VMware vSOM (discontinued) vs. Windows Terminal

Vsphere Operation Management is suitable for automating the process of bringing up an alternate data center in case of a disaster. It also is a great way for testing your readiness of disaster. You have the ability to bring up a server in a "bubble" for testing. This way you can show your admins how the failover process will work.

Every person in Cybersecurity uses Linux and most are adapted to use VMWare or VirtualBox, however Terminal does everything I need it to do without needing those apps

• The best thing about VSOM is that it's built into VCenter so you only have one point of administration
• VSOM does a great job of making applications intuitive
• Re-IPing virtual machines are a must and VSOM does a great job of making this a simple process

Terminal's settings can be tweaked by a JSON file. This allows quick and instant changes, this program is light weight. The ability for it to add tabs for the different sessions and distributions you are working on is amazing.

vSphere with Operations Management has a much better way of automating the re-IPing of servers so you can stand them up in a different environment or location. You do, however, need another way of replicating your servers to your DR site, VSOM will not do that. We used EMC Recover Point for replication.

You can add distributions on Terminal like Ubuntu and kali-linux to achieve the same things you would install kali linux on a virtual machine platform like vmware or virtualbox. Terminal is light weight and easy to use
