Real-Time Virtual Infrastructure Right-Sizing

VMTurbo’s virtual appliances use patented analytics to automate real time, continuous virtual infrastructure right sizing and capacity management. VMTurbo provides the only virtualization management solution that combines monitoring (Observe), analytics (Advise) and actions (Automate), for proactive, rather than reactive virtual infrastructure rightsizing.

VMTurbo virtual infrastructure rightsizing solution features and benefits:

Dynamic, real time optimization recommendations Scale your virtual infrastructure management without adding manpower. Scale virtual infrastructure utilization and eliminate risk of underresourcing the most demanding production applications without over provisioning.
Realtime ‘What If’ Analysis Compute the impact of taking suggested actions like virtual machine right sizing, virtual machine migration, and shutdown of physical and virtual machines, leveraging up-to-the-minute data rather than point-in-time snapshots.
Deployed as a virtual appliance Install and see value in minutes.

How does it work?

VMTurbo’s patented technology manages the virtualized IT stack as a supply chain.

In a traditional supply chain, there are groups of buyers and sellers at each link of the chain, buying and selling commodities (resources). Over time, these transactions between buyers and sellers drive a market (equilibrium) price for each commodity.

Virtual machines sit at the top of the VMTurbo supply chain. Virtual machines have a budget (virtual money) to buy computing resources from the physical machines (i.e. hypervisors). Physical machines purchase datacenter resources like power, cooling, and floor space, and produce compute resources (CPU, memory, I/O bandwidth) to sell to the virtual machines.

Just as in a traditional supply chain, VMTurbo’s patented algorithms trend towards an equilibrium. This equilibrium balances the supply of datacenter resources with the demand from the business. To reach this equilibrium, VMTurbo’s virtual appliance recommends a series of virtual machine reconfigurations (rightsizing), migrations, suspend/resume operations as well as storage consolidations and physical machine power on/power off. These operations can then be performed by the administrator, or completely automatically.

VMTurbo virtual appliances provide recommendations that continuously adjust to dynamic virtual infrastructure conditions, always ensuring the most efficient and ROI-maximizing configuration and placement of virtual machines across the enterprise.
