Cloud Director Architecture

In a Cloud, a VMware Cloud Director cluster is linked with one or more vCenter servers and vShield Manager

servers, and an arbitrary number of ESX/ESXi hosts. The Cloud Director cluster and its database manage access

to vCenter resources by Cloud clients.

Figure 1-1 is a schematic representation of a simple Cloud. The diagram shows a Cloud Director cluster

comprising four server hosts. Each host runs a group of services called a Cloud Director cell. All hosts in the

cluster share a single database. The entire cluster is connected to three vCenter servers and the ESX/ESXi hosts

that they manage. Each vCenter server is connected to a vShield Manager host, which provides network

services to the Cloud.
