VCDX Conceptual Diagrams

For those people who follow me, they know that I failed the VCDX. Reasons are covered in this blog post for those that are interested.

Part of the VCDX design is the movement from Conceptual to Logical to Physical models.

I’m a firm believer in giving back to the VMware Community, so when Byron Schaller @byronshcaller put out this tweet, I was happy to help out

Looking for a couple solid examples of conceptual designs #VCDX

So with this in mind, I thought it would benefit the wider community to share the same Conceptual Diagrams on a blog post.

Hi, having a look at the vMSC, there is a small error here. L2 stretching is a requirement, so network has to be stretched as well.

  Thanks for reading Nicolas. Not an error L2 is stretched. Interesting point is this is how the ‘C Level’ understood the conceptual part of the solution.
