Its parallel job execution and dynamic resource management capabilities enable users to scale with confidence.
- VKernel’s vOps Server Standard Edition simplifies capacity planning by allowing users to visualize multiple capacity issues at a glance; calculate remaining available VM slots; forecast future resource requirements and reserve capacity for planned deployments; and predict future capacity bottlenecks.
- For resource optimization, VKernel’s technology also collects information directly from VMware’s vCenter and analyzes thousands of data points across the entire virtual environment. This allows users to quickly and easily identify resource efficiency issues, make resource allocation recommendations, and safely, and automatically, resize virtual machines.
