Minimum 1 Gbps for hybrid configurations and 10 Gbps for All-flash.Therefore, each ESXi host needs to have a dedicated vSAN network, properly configured, with the following prerequisites: Due to distributed nature of vSAN, consisting of many local disks, it is necessary to make the connection between them quick and reliable. The number of nodes, as well as their specifications (CPU, RAM, disk capacity, etc.), is determined by multiple factors:įor vSAN implementation, the proper network infrastructure is the crucial component. The minimum vSAN cluster consists of three nodes. Since end-user experience is critical for VDI, performance is guaranteed by using SSD drives only. It also lowers capital and operational expenses because infrastructure is based on standard servers and their disks, so a separate storage system is not required.

It offers excellent flexibility and reliability combined with easy implementation and maintenance. The hardware base consists of standard industrial rack-mounted servers capable of supporting vSAN storage virtualization (vSAN Ready Nodes). Software – VMware vSphere/vSAN environment combined with VMware Horizon 7 platform for centralized VDI management.Hardware – hyperconverged infrastructure consisting of vSAN Ready All-flash rack-mounted servers.Desktop virtualization is one of the most effective ways for end-user environment optimization and control.
