VMware showcases the future of IT at vForum conference in Mumbai

VMware-logoMumbai, India,  October 30, 2014: VMware, the global player in virtualization and cloud infrastructure, showcased the future of IT at its annual vForum conference in Mumbai.  Charting a path from today till 2020, the enterprise in India will leverage IT outcomes to drive business benefits and increase efficiency, control and agility as a transition to the mobile cloud era.


“The old model of IT is not good enough in the software defined era, where traditional businesses are being challenged and a new approach to align IT with the business is needed to compete,” said Sanjay Mirchandani, senior vice president and general manager, Asia Pacific and Japan, VMware.  “We’re on the cusp of the next big technology era in Asia where IT will adapt to the speed of business and drive business outcomes with a software defined enterprise – and many Indian organizations are already on this journey,” Mirchandani added. 


According to an IDC report commissioned by VMware titled “Empowering Organizations in a Software Defined World,” an estimated US$4 billion is expected to be avoided between 2014 and 2020 with a software defined approach to managing IT in India. For Asia Pacific and Japan an estimated US$92.4 billion is expected to be avoided. Separately, the IDC C-Suite Barometer identified 1) Integrated and Converged Infrastructure, 2) Software Defined Networking and Storage, 3) Open Source Cloud and 4) Software Defined Data Center, as the most appealing new enterprise technologies.


At the vForum event today, VMware showcased new products and solutions designed to drive business benefits in the software defined era for Indian businesses.


Software Defined Data Center


VMware’s SDDC strategy is the future of the data center. VMware’s SDDC is the ideal architecture in which all resources are fully virtualized and made available via private, public, and hybrid cloud, and delivers the peak of flexibility, efficiency, agility, control and choice for IT and the business.


Hyper Converged Infrastructure


VMware EVO:RAIL jumpstarts a customer’s journey to the Software-Defined Data Center. The appliance removes the burden of integration, optimization, configuration, testing, installation and on-going management, upgrading and patching from IT teams.


Software Defined Networking


VMware NSX is the network virtualization and security platform for the software-defined data center. NSX brings virtualization to enterprises’ existing network and transforms network operations and economics.


Software Defined Storage


VMware’s Virtual SAN automatically and dynamically matches requirements with underlying storage resources. With Virtual SAN, many manual storage tasks are automated – delivering a more efficient and cost-effective operational model.


Open Cloud Technology


VMware’s Integrated OpenStack solution enables IT organizations to quickly and cost-effectively deliver developer-friendly OpenStack APIs and tools on top of their existing VMware Infrastructure. They can provide API-driven infrastructure for internal developers, and repatriate workloads from unmanageable and insecure public clouds. IT can manage and troubleshoot an OpenStack cloud with the same familiar VMware tools they already use every day, providing significant operational cost savings and faster time-to-value.
