V-Kernel Capacity and Chargeback Virtual Appliance

The World´s first Virtual Appliance for Capacity and Chargeback Reporting

You are 20 minutes away from:

- Finding out how much Storage, CPU, Memory and Network each VM is consuming.

- Understanding total resource consumption by groups of VMs that support business applications such EMAIL, CRM, and others.

- Generating Chargeback reports that are based on actual consumption of resources in your environment

It does not require installation or extensive configuration. Simply drop this appliance into one of you ESX servers and specify which ESX servers you want to report on. That´s it! Free Download available

In this shared environment it is tough to figure out what departments and applications are using the shared resources (CPU, Memory, Storage, Network). It is even tougher to figure out how to chargeback for them to various internal departments and external clients. Vkernel makes this easy

See sample reports at http://www.vkernel.com/reports.htm

Click and out come reports that show how much resource (CPU, Storage, RAM, and network) your VMs are consuming. A few more clicks and now you can understand resource consumption by critical business application such as email, CRM and other systems
Once you associate clients with business applications by drag and drop operations you can get charge back reports that are based on actual resource consumption, not some artificially created chargeback scheme.
It is that easy. Download and try V-kernel beta today from www.vkernel.com
