Proven Savings with Memory Tiering in VCF 9

Memory Tiering considerations for expanding the VCF 9 lab

Memory Tiering considerations arise as my VCF 9 lab grows and workloads become more diverse. Additionally, I need more resources to support the expanding workload across tests and simulations. I have not yet run vDefend or AVI. This limits automation and testing progress today.

Currently, VCF services run with high availability even in my small lab. Additionally, the investment that I did is paying out.

VCF 9 supports memory tiering.

Moreover, this is great because of memory prices.

Buying memory is not fun anymore.

The modules that i want are not even produced anymore.

Memory tiering through NVMe drives is 2/3 cheaper. Additionally, it is cheaper than buying memory that is no longer produced.

It works great. Additionally, I still have some testing to do with Windows VM’s.

Memory Tiering timing

Additionally, Memory Tiering works over time, not directly.
