VMWARE PARTNER EXCHANGE – Arrow Electronics Inc. (NYSE:

with the addition of VMware vCloud® Hybrid Service™ on the

applications without requiring any code changes. Existing
investments, processes and expertise can be leveraged to greatly
simplify deployment into public, private and hybrid clouds,
enabling lower total costs of ownership.
The ArrowSphere platform lets solution providers create branded

services from leading cloud service providers. ArrowSphere
webstores puts solution providers at the forefront of cloud
transformation opportunities by enabling them to continue serving
as trusted advisors for customers seeking to purchase and integrate
cloud services. ArrowSphere solution business services assist
solution providers with adopting and scaling cloud practices by
taking much of the guess-work out of business development.
“We are pleased to join with Arrow to offer VMware vCloud®
Hybrid Service™, which enables customers to obtain comprehensive IT
services from partners, while providing an easy and fast path to
achieve the agility and efficiency of the public cloud,” said Frank
Rauch, vice president, Americas partner organization, VMware.
“VMware vCloud Hybrid Service is built on the trusted foundation of
VMware vSphere®, and it provides customers with a common platform
to seamlessly extend their data center to the cloud, without having
to change or rewrite their applications."
“VMware vCloud Hybrid Service utilizes the same platform, skills
and investments that are already widely deployed across the IT
industry. This can greatly simplify and speed the deployment of
hybrid cloud solutions,” said Jim Livingston, vice president of
services for Arrow’s enterprise computing solutions business in
