Performance Unplugged: vCenter Performance

Welcome to a new video series I’ve titled “Performance Unplugged”

In this video series, I’ll showcase a number of talented performance gurus and cover commonly asked questions and topics. Performance of the Software-Defined Datacenter should no longer be a concern for customers and we’ll explain why. Links to the latest information pertaining to the topic will also be provided.

Episode 2

Today, I’d like to introduce Ravi Soundararajan (@vCenterPerfGuy). Ravi talks about vCenter performance and offers some simple tips to improve performance.

Below are some resources that document vCenter performance:

• VMware vCenter Server 5.1 Database Performance Improvements and Best Practices for Large-Scale Environments
• Installing vCenter Server 5.5 best practices
