VMware vSAN Design and Sizing Guide 6.6
VMware® vSAN™ is a hyper-converged, software-defined storage (SDS) platform that is fully integrated with VMware vSphere®. vSAN aggregates locally attached disks of hosts that are members of a vSphere cluster, to create a distributed shared storage solution. vSAN enables the rapid provisioning of storage within VMware vCenter™ as part of virtual machine creation and deployment operations. vSAN is the first policy-driven storage product designed for vSphere environments that simplifies and streamlines storage provisioning and management. Using VM-level storage policies, vSAN automatically and dynamically matches requirements with underlying storage resources. With vSAN, many manual storage tasks are automated – delivering a more efficient and cost-effective operational model.
This Technical Design and Sizing Guide document focuses on helping administrators to correctly design and size a vSAN cluster, and answer some of the common questions around number of hosts, number of disk groups, cache sizing, and number of capacity devices along with detailed configuration questions to help to correctly and successfully deploy vSAN.
VMware vSAN Network Design 6.6
vSAN is a hypervisor-converged, software-defined storage solution for the software-defined data center. It is the first policy-driven storage product designed for VMware vSphere® environments that simplifies and streamlines storage provisioning and management. vSAN is a distributed, shared storage solution that enables the rapid provisioning of storage within VMware vCenter Server™ as part of virtual machine creation and deployment operations.
This Network Design Guide gives a technology overview of vSAN network requirements and provides vSAN network design and configuration best practices for deploying a highly available and scalable vSAN solution.
