Deliver a Unified Infrastructure to Bridge the Gap between Private and Public Clouds
Businesses are increasingly being tasked with moving their infrastructure to the cloud to reap the benefits of faster provisioning, flexible architecture, reduced costs and many other business needs. However, this transition can seem fraught with difficulties.
VMware Cloud on AWS is the fastest path to hybrid cloud, delivering a unified infrastructure that bridges the gap between private and public clouds.
It is a jointly engineered solution that extends on-premises vSphere environments to a VMware SDDC running on Amazon EC2 elastic, bare-metal infrastructure.
VMware Cloud on AWS can be further enhanced by using add-on services such as:
- VMware Cloud Director service
- VMware Site Recovery
- VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery
- VMware NSX Advanced Firewall
- VMware Aria Automation
- VMware Aria Operations
- VMware Aria Operations for Logs
- VMware Aria Operations for Networks
- VMware Tanzu Standard
