New Release of VMware vSphere Data ProtectionTM Advanced Increases Leading Backup Capabilities for VMware vSphere
BARCELONA, Spain, Oct. 15, 2013 At VMworld 2013 Europe, VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW), the global leader in virtualization and cloud infrastructure, today announced new capabilities and enhancements across its portfolio of cloud management solutions to simplify and automate management of IT services for multiple clouds and platforms. New product releases introduced today include VMware vCloud Automation Center TM6.0, VMware vCenter TMOperations Management Suite TM5.8, VMware IT Business Management Suite TM, and VMware vCenter TMLog Insight TM1.5. In addition, VMware will update the automation and management capabilities of VMware vCloud Suite 5.5, recently introduced on August 26, 2013.
For IT to keep pace with business demands, stay relevant and deliver IT services with agility, it must transition from being builders to brokers of IT services, said Ramin Sayar, senior vice president and general manager, Cloud Management, VMware. VMware cloud management solutions enable IT to deliver this agility while standardizing and ensuring governance and control whether the goal is to better manage a highly virtualized environment, build a vSphere-based private cloud, extend to the hybrid cloud or broker services across many providers.
As IT organizations evolve into brokers of IT services, they can rely on VMware cloud management solutions to enable key aspects of IT as a Service including:
On-demand access to any service: To help meet the expectations of immediate access to services, IT can increase agility and deliver infrastructure, application, desktop and custom services on diverse platforms and clouds with a common governance framework to simplify and control how services are consumed.
Cost transparency: By providing transparency into the cost of VMs, infrastructure services and the use of shared resources, IT can help end users make informed decisions about the cost of services across private and public clouds, increasing accountability and efficient use of resources.
Automated operations: Managing IT services today requires management solutions that are tightly integrated, leverage big data analytics and are purpose-built for the dynamic nature of the software-defined data center. This approach provides proactive management and unprecedented operational visibility of the performance and health of applications and underlying virtual and physical infrastructure, including storage and networking.
Multiple clouds and platforms: VMware cloud management solutions support heterogeneous hypervisor and physical environments and multiple clouds, providing customers increased automation, with a unified management approach and freedom of choice and flexibility.
Customers around the world rely on Orange Business Services' best-in-class communication, infrastructure and business critical application solutions to power their businesses, said Axel Haentjens, vice president, Marketing & International, Orange Cloud for Business. To drive greater value from its cloud, Orange Business Services uses VMware cloud management solutions to automate rapid service delivery as well as operations management, thereby increasing agility as well as resource utilization and efficiency.
VMware Cloud Management Boosts Automation, Heterogeneous Support and Financial Visibility
The new product capabilities across VMware's comprehensive management portfolio reinforce VMware's commitment to provide industry-leading solutions that are tightly integrated with VMware vSphere while offering customers freedom of choice to run services on diverse platforms and across a hybrid cloud. Today VMware introduced significant enhancements and a new offering across its cloud management product portfolio:
