A step–by–step guide to calculating chargeback rates for memory, CPU, and storage. Chargeback Calculator included in the download.

Case Studies

Peer 1 Hosting: As the number of VMs in their virtual environment grew, PEER 1 found it increasingly difficult to map costs accurately and assess capacity across the infrastructure. The team knew that they needed sophisticated analytical capabilities to manage the multi-data center environment more efficiently and effectively. VKernel's vOPS™ installed quickly and easily, providing the comprehensive visibility into the environment that PEER 1 required.

Safelite AutoGlass: The vOPS™ Reporting & Chargeback virtual appliance empowers the technical staff with usage data that is useful in resource management, capacity planning, and other analysis for the VMware Virtual Infrastructure 3 implementation.

Thermo Fisher Scientific: vOPS™ Capacity Manager quickly found capacity bottlenecks in their large infrastructure while vOPS™ Optimizer allowed for “right-sizing” of VMs so that the data center could appropriately use resources. Then vOPS™ Reporting & Chargeback drastically reduced time and overhead of managing the virtual infrastructure.

The Netherlands Government: With vOPS™ Capacity Manager, a Netherland government agency gained immediate value, with insight on VM capacity and performance that VMware's vCenter management console could not provide. Capacity Manager also provided vision for future resource planning while vOPS™ Optimizer helped "right size" resources such as CPU memory use with specific recommendations. Finally, vOPS™ Reporting & Chargeback will help address a policy requiring departments being billed based on their use of IT resources.
