Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
The platform can pool together up to 32 physical servers supporting 32 TB or RAM, 16 petabytes of storage, and 8,000 network ports. The result is what VMware calls "the mainframe of the 21st century."
vSphere 4 controls that modern mainframe through tools like Host Profiles, vNetwork Distributed Switches, and VMware Fault Tolerance.
These management tools are estimated to save 25 weeks worth of system administrator time over 100 virtualized hosts.
VMware expects vSphere 4 to be available by the end of the second quarter of this year.
It will be offered in six editions. Small-office environments can choose between Essentials, US$995 for three physical servers; or Essentials Plus, $2,995 for three physical servers with added data protection and availability capabilities.
Larger organizations can choose from Standard, at $795 per processor; Advanced, $2,245 per processor; Enterprise, at $2,875; and Enterprise Plus, at $3,495.
