What is vSphere?
VMware vCenter Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) vSphere vs. Hyper-V
What is Virtualization ? Virtualization is a proven software technology that is rapidly transforming the IT landscape and fundamentally changing the way that people compute, such as an operating system, a server, a storage device or network resources.
What is Hypervisor layer ? A hypervisor, also known as a virtual machine manager/monitor (VMM), is computer hardware platform virtualization software that allows several operating systems to share a single hardware host. Each operating system appears to have the hosts processor, memory, and resources to itself. Instead, the hypervisor is controlling the host processor and resources.
Hypervisor Classifications
Bare Metal/Native Hypervisors: Software systems that run directly on the hosts software as a hardware control and guest operating system monitor. A guest operating system thus runs on another level above the hypervisor. This is the classic implementation of virtual machine architectures.
Embedded/Host Hypervisors: Software applications that run within a conventional operating system environment. Considering the hypervisor layer being a distinct software layer, guest operating systems thus run at the third level above the hardware

VMware ESX
is a standard Linux environment through which a user has privileged access to the VMware ESX kernel.
VMware ESXi
is designed to make the server a computing appliance. Accordingly, VMware ESXi behaves more like firmware than traditional software.

Infrastructure services
These are components that comprehensively virtualize server, storage and network resources, aggregate them and allocate them precisely on demand to applications based on business priority.
Application services
These are components that provide built in service level controls to all applications running on the Cloud OS platform, regardless of application type or operating system.
VMware vCenter
VMware vCenter Server provides a scalable and extensible platform that forms the foundation for virtualization management. VMware vCenter Server, formerly VMware VirtualCenter, centrally manages VMware vSphere environments allowing IT administrators dramatically improved control over the virtual environment compared to other management platforms. VMware vCenter Server:
Provides centralized control and visibility at every level of virtual infrastructure Unlocks the power of vSphere through proactive management Is a scalable and extensible management platform with a broad partner ecosystem
Hardware Requirements:
Processor - 2.0GHz or higher Intel or AMD x86 processor. Processor requirements can be larger if your database is run on the same hardware. Memory - 2GB RAM minimum. RAM requirements can be larger if your database is run on the same hardware. Networking - 10/100 Ethernet adapter minimum (Gigabit recommended). Scalability - A VirtualCenter Server configured with the hardware minimums can support 20 concurrent clients, 50 ESX Server hosts, and over 1000 virtual machines. A dual-processor VirtualCenter Server with 3GB RAM can scale to 50 concurrent client connections, 100 ESX Server hosts, and over 1500 virtual machines.
