  • VMware vCenter Server: Managing ESXi hosts and virtual machines.
  • VMware vSphere Client: Access to vCenter Server via browser.

 

VMware ESXi (VMvisor)

VMware ESXi, also known as VMvisor, is a type 1 hypervisor that is installed directly on the physical hardware. Its uniqueness is that it acts like an operating system, eliminating the need for an additional system, which makes it extremely efficient. Its kernel, VMkernel, was created by VMware Inc., which further increases its efficiency.

VMware vCenter Server

VMware vCenter Server plays a key role in the vSphere environment, enabling centralized management of ESXi hosts and virtual machines. As a server, it monitors the entire virtualization infrastructure, not only starting and stopping virtual machines, but also monitoring performance, managing resources, and providing notifications and alarms. With vCenter Server, administrators can effectively control their environment from a single, consistent interface.

VMware vSphere Client

vSphere Client is a browser-based application that allows users to easily access vCenter Server features from any computer. Optimized for ease of use, the vSphere Client interface offers a full range of management features, making virtual machine administration and infrastructure monitoring more intuitive.
