Note: Viptela Total 30 vEdge will be supported for FM and PM. For velocloud Total 6.5 K vEdge for both FM and PM. 1 VCO maximum upto 5 K vEdges supported in VMware Telco Cloud Operations.

Number of concurrent users supported is 10.

Rate of processing of notification on Non-HA 32 notification per second and on HA setup 22 notifications per second.

M&R GW pipeline can support 10 million metrics (when load from Smarts Metrics Gateway 20 million metrics).

M&R GW pipeline can support 13 million metrics (no load from Smarts Metrics Gateway).

Sizing Guideline for VMware Extra Small Footprint with ESM for Various VelcoCloud VCO Sizes

Number of vEdges for XS Discovery Collector (CPU, RAM) Monitoring Collector (CPU, RAM) PM Collector (CPU, RAM) ESM
1 VCO with 100 vEdges (1 vCPU, 0.44 GB) (0.15 vCPU, 0.36 GB)  (0.1 vCPU, 0.38 GB) 2 vCPU, 0.5 GB
1 VCO with 1.5k vEdges  (1 vCPU, 0.82 GB)  (0.3 vCPU, 0.43 GB)  (0.4 vCPU, 0.66 GB) 2 vCPU, 1.5 GB
1 VCO with 5k vEdges  (1 vCPU,  1.1 GB)  (1 vCPU, 0.58 GB)  (0.55 vCPU, 0.73 GB) 4 vCPU, 2.5 GB
