Overview

VMware ESXi is the easiest way to get started with virtualization—and it’s free. Consolidate your applications onto fewer servers and start saving money through reduced hardware, power, cooling and administration costs. VMware ESXi has been optimized and tested to run even your most resource intensive applications and databases with minimal performance overhead.

Deploy a mature hypervisor technology that runs in tens of thousands of customer environments. Most hypervisors in the market today rely on a built-in operating system to perform core virtualization tasks such as allocating hardware resources to the various virtual machines that run on top. This means that your virtual machines are only as reliable as the built-in operating system. VMware ESXi has an ultra thin design with no reliance on a general purpose operating system. This architecture allows you to avoid the security hardening, user access control, anti-virus tasks and patching associated with a typical operating system. Its ultra thin code base installs directly on the server hardware for the ultimate reliability.
