NSX-T and NSX-V Design Guide and Use Cases

Hello,

NSX-V 6.3 and NSX-T 1.1 is released about the same time, so there are new features around Microsegmentation, Application Continuity and Automation.  The Design Guide for NSX 3.0 is for NSX Vsphere. Is there a similar guide for NSX-T also? In comparasion when can NSX-T may be more suitable, and when can NSX-V be appropriate for use cases?  Is the licensing model the same for both products?

Some Points to note may be:

  • NSX-T supports multiple Hyperviors, so it may be more appropriate for Hybrid Hypervisor Environments. What may be the thread offs if NSX-T is used for Vsphere, wrt Performance, Automation, Application Continuity, Network Services as Load Balancing, VPN, NAT?
  • If containers as Photon or Docker, CoreOS, Kubernetes is used, or planned to be used in the future, if NSX-V or NSX-T more appropriate for Integration with these type of environments?
  • Manageability, Orchestration and Automation for Cloud, Vmware Amazon Cloud, Openstack and Hybrid, Private Cloud design and architecture what may be the pros and cons comparing these environments?
