3.4.2.1. Assumptions
The same provider virtual datacenter
is backing the various allocation models.
Storage is currently the same within the provider virtual datacenter.
The c
atalog of virtual machines
will vary in size.
An el
astic virtual datacenter
will be used,
if needed (assuming it can be
used).
To develop a menu of options for customers three levels of performance have been determined for each allocation model. These can be modified as customer needs change. Company1 defines performance categories as:
Low
Medium
High
This is not the same as how virtual machine templates are defined (Small, Medium, and Large). The goal is to balance the machine configurations with the actual allocation model under which customers are running.
