Vizioncore: vConverter “Direct to ESX Server” Demo

The recording below shows vConverter 3.0 performing a migration of a physical Web Server running Windows® Server 2003 SP1 server with a single 233GB volume, converting directly to a VMware ESX host.

The entire conversion takes exactly 4 minutes (video runs at 5x speed).

Fast, Easy and Reliable Conversion Projects

The elapsed time from start to finish for a conversion project includes setup time and actual conversion time. Vizioncore has researched and optimized both categories. vConverter setup is very straightforward and does not require installation of infrastructure components such as databases or web services. The vConverter application is a light standalone application that takes very little time to download and install.

Conversion Speed – The Single Most Critical Metric for Conversion Efforts

A significant R&D effort and focus on conversion efficiencies has resulted in the fine tuning of read/write/transfer algorithms and the creation of mechanism specifically for ESX as the target which results in impressive speed and reliability benchmarks.

Increased Throughput. Vizioncore's stream lined proprietary SFTP host agent results in extremely fast and secure data throughput.
Increased W rite Speed. vConverter includes Vizioncore's proprietary `Vzboost' VMware kernel level driver which speeds up all w rites to the VM FS to reduce bottlenecks.
Disk Geometry and Selective Conversion Algorithms. The creation and integration of a series of conversion techniques including advanced disk geometry and data pre allocation algorithms results in advanced intelligence and handling of the bits and bytes required for cloning.
