 5
8 With its built-in, distributed data management platform, vfabric provides dynamic scalability, high performance and database-like persistence. It blends advanced techniques such as replication, partitioning, data-aware routing and continuous querying to help enterprises achieve unparalleled performance. It also includes database-class reliability and improves operational efficiency with nondisruptive up-and-down scalability. Power Database as a Service for the Cloud. Frustrating to both development teams and database administrators (DBAs), the cumbersome database provisioning process has led to unprecedented database sprawl. vfabric offers just-in-time provisioning of fully configured databases in minutes. Included are built-in, automated policies to enable, monitor and test database backup and recovery, saving DBAs time and enhancing business agility. vfabric increases developer productivity by allowing a developer to use a self-service portal to get a clone up and ready in minutes rather than days regardless of database size. A series of vsphere optimized databases, beginning with the popular PostgreSQL, will allow IT teams to take advantage of virtual and cloud evironments. VMware Delivers a Modern Approach to Data Management Figure 3: vfabric delivers in-memory speed and elastic scalability with the reliability, security and data management capabilities of a traditional database. 6
9 Experience Freedom of Choice. Deliver Portability Between Clouds. VMware enables the delivery of enterprise private clouds, and it partners with more than 3,500 service providers to deliver compatible public cloud infrastructures. The vfabric Cloud Application Platform provides a pragmatic path to a seamless, dynamic operating environment through a common runtime environment and common management services between clouds. To provide maximum flexibility for IT teams to deploy applications onsite or offsite, VMware has established strategic relationships with leading service providers including Bluelock, Colt, Terremark, SingTel, CSC and Verizon. These partnerships deliver application portability and enable developers to quickly and easily deploy Spring applications on their choice of public cloud platforms powered by these VMware vcloud Datacenter service providers. This integrated approach bridges private cloud application services with available public cloud services, enabling enterprises to achieve the full flexibility and benefits of cloud computing. The result is a hybrid cloud a model that offers the best of both worlds at the lowest total cost, without compromise. Hybrid clouds enable lower IT spend through virtualization and consolidation, optimized workload sourcing, optimized provisioning, and higher productivity in application development and maintenance. CSC The development community has chosen the Spring Framework for the development of Java applications due to the core tenets of productivity and application portability. As organizations move business processes to the cloud, they identify ideal workloads to transform, and we are giving them a simple, secure and managed infrastructure upon which to run those applications, on a platform that is optimized for Spring applications. 11 Siki Giunta Vice President Cloud Computing and Hosting Services, CSC Developers can dynamically move Spring applications, as needed, between a private cloud environment and VMware enabled clouds hosted by vcloud providers. In fact, all five cloud service providers placed in the leaders quadrant in the most recent Gartner, Inc. Magic Quadrant for Cloud Infrastructure as a Service and Web Hosting 10 are partially or wholly VMware based. 7
10 With Java EE being a major platform on enterprise, a good PaaS platform like vfabric is very exciting. This gives a lot of choices for existing Java EE-based applications to move to the cloud. 12 Cloud Computing Journal March 20, 2011 Meet Your Business Needs. Let Licenses Match Your Use. VMware understands how important it is for businesses to rapidly and cost-effectively respond to changing requirements. Whether your enterprise needs to meet seasonal demands or react to a specific market, customer or competitive development, VMware offers the right vfabric software configuration, at the right price. The unique vfabric licensing and pricing model allows enterprises to purchase application infrastructure software based on virtual machines rather than physical CPUs and to pay only for the licenses in use. This model eliminates the decades-old need for organizations to purchase excess software in anticipation of peak loads, incurring significant costs and allowing software licenses to sit dormant outside of peak periods. The model closely aligns with cloud computing deployments that directly link the cost of software to use, consumption and the value delivered to the organization. vfabric Includes Unique Licensing and Pricing Model Figure 4: The vfabric licensing and pricing model enables enterprises to purchase application infrastructure software based on virtual machines and to pay only for the licenses in use. 8
11 vfabric Enables Deployment Flexibility and Speeds Time to Market The VMware vfabric licensing model is per VM (virtual machine), and is based on average VM usage during a twelve month period rather than the high water-mark, allowing an option for bursting during peak periods. 13 InfoQ June 14, 2011 Figure 5: Only VMware allows vfabric license reuse across different types of servers in support of enterprises that need to reconfigure their application infrastructure. Today s applications are increasingly deployed to pools of virtual infrastructure not physical machines making the legacy approach of licensing application infrastructure based on physical CPUs decreasingly relevant. On virtualized infrastructure, an application may be running on a server with four CPUs at 9 a.m., but when employees log on during their lunch hour at noon, the application will be automatically moved to a server with 16 CPUs. With vfabric virtual machine-based licensing, enterprises simply license the number of virtual machines to run vfabric components, as needed. Additionally, licensing is based on average use, rather than peak, which allows for predicted and unpredicted usage spikes without requiring enterprises to license based on the high-water mark of an application workload. For example, if an enterprise licenses 10 vfabric virtual machines, it can burst to use significantly more virtual machines than 10 as long as over a 12-month period, the average usage is 10 or fewer virtual machines. Only VMware allows vfabric license reuse across different types of servers to support application infrastructure reconfiguration often resulting from time-to-market pressures that require releasing applications early and often. 9
