This document illustrates by example the process of building a Virtual Data Center to support a simple web application. Let’s assume that this application does storage and retrieval of large media files; the required infrastructure is:

* A firewall appliance for connecting to the Internet
* A private network connecting the firewall to other systems
* A Linux web server running a LAMP stack
* A Solaris database machine running MySQL for application persistence
* A WebDAV server for the media files
