vCenter Orchestrator Primary Use Case
LS
LalitSharma
Solution Consultant at DXC
I'm a reseller of this solution.
I use vCenter if I need to do administration on a centralized layer when using multiple VMware ESX servers. I'm able to manage the VMware environment where all of the VMware machines and multiple ESX are hosted.
There are multiple versions of this solution available. We have more than 100,000 people in my organization. We have over 500 customers. If I look at the landscape, I have more than 300 customers, whose landscape in terms of number of servers is more than 10,000. For the virtualization, at least 60 or 70% is running on VMware.
I use the solution in my company as it is very useful in virtualizing every physical environment that our company has. In our company, we enhanced the resources, and with less costs, we could have a single point of governance. The tool was really helpful for our company's environment.

I have used this solution through all of the generations from 4.1, 5, 5.1, 5.5, 6, 6.5, and 6.7.
Our primary use case was for the deployment of a virtual machine with a specific naming convention. I have my own naming convention for applications such as Active Directory.
The deployment model depends on the environment. For VMware, I have only used it in private cloud deployments. In Asia, it is a public cloud using Microsoft Azure.

I use the solution in my company for the virtualization of all the virtual machines in our environment.
In our first program, we used the VCF to provide searches for our clients, then we opened our service to the public, so we changed from VCF to a VC and VCB program. We have an infrastructure software data center that we need to manage and handle all our clients' requests.
We use PCD and vCenter. On top of that, we provide the PCD as a service for our clients. We give them a portal to access the resources they request. The services include site recovery, policy updates, etc.
I used vCenter Orchestrator for our servers, such as database, Active Directory, and antivirus servers. Our internal servers have approximately five hosts and we are hosting approximately 19 servers on them.

We operate two critical data centers, Data Center A and Data Center H, in an active-active setup. These centers serve 300 remote sites, with all our applications and local servers sending data to both. We prioritize data security using protections like IPS, IDS, and XDR. Data distribution is handled by load balancers through DNSX in our virtual cloud, connecting to application servers. We also have Backup Data Centers ready to take over if A and H encounter issues, ensuring uninterrupted data services.
I primarily use vCenter Orchestrator to automate workflows.

We are a healthcare establishment. The main essence here is the 24X7X365 availability. This was possible due to virtualization. The best-suited candidate for the virtualization was VMware as the technical resources are easily available in the market. The Virtualization standards offered by VMware are defacto industry norms. This enabled us to have better resiliency and dynamic fail-over cluster for our application server and the databases. Using the virtualizes such as VMware, we achieved HPE SimpliVity Snapshot performance due to the capabilities of vCenter deployment.

We recently deployed a SAN in our office and the servers deploy on vCenter Orchestrator.
We also have a wireless deployment for different controllers, and we have many ERD solutions in our office that are hosted on VMware technology.
Many of our older, physical servers are being converted into VMs, and then we use vCenter Orchestrator with them as well.
