vCloud Infrastructure Pricing in VSPP 3.0
Introducing a new pay-for-use model
• Based on new metric: virtual RAM allocated to VMs
• Two tiers of service designed to enable cloud providers to deliver a
competitive enterprise cloud service
• Risk-sharing model: SPs are billed monthly based on virtual RAM
metric, so license costs are proportional to SP revenue
Key benefits
• Delivers key components to enable a cloud service – vSphere,
vCloud Director, Chargeback, vCenter Server, Production SnS
• Opex model
• Lower HW capex from vSphere performance
• Linear model vs. flat per-VM pricing in current VSPP – aligns to how
many providers deliver service
How Virtual RAM Usage is Reported
•Service Provider installs Usage
Metering Software VM on their
vCenter server
•Software collects total allocated
virtual RAM hourly and automatically
sends it to Aggregator every month
•Aggregator generates report from
data to bill Service Provider and
submit to VMware for audit
Process flow:

Conformity Process
The VSPP Program Office is pleased to announce the VSPP
Conformity Process (Previously internally known as VSPP
Compliance Process). This is a limited time (till 31st of March 2011)
initiative which allows existing Service Providers who purchased
under perpetual licenses to take advantage of the VSPP.
 In general, the Conformity Process will allow a Service Provider to:
 Consume additional licenses (via the VSPP Rental Agreement
ONLY!!)
 Be compliant on existing licenses through VSPP EULA Amendment
Extension, but can’t buy anymore!
 Have access to future vCloud Products
 Be included in VMware Service Provider Program for all program
benefits
Hosting EULA Amendment
VMware End User license Agreements do not allow for products to be
used in hosting environments
VSPP contracts from aggregators amend the VMware EULAs
for products subscribed to by Service Providers to allow
hosting
Sign contract once, No additional EULA changes are required
as new products are available through the subscription model
Marketing VSPP
There are 2 ways to do marketing with VMware
1) The SP sets up an event where they invite VMware and maybe
other vendors. VMware can deliver a speaker and some budget. So
the SP is in the lead and must organize/invite find a location
themselves. Example can be a Datacenter tour combined with a
presentation of the VMware products the SP is using in their
proposition to the market.
2) VMware will set up an event and will ask the SP to participate as a
sponsor. VMware will set up the event and will be in the lead of the
organization/location/invitation, etc. Examples are vForum, SMB
campaign, VMworld, etc.
