VMworld Europe has a lot of exciting products to see and learn, VMware has extended their support by bringing in more offering than ever before, similar to VMware cloud on AWS, under the same concept of hardware or datacenter as a a service VMware had a project running called Project Dimension, which extends VMware Cloud to deliver the SDDC infrastructure and hardware as-a-service to customers’ on-premises locations.
This means end users or customers can focus on their business by building innovative applications rather than spending time on day-to-day infrastructure management.
This is the new offering from VMware called VMware Cloud on Dell EMC. using Dell EMC hardware vXRack SDDC solutions.
Check out this video by me explaining VMware Cloud on Dell EMC.
VMware Cloud on Dell EMC is actually Data Center As a Service which bring best of both world public cloud in private datacenter.
I think this is a great offering from VMware where you have restrictions from putting the data on public cloud partners or customers can use this.
This is similar to VMware on AWS, however in this instance it’s hosted on a private data centre.
Currently this offering is only available in The USA with an aim to roll out to Europe in the next year.
The benefits we get by using this VMware offering is we get the full solution managed and maintained by VMware support with 365/24 hours with 4 hours response time. VMware takes care of operating the infrastructure: deploying it., troubleshooting issues; and performing patching, upgrading and maintenance. This frees you and your experts to work on what matters the most and focus on your product.
This runs on vXRail hardware with full SDDC solution, however in this instance VMware keeps the access for the VMware Cloud Foundation and give the customer a different portal to manage and run the environment.
What we have in this HCI solution is full SDDC stack running on vSphere hypervisor and vSAN, with the cutting edge security offered by NSX-T.
This gives us more time to focus on something else other than just managing and maintaining the VMware infrastructure.
Other benefits include:
Increase agility
simplified operation
Accelerated Innovation
Mitigated Risk
Controlled cost
Increased performance.
