VMware Unveils Next-Generation Products and Services to Further Enable the Software-Defined Data Center VMware NSX Network Virtualization Platform to Deliver New Network Operational Model that Improves Agility and Advances Data Center Economics

VMware Virtual SAN Introduces New Approach to Storage, Delivering Simple, Self-Tuning Storage for Virtual Machines

New Versions of VMware vCloud Suite and VMware vSphere with Operations Management Increase Management and Automation Capabilities to Strengthen Foundation of a Software-Defined Data Center Architecture

VMware vSphere 5.5 Extends Support for Business-Critical Applications and New Workloads

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 26, 2013 Addressing the needs of organizations to simplify IT, VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW), the global leader in virtualization and cloud infrastructure, today at VMworld 2013 announced a wave of new products and services designed to help IT accelerate their adoption of a software-defined data center architecture and take advantage of the value of advanced virtualization in areas such as networking and security, storage and availability, and management and automation. The news was unveiled at the companys 10th annual VMworld in San Francisco, where more than 22,000 attendees saw first-hand details and demos of newly-introduced technology including VMware NSX, VMware Virtual SAN, VMware vCloud Suite 5.5 and VMware vSphere with Operations Management 5.5.

With todays news, VMware is further empowering IT to help organizations become more agile, responsive and profitable, said Raghu Raghuram, executive vice president, Cloud Infrastructure and Management, VMware. New products such as VMware nsx and VMware Virtual SAN will fundamentally redefine the hypervisor and its role in the data center. Along with the recently introduced VMware vCenter Log Insight, these products represent the next wave of innovation at VMware. We continue to evolve the software-defined data center architecture to address ITs critical needs - enabling them to build infrastructure that is radically simpler and more efficient while delivering the agility and flexibility to support the velocity of their businesses.

A year after introducing the software-defined data center architecture, VMwares pioneering IT framework has gained wide acceptance across global business giants and start-ups alike. In addition, customers that moved to a software-defined data center architecture have experienced greater value than those that did not. In a recent survey, for example, VMware found two-thirds of respondents reported being able to generate new revenue for their businesses when they expanded their use of virtualization1. Of those businesses able to take full advantage of a complete software-defined data center architecture, 85 percent were able to generate new revenue as high as 22 percent for their businesses.

The development of new software and services for the auto retail and the OEM auto manufacturing industry globally is key to ADP Dealer Services business, said Bill Naughton, CIO of ADP Dealer Services. The software-defined data center architecture enables us to deliver true Infrastructure-as-a-Service and Platform-as-a-Service to our lines of business and our development organization with the requisite performance, availability, and security all automated by software. With increased IT agility and efficiency, were poised to meet the present and future demands of the business.

Enabling the Future of the Data Center By extending the virtualization principles of abstraction, pooling and automation across all data center resources and services, the software-defined data center architecture can simplify and speed up the provisioning and management of compute, storage and networking resources through policy-driven automation. Today, VMware is announcing four products that enable customers to virtualize infrastructure and deliver it as a service; providing efficiency, agility and control for building and operating private, hybrid and public clouds:

VMware NSX The Platform for Network Virtualization Today, VMware launched VMware NSX, a network virtualization platform that will deliver the entire networking and security model in software, decoupled from networking hardware. By virtualizing the network, VMware NSX delivers a new operational model for networking that breaks through current physical network barriers and will enable data center operators to achieve significantly better speed and agility, while reducing costs.

Like server virtualization, VMwares approach to network virtualization enables data center operators to treat their physical network as a pool of transport capacity that can be consumed and repurposed on-demand. Virtual networks are programmatically created, provisioned and managed, utilizing the underlying physical network for simple IP connectivity. VMware NSX brings together the best of Nicira NVP and VMware vCloud Network and Security into one unified platform, delivering the entire networking and security model (Layer 2 Layer 7) in software. In addition, the VMware NSX virtual networks support existing applications, unchanged, on any physical network infrastructure.

Similar to other distributed VMware vSphere services, VMware NSX is built upon a groundbreaking distributed architecture where the network services are integrated with the hypervisor kernel. This enables network services to scale out in concert with the hypervisor to meet the applications needs. Since VMware NSX delivers Layer 2 - Layer 7 services entirely via software, all that customers need to do to grow their infrastructure is add more server nodes. This architecture enables VMware NSX to handle as much as 1 TB per second of network traffic per cluster of 32 hosts.

VMware NSX is an extensible platform that leverages a distributed service framework for easy inser
