VMware ESXi 8.0.1

VMware ESXi, formerly known as VMware ESX, is a class 1 virtualization and virtualization software developed by VMware, Inc. It is part of the VMware vSphere suite and is designed to create and manage virtual machines (VMs) on physical servers. With direct access and control of underlying resources, VMware ESXi efficiently partitions hardware to consolidate applications and cut costs. It is the industry leader in efficient architecture, setting the standard for reliability, performance, and support.

VMware ESXi allows you to:

• Consolidate hardware for higher capacity usage.
• Increasing performance for a competitive advantage.
• Simplify IT governance through centralized management.
• Decrease CapEx and OpEx.
• Minimizes the hardware resources needed to run the hypervisor, which means more efficiency.

Features of VMware ESXi

• By consolidating multiple servers into fewer physical devices, ESXi reduces space, power, and IT administration requirements while promoting high-speed performance.
• With a footprint of just 150MB, ESXi lets you do more for less while minimizing security threats to your hypervisor.
• Get support for a broad ecosystem of hardware OEMs, technology service partners, applications, and guest operating systems.
• Supports apps of all sizes. Configure virtual machines with up to 128 virtual CPUs, 6 TB of RAM, and 120 devices to meet all your application needs.
• Manage daily administrative operations with a built-in modern user interface based on HTML5 standards.
• Protect sensitive virtual machine data with strong encryption. Role-based access simplifies administration, and extensive logging and auditing ensures greater accountability and easier forensic analysis.
