Data Center Modernization with VMware Cloud on AWS

Sinopsis

Cloud technology is essential to powering the innovation that businesses need
to stay competitive. This is truer today than ever before. However, moving data and applications to the cloud is a significant decision for organizations to make. Therefore, businesses across the globe are looking at solutions that can meet their need for an enterprise-class, low risk platform, which provides a flexible portfolio of cloud-based service options.
When a business decides to move their infrastructure and critical applications to the cloud, a solution is needed that minimizes risk and provides flexibility, access to transformational services, and cloud-based economics. Organizations that are already employing VMware technology in their IT infrastructure are well-positioned for data center modernization through the simple approaches described in this book: leveraging the Amazon Web Services (AWS) global infrastructure for a hybrid service offered through the unique combination of AWS and VMware compatible solutions.
A key business outcome of VMware Cloud on AWS is the ability to transform IT teams from being reactive to being proactive and agile organizations that can respond to changing business needs. In addition, VMware Cloud on AWS allows IT leadership to clearly allocate costs to lines of business, to manage consumption upfront, and to reduce operational support for tasks such as infrastructure patching, ultimately pushing down total cost of ownership
(TCO) and business risk.
A VMware Cloud on AWS hybrid environment supports a variety of compelling use cases for businesses. These include, but are not limited to, geographical expansion into new regions, disaster recovery, lift-and-shift application migration, data center consolidation, new application development, partial application rearchitecture, and burst capacity—all with an operational consistency and simple workload portability. Each use case, or the combination of multiple use cases, provides businesses with a cloud strategy that can drive cloud adoption alongside their on-premises infrastructure. This adoption can occur while gaining the flexibility of elastic capacity tailored to the unique needs of their organization.
