Hello there,<br />
<br />
I would like to know how DRS works for SQL server licensing in VMware? Should we need to have an isolated/dedicated Datastore where only SQL VM's need to be hosted or &nbsp;can it be exposed to other vms.<br />
<br />
I need a link explaining the above?<br />

Please advise.<br />

VMware, a software company founded in 1998,  was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies.

VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture.  Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
