The VMware Cloud Foundation Performance team at Broadcom has updated its popular technical paper about effective strategies for performance tuning vSphere for virtualizing latency-sensitive workloads. In this revised guide, we share best practices and show you how to configure your vSphere platform to best support applications that require high network throughput, such as media and entertainment streaming workloads, financial services market data processing, and real-time automation control systems.
Some tunings you can make include:
- Changing several BIOS settings on the physical server that hosts vSphere
- Rightsizing virtual machines for the host hardware and setting the correct vTopology
- Adjusting vSphere advanced settings
