Taking these considerations into account, in the PT data center, we are running a mixed workload that reflects some of the needs your organization may have as it moves past the pandemic. The workload includes a multi-tier web app on Kubernetes, as well as virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) and online transactional databased (OLTP) components, running each simultaneously to simulate an organization using a single cluster of four servers to meet multiple needs. To understand the differences in performance you might expect between a newer solution and a solution you might be using today, we will use the same workload on two different VMware® vSphere™ clusters with VMware vSAN™:
When testing concludes, our report will feature the results of the tests—the number of VDI users, the orders per minute, and the number of web app users each cluster supported simultaneously—along with additional information on our test environment, workloads, and configurations.
