VMware Cloud Delivers Flexibility to Support any Cloud
Journey
VMware Cloud combines VMware Cloud Foundation Software and
VMware Cloud Services. Cloud Foundation combines the best
innovations from VMware’s on-premises and public cloud software
offerings into a unified stack to deliver a consistent environment
across any on-premises, hyperscaler cloud, or partner cloud
environment. VMware Cloud services simplify the deployment and
operations of VMware Cloud Foundation environments across any cloud
or on-premises environment. Customers can take advantage of VMware
Cloud services to run enterprise workloads more securely at scale
with advanced data protection, cloud-based disaster and ransomware
recovery and multi-cloud networking and security. Advanced
developer services, built-in Kubernetes, and optimized access to
hundreds of native cloud services across leading hyperscalers
deliver a pragmatic approach to app modernization.
VMware Cloud is available in five prescriptive VMware Cloud
editions (Essentials, Standard, Pro, Advanced, Enterprise) that
help customers flexibly modernize infrastructure and management at
every stage of their cloud transformation journey. Customers can
deploy and manage their VMware Cloud environments in three
ways:
- Customer Managed –VMware Cloud
editions can be deployed by customers in their own data centers or
their choice of colocation partners with full control of the
infrastructure environment.
- VMware Managed – VMware Cloud on
AWS is a VMware-managed cloud service with fully integrated
hardware and software. VMware Cloud on Equinix Metal will be a
distributed cloud service that enables customers to purchase
software and hardware as a service separately for maximum
flexibility.
- Provider Managed – new VMware
Cross-Cloud managed services based on VMware Cloud editions from
partners such as IBM Cloud enable customers to lower total cost of
ownership (TCO) for on-premises environments, simplify operations,
reduce risk with observability, actionable insight, and performance
optimization, and accelerate cloud migrations.
“M&A is a major part of our growth strategy, and our
multi-cloud approach enables First Citizens Bank to integrate the
systems of banks we have acquired more quickly and easily with
lower risk,” said Kojo Inkumsah, director and senior vice
president, Infrastructure & Cloud, First Citizens Bank. “With
VMware Cloud, we have access to a consistent multi-cloud
infrastructure as a solution that supports our enterprise workloads
on prem today, with the flexibility to run different parts of our
business in hyperscale clouds of our choice in the future. This
will enable us to optimize our IT environment for both costs and
performance and become more resilient to outages and other business
disruptions.”
NSX+: New Multi-Cloud Networking, Security and Developer
Services for VMware Cloud
VMware is the data center SDN leader with 70% share in 20221,
and VMware NSX has been shown to deliver more than 60% OPEX savings
from service automation and reduced hardware administration and 66%
savings in day 0-2 operations2. Unveiled today, VMware NSX+ is a
new cloud-managed service offering of NSX for multi-cloud
environments (previously Project NorthStar) that advances core
networking and security capabilities for VMware Cloud. With a
single cloud operating model that delivers zero tickets, zero
custom security or load balancing hardware appliances, and Zero
Trust, VMware NSX+ normalizes networking and security across VMware
Cloud environments. NSX+ will deliver consistent network and
security operations, centralized security policy creation and
enforcement, comprehensive network and application visibility, and
defense in depth with network detection and response (NDR) as a
Service. NSX+ capabilities are delivered as SaaS, simplifying the
installation process, and are centrally managed from a single cloud
console.
VMware is also introducing NSX+ virtual private clouds (VPCs).
NSX+ VPCs provide full isolation of networking, security, and
services to multiple tenants on a shared VMware Cloud
infrastructure managed by a single global NSX interface. Developers
and application teams can select clouds that are optimal for their
applications, while benefiting from the self-service and agility of
NSX+ VPCs across clouds. Infrastructure teams can maintain
supervisory control, set operational guardrails on a per VPC basis,
and help ensure changes made within VPC environments have no impact
on other tenants. NSX+ VPCs also improve IT productivity, as the
infrastructure team can use a consistent operating model across
clouds.
“VMware Cloud is a cornerstone of our digital transformation,
providing us with a flexible and streamlined platform to manage and
automate our workload operations on premises today, with an eye
towards the cloud in the future,” said Rodney Barnhardt, Server
Administrator at Charlotte Pipe and Foundry. “VMware Cloud
Foundation facilitates easy and rapid deployment and lifecycle
management of our virtual infrastructure, which has been pivotal in
maintaining our agility in a fast-paced industry. VMware NSX has
fortified our security through micro-segmentation, reducing the
risk of lateral threat movements within our network.”
Boosting Storage Scale and Efficiency with Lower TCO in
VMware Cloud
Organizations are utilizing advanced analytics and AI workloads
to gain customer insights, optimize processes, and drive revenue
growth. These workloads require massive data sets that can grow
rapidly, so storage solutions must elastically scale out to
petabyte capacities while delivering high performance and
resiliency at low total cost of ownership (TCO). Today, VMware is
announcing even more scalable, efficient, and cost-effective
storage for VMware Cloud with VMware vSAN Max, a new offering
within the vSAN family that will deliver petabyte-scale
disaggregated storage. With this announcement, VMware’s storage
solutions will give customers unparalleled scaling flexibility
compared to traditional storage solutions, with the performance,
capacity, resiliency, and low TCO for the most demanding
applications today. vSAN Max will scale storage elastically and
independently from compute to maximize utilization, up to 8.6
petabytes of capacity and 3.6 million IOPS per cluster. It is
designed to withstand failures across sites, hosts, and even
discrete storage devices in a stretched cluster topology. Since it
is built on the vSAN Express Storage Architecture, vSAN Max is
designed to heal from a discrete device failure up to 92% faster3.
It can lower TCO up to 30% for mission-critical databases through
hardware and license consolidation4. The new vSAN Max offering is
expected to be available in 2HFY24, will be licensed separately
from existing vSAN editions, will be offered as a subscription, and
is planned to be licensed on a per tebibyte metric.
“VMware and Lenovo have long partnered to deliver turnkey HCI
solutions that accelerate time-to-value and support application and
infrastructure modernization in the enterprise and edge," said
Kamran Amini, Vice President and General Manager of Server, Storage
and Software Defined Solutions at Lenovo Infrastructure Solutions
Group. “We continue to be one of the fastest growing data
management providers in the world with differentiated technology
that empowers our customers’ intelligent transformation. Lenovo
ThinkAgile VX Appliances, with vSAN Express Storage Architecture
and vSAN Max, can address a broader set of use cases with the
performance, resiliency, scale, and reduced TCO required for
extremely latency sensitive databases and cloud-native
applications, enabling customers to migrate away from legacy
models.”
VMware Cloud Enables Faster Recovery from Ransomware
Attacks
Most ransomware attacks now employ fileless techniques that
cannot be detected by scanning idle backups, posing a major threat
to organizations. VMware Ransomware Recovery is an award-winning
VMware Cloud service available today designed to recover from
fileless attacks using behavioral analysis of powered-on VMs in
cloud-based isolated recovery environments (IREs). VMware
Ransomware Recovery has been shown to resolve unplanned downtime up
to 75% faster5. To further reduce customer downtime, VMware
Ransomware Recovery added concurrent multi-VM recovery operations
(available today) and will enable customers to run production
workloads in the cloud until forensics are completed and the
on-premises datacenter is fortified (expected availability Q3FY24).
Additionally, VMware unveiled a technology preview of cybersecure
storage that will integrate recovery workflows with native vSAN
snapshots for data transfer optimizations. VMware Ransomware
Recovery is also expanding VMware Cloud service support to include
protection of workloads in Google Cloud VMware Engine (available
today).
“Nobody likes to think they will get hit with a successful
ransomware attack, but VanEck’s systems need to be readily
available 24/7 to serve our financial services clients around the
world. That means we must have a recovery plan that puts ransomware
front and center,” said Alaa Elbanna, Global Director,
Infrastructure at VanEck. “Previously, recovery was complicated and
time consuming. We had to use 3-4 different products just to get
things back up and running. Now with VMware Ransomware Recovery,
everything is seamless and orchestrated. It took less than two days
to deploy and now we can quickly identify recovery point
candidates, test them in an isolated cloud-based environment that's
easily provisioned, and get back to business faster."
Enhancing Operational Efficiency of VMware Cloud
As part of this wave of key innovations being delivered by
VMware Cloud, VMware is announcing Early Availability of a new
cloud-based ESXi lifecycle management service in VMware vSphere+.
IT admins will be able to centrally manage upgrades across their
entire ESXi fleet in distributed multi-vCenter environments,
overcoming silos and completing in just a few operations what may
have previously required hundreds or even thousands of operations,
especially in larger environments. This will result in significant
time savings and simpler upgrade planning and deployments, making
it easier for customers to get on to the latest versions and enjoy
the benefits of powerful new capabilities of VMware Cloud.
Additional updates to vSphere in the upcoming release will also
include doubling GPU capacity per VM to support more complex AI/ML
workloads, enabling smarter load balancing to maximize performance
from GPU investments, and enhanced self-service tools to make
building and running modern apps even easier for DevOps engineers
and developers.
