VMware Products

 VMware products include virtualization, networking and security management tools, software-defined data center software, and storage software.

Data center and cloud infrastructure

VMware vSphere is VMware's suite of virtualization products. VMware vSphere, known as VMware Infrastructure before 2009, includes ESXi, vCenter Server, vSphere Client, vMotion, and more. As of April 2017, the latest version is vSphere 6.5, which is available in three editions: Standard, Enterprise, and Enterprise Plus vmware certified associate.

Networks and security

VMware NSX is a virtual security and networking software offering created when VMware acquired Nicera in 2012. NSX enables an administrator to virtualize network components, enabling them to develop, deploy, and configure virtual networks and switches using software rather than hardware. A software layer sits on top of the hypervisor to allow an administrator to divide a physical network into multiple virtual networks.

VMware vRealize Network Insight is a network operations management tool that enables an administrator to plan for micro-segmentation and verify the health of VMware NSX. VRealize Network Insight builds on technology from Arkin's acquisition of VMware in 2016. VRealize Network Insight collects information from the NSX Manager; it also displays errors in its user interface, which helps to troubleshoot in an NSX environment.
