VMware Cloud Service Delivers Simple, More
Secure, and Scalable Cloud Infrastructure to the Data Center and
Edge Utilizing Dell Technologies
VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW) today announced the availability of the
second generation of VMware Cloud on Dell EMC, a cloud service that
combines the simplicity and agility of the public cloud with the
security and control of enterprise-grade on-premises
infrastructure. Jointly developed with Dell Technologies, this
VMware service delivers simple, more secure and scalable
infrastructure as-a-service to customers’ on-premises data center
and edge locations.
“Today’s IT teams are under constant pressure to deliver the
advantages of a cloud operating model—namely, speed and
agility—while still accounting for key security and compliance
assurances,” said Fidelma Russo, senior vice president and general
manager, VMware Cloud on Dell EMC. “VMware Cloud on Dell EMC
further enables IT teams to transform the operation, management and
protection of their on-premises infrastructure to a cloud model.
Organizations can migrate existing VMware-based workloads
immediately to this cloud service, eliminating any re-development,
re-factoring, or architectural rework and related costs.
Additionally, it maximizes the value from existing IT
investments—eliminating the potential need for point IT tools and
related processes.”

expansion to ease scalability through the addition of new nodes
over time.

Cloud on Dell EMC now offers support for backup and recovery with
certification of Dell EMC PowerProtect Data Manager to protect
customers’ workloads. Additionally, the service supports other
leading backup and recovery solutions. To enable greater
operational transparency, insights and compliance, the service also
introduced complete support for VMware vRealize Log Insight
including integration with existing log solutions.

Software Defined Data Center, one of the most proven, most widely
deployed cloud infrastructures supporting some of the most
demanding business critical applications across global data
