How Do Lunavi VMware Cloud Services Work?

VMware Cloud services from Lunavi provide you with VMware virtual servers that can give you the same application performance and user experience you have in existing on-premise server infrastructure. You access your Virtual Data Center (VDC) over the public internet or through VPN and manage it through an online portal. 

Our VMware Cloud is available Self-Service or Fully Managed, with public IaaS, hybrid cloud, or completely private deployment options. You can also add à la carte managed services to your cloud. All hosted VMware solutions are delivered with vCloud Director, complimentary monitoring tools, advanced firewalls, load balancing, and access to 24/7/365 customer support.

If you are one of many organizations that is already virtualized with VMware, you are one step closer to moving to a hosted cloud environment. 

Compute Resources

Each virtual machine in the public IaaS environment is assigned virtual CPUs and RAM that are delivered dynamically from a pool of available physical server resources. On-demand scalable infrastructure allows you to add resources on the fly without downtime, with practically zero resource limits.

Cloud storage for virtual machines is tied to a datastore, which is hosted on our cloud storage platform. Lunavi cloud storage is available in a variety of performance configurations. Your VDC can also be tied to file or object storage for specific applications. You can expand your storage as needed without downtime.

Software Compatibility & Support

VDCs typically host a Guest Operating System or third-party applications. Lunavi can pre-install your guest OS when requested and offers a variety of template machines ready to go. You are not required to use our licensing, but you'll want to ensure your OS is compatible with VMware. Compatible Guest Operating systems include every major vendor and open source provider, from Apple and Microsoft to Debian and CentOS.

Template VMs include Windows, Linux, and CentOS. These options are fully supported by our Global Service center. Lunavi can also provide licensing for the following applications, among others:

  • Microsoft 365
  • Microsoft Exchange
  • Microsoft SQL Server
  • Windows Remote Desktop Services

Self-Administration

Control your cloud without a middleman. Visibility and monitoring tools alongside vCloud Director enable your administration of VDC resources including:

  • Firewall configuration
  • VPN tunneling
  • Power cycling of virtual machines
  • Add, remove, or modify virtual compute resources
  • Create, delete, or revert to VM snapshots
  • Add, move, or delete VMs
  • Design VM templates and access them via catalog

vCloud API

APIs in vCloud Director are extensible platforms which allow users programmatic access to provisioning and management controls. Developers can write applications to manage virtualized resources in-house and then bridge to Lunavi cloud infrastructure. The API supports both upload and download, customization, and deployment of VM instances. 

In addition, the API provides support for developer-built clients using the representational state transfer application development style (RESTful). The API clients and vCloud Director servers communicate over HTTP.

Using the vCloud API, user input influences creative cloud management solutions. Examples of how Lunavi customers use the vCloud API:

  • Program virtual machines to turn off and on automatically depending on user need, saving expense and energy
  • Write an API to turn on servers for scheduled backups
  • Handle traffic spikes by turning on a new server when a predefined capacity is met
The hybrid that Green House Data provided was a great balance. We were able to keep the project cost-neutral and still upgrade just about everything in the process.
