Virtual Data Center (VDC) Project
The 2014 Virtual Data Center (VDC) The project involved creating and managing a virtualized computing environment that emulated the resources and functionalities of a physical data center.
The Virtual Data Center (VDC) is a pool of cloud infrastructure resources designed for enterprise use, typically encompassing compute, storage, and network resources. These resources are abstracted and delivered through virtualization technology, allowing for flexible and scalable deployment of applications and services.
Key Components of the VDC project. The Early Days - www.virtualdatacentre.co.za
- Compute: Virtualized servers or virtual machines (VMs) that provide processing power.
- Storage: Virtualized storage resources that offer flexible and scalable storage solutions.
- Networking: Virtual networks that provide connectivity between VMs and other resources.
- Management Software: Tools and platforms for managing, monitoring, and automating the VDC.
- Security: Measures to protect data and resources within the virtual environment.
