Introduce the relationship between vSphere, ESXi, Vcenter and vSphere Client

What is vSphere?

VSphere is a complete set of products released by VMware and a set of server virtualization solutions launched by VMware, including VMware ESXi hypervisor,VMware vCenter Server and other products.

What is ESXi?

ESXi is a hypervisor (hypervisor), a virtual layer similar to Xen that virtualizes the hardware of X86 servers. You install other OS on ESXi just like you install OS on other hardware. Once ESXi is installed on an X86 server hardware, the underlying hardware is virtualized, which means that you can use the server to create, configure, multiple virtual machines and OS (both Linux and Windows)

What is vCenter Server?

A vCenter Server server is a tool for managing one or more ESXi servers.

What is vSphere Client?

VSphere Client controls the client program on the ESXi through its remote connection. VSphere Client can manage only one host of ESXi at a time, while vCenter Server can manage multiple ESXi servers at the same time.
