The Future Belongs to the Fast, the Flexible and the Brave
In a world that is rapidly being reshaped by technology, the most successful business and IT leaders are acting bravely and decisively to create change rather than wait for change to happen. According to Gartner, “By 2015, at least 20 percent of all cloud services will be consumed via internal or external cloud service brokerages, rather than directly, up from less than 5 percent today.” The need for change may be a lot closer than we think, and the importance of using the correct road map is vital.
Recently VMware took its own brave step by announcing some exciting additions to its management portfolio. From managing the software-defined data center more effectively in the hybrid cloud to delivering a secure virtual workspace, we are staying ahead of the curve by expanding our software and cloud services portfolio. Our goal is to help partners innovate, compete and succeed, while offering a long-term road map for success.
Potential of Comprehensive Software-Defined Data Center Management
Cloud management is the important next step in a customer’s journey for expanding beyond a server virtualization practice and adopting the software-defined data center. These VMware management product updates bring all management products under a single family name: vRealize.
How vRealize Suite can grow your business:
- Increased margin with Advantage+ and Solution Rewards
- 2x the opportunity with new support for non-vSphere environments; you can seize opportunities that you previously couldn’t
- Provides cross-sell opportunity for vCloud Suite and vCloud Air
