Hello experts,
Need your quick help for below solution:
I would like to establish a new solution to my existing data centers. The solution should house geo redundant cluster in active-active configuration. At the primary site, the cluster contains 30
servers with 4CPU / 16C / 32T.
The cluster will only contain systems / applications that should be available internally via my own IP network.
All servers will use Vmware as a hypervisor with vMotion enabled and Windows server 2016 Data center.
In the cluster, the following software will be available:
- Vmware
- ESXi
- vCenter
- Windows server 2016 DC
- SQL server
- Sharepoint 2016
- Exchange 2013
- Veeam Availability Suite Enterprise
The environment should contain 50 virtual servers, including 10 SQL servers, 20 Sharepoint servers, 5 Exchange servers, 1 AD, 1 vCenter and 1 Veeam.
All servers must allow administrator access via RDS.
Query:
- How do I best license this data center (Agreements and Products)?
- What licenses are needed?
- Is there anything I should think about?
- There are changes in the design of clusters that may allow me to be lower licensing cost for the solution without major impact on performance?
Regards
