38 servers to compensate for physical topology restrictions. ✓ Bulletproof security: Rather than being tied to IP addresses, network policies can be based on virtual containers, applications and Active Directory identities. Security policies are automatically attached to VMs as they're created, policies move with VMs and are deleted when VMs are deleted, all with no human intervention. ✓ Disaster-proof operation: A virtual network makes it easy to get a full-image backup of the 'application architecture' and have it available for push-button recovery – in minutes, on any replacement hardware, with no compromise in functionality. ✓ Lower cost: Network provisioning and configuration are automated. Administration, monitoring and troubleshooting are faster and easier. Network visibility and control spans both physical and virtual infrastructure. Hardware independence allows operators to build their physical infrastructure with the best price/performance solution from any vendor. How it works VMware NSX is based on a distributed system controller with traditional hypervisor and vSwitch. The entire virtual network is created in software, and is independent of the existing physical infrastructure, so NSX works with any application, hypervisor, network infrastructure or cloud service, and can be deployed on any IP network, including current or next-generation fabric architectures from any vendor.
