The resulting hybrid cloud is compatible with a customers existing IT assets and allows them to build new cloud-native applications, delivering agility and efficiency to the business in a secure, and reliable manner.

As part of the VCE Experience, Vblock Systems are delivered and supported by VCE as a single product, with seamless component-level updates, lifecycle management and end-to-end vendor accountability.
The expanded partnership will extend the VCE Experience to new integrated solutions for cloud management that combine VCE converged infrastructure with VMware vRealize cloud management software into a single system, providing customers with the option to order Vblock Systems pre-installed with VMware vCloud Automation and vCenter Operations Suite, and ready for vCloud Air. The solutions will provide customers with a foundational private cloud that is hybrid cloud-ready, with the technology to migrate workloads to VMware vCloud Air out of the box. The solutions address customer demand for hybrid cloud capabilities with a simplified data center infrastructure that can be expanded over time as application requirements change.

VCE and VMware are pioneers in delivering exceptional value to customers looking to get the most from their data center investments, said Todd Pavone, executive vice president, product strategy and development, VCE. As the industry continues to shift toward hybrid cloud computing models, we have a significant opportunity to help customers bridge their Vblock-based private cloud environments to VMware vCloud Air with simplified, built-in VMware cloud management and onramps that enable seamless workload migration between clouds.
