Create standardized tiers of infrastructure called Provider VDCs: Drive cost down by pooling your compute, storage and network resources and creating tiers of shared infrastructure (e.g. Gold, Silver, Bronze) with specific SLAs and cost.

IT infrastructure catalog: Drive cost down and increase automation by building standardized catalogs of vApps (infrastructure and Apps) and media files. Manage catalogs centrally and simplify troubleshooting, patching and change management.

Role-based access control: Control what infrastructure services and applications users can access, how much they can access and for how long with role-based access control.

Self-provision vApps from catalog: Increase agility and time to market by empowering users to self-provision vApps (infrastructure and applications) with the click of a button by browsing a catalog and selecting vApps to deploy.

vApp Network diagram: Allow users to connect vApps to multiple networks which may be internal or external to the organization. Empower users to create isolated Layer 2 vApp networks on the fly which isolate network traffic to VMs in the vApp.
