The difference between VMware vSphere and ESXI:

The first product of Vmware server virtualization is called ESX. Later, when Vmware released version 4, the biggest technical difference between the ESXI,ESXI and ESX versions was the kernel change.

Since version 4, VMware called ESX and ESXi products vSphere, but VMware canceled the original ESX version from version 5, so now vSphere is ESXI, just two names. Generally speaking, vSphere is the main name in official documents.

VMware vSphere

1. Introduction:

VMware vSphere is the industry's leading and most reliable virtualization platform. VSphere simplifies IT operations by separating the application and the operating system from the underlying hardware. Your existing applications can see proprietary resources, while your server can be managed as a pool of resources. As a result, your business will run in a simplified but highly resilient IT environment.

The VMware, vSphere, Essentials, and Essentials Plus suites are designed for IT environments with fewer than 20 servers, providing enterprise-class IT management for small businesses with cost-effective server consolidation and business continuity with little investment. Using vSphere Essentials Plus in conjunction with vSphere Storage Appliance software, business continuity can be achieved without sharing storage hardware.

2. Core components

The installation file of VMware ESXi 5.0.0 can be downloaded directly from VMware's official website (a valid mailbox is required for registration). The downloaded file is a VMware-VMvisor- Installer-5.0.0-469512.x86_64.iso file, which can be recorded on CD or mass-produced to a U disk. Because ESXi itself is an operating system (Linux kernel), it should be used to boot the system during initial installation.

3. Main advantages

(1) ensure business continuity and always available IT.

(2) reduce IT hardware and operating costs.

(3) improve the quality of the application.

(4) enhance the security and data protection ability.
