Original Post: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Ntpronl/~3/YwFTOyPl5Og/1983-VMware-Labs-presents-its-latest-fling-vBenchmark.html

vBenchmark is a simple application that allows you to measure key datacenter operational and efficiency metrics. Simply connect to your vCenter Server hosts and the application provides a snapshot of these metrics for your entire virtualized environment. Have you ever wondered how to quantify the benefits of virtualization to your management? If so, please consider using vBenchmark. vBenchmark measures the performance of a VMware virtualized infrastructure across three categories:

- Efficiency: for example, how much physical RAM are you saving by using virtualization?

- Operational Agility: for example, how much time do you take on average to provision a VM?

- Quality of Service: for example, how much downtime do you avoid by using availability features?

vBenchmark provides a succinct set of metrics in these categories for your VMware virtualized private cloud. Additionally, if you choose to contribute your metrics to the community repository, vBenchmark also allows you to compare your metrics against those of comparable companies in your peer group. The data you submit is anonymized and encrypted for secure  transmission.
