But how do you know it is performing well? And what are some of the ways you can diagnose the root cause of issues when performance doesn&#8217;t seem to be what you expected. This session is for the vSAN administrator who is responsible for delivering applications and services powered by vSAN. Learn how common metrics can be used to determine the demands of individual workloads, and their impact on the vSAN powered environment they run in. Learn how to identify anomalies versus patterns of behavior that might warrant further investigation, and remediation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr. Sheldon Coopers Fun with vSAN [1241]<\/strong><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><span class=\"rf-speaker-name\">Aaron Dumbrow<\/span><span class=\"rf-speaker-title\">, VMware<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"rf-speaker-name\">Jase McCarty<\/span><span class=\"rf-speaker-title\">, Staff Technical Marketing Architect, VMware<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"rf-session-abstract\">\n<div class=\"rf-session-abstract\">\n<p>Storage costs account for 50% of capital budgets and 75% of the challenges in most modern healthcare environments. Taking into consideration the cost of storage networking, devices, and maintaining complex storage environments, not to mention the exponential growth and retention of these environments. Budgets are too high, systems too complex, and teams too siloed to sustain future healthcare IT needs. vSAN provides an Enterprise storage solution for Healthcare environments, eliminating unnecessary complexity, adding additional functionality, and opening the new dialog for storage and virtualization teams. Because it is built into the kernel of the hypervisor, vSAN can take advantage of additional performance gains, and simplified management.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Continuous Availability with vSAN [1482]<br \/>\n<\/strong><span class=\"rf-speaker-name\">Jase McCarty<\/span><span class=\"rf-speaker-title\">, Staff Technical Marketing Architect, VMware<br \/>\n<\/span><span class=\"rf-speaker-name\">Sumit Lahiri<\/span><span class=\"rf-speaker-title\">, VMware<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Understand the design implications and options for deploying vSAN across 2 sites.
