VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW), a leading innovator in enterprise
software, today announced that Ceridian, Etisalat, Porsche
Informatik and Yorkshire Water have succeeded in implementing key
elements of their respective digital transformation initiatives
with the VMware vRealize Suite. The suite delivers a hybrid cloud

management. Customers are adopting VMware vRealize Suite to operate
and automate their hybrid cloud environments with an AI/ML engine
for a ‘hands-off’ and ‘hassle-free’ approach to transform their
business.

Business ProblemsBased in Minneapolis, Minn., Ceridian is
a global human capital management (HCM) software company. Dayforce,
its flagship cloud HCM platform, provides human resources, payroll,

Defined Data Center, one of the most proven, most widely deployed
cloud infrastructures supporting some of the most demanding
business critical applications across the globe. With VMware
vRealize Automation, the company has gained agility and speed by
enabling its developers to increase the delivery of key application
and infrastructure resources in support of its HCM platform.

Porsche Informatik Adopts Software Defined Data Center
to Strengthen Its Digital LeadershipBased in Salzburg,
Austria, Porsche Informatik develops leading software solutions for
the automotive industry. To face the latest digital challenges,
Porsche Informatik modernized its data center by implementing the
VMware Software Defined Data Center to support and optimize
solutions that are used in 30 countries. The architecture provides
a strong foundation for Porsche Informatik's software developers
and employees in order to drive digitalization of the automotive
industry. With VMware vRealize Automation, the company has
significantly reduced time-to-market. The cloud automation platform
provides real-time test systems for internal and external
developers. Infrastructure costs and manpower can be saved due to
fewer tickets to IT administrators as well as streamlining of
approvals.
“Today, Porsche Informatik employees realize more projects in
the same amount of time – and boost the company’s productivity
considerably,” said Gerald Nezerka, Team Lead Virtualization &
Storage at Porsche Informatik. “VMware vRealize Automation has
helped increase efficiency by automating complex IT tasks and
optimizing efficiency of service provisioning, operational
management and IT agility.”
Yorkshire Water Maximizes Private Cloud
UsageBased in Bradford, UK, Yorkshire Water is one of the
UK’s leading utility companies. It manages over 62,000 miles of
pipework connecting water systems across England’s largest county,
providing 1.24 billion liters of drinking water each day. The
business has pledged to digitally transform the way it works. It
favors “as a service” technologies, greater automation, and a
widespread use of cloud infrastructure. By adopting VMware vRealize
Suite, the business is maximizing the use of its IT resources,
simplifying the management of its private cloud environment and
improving IT agility. The suite has enabled Yorkshire Water’s IT
team to speed server provisioning by 84x (from seven days to two
hours) as well as to consolidate its hosts to reduce previously
wasted compute resources by 38 percent.
“By leveraging the in-depth capacity management capabilities of
vRealize Operations we’re able to assess virtual workloads and look
to consolidate where practicable,” said Paul Bayley, senior
infrastructure engineer, Yorkshire Water. “This leads to a lower
physical footprint in turn reducing the power consumption, cooling
demand and lowering operational management of rack space.”
