Editor's Notes
- Let’s Dive into the vCloud Air Hybrid Cloud Differentiators VMware is uniquely positioned to offer the best hybrid cloud because it is built on the same stack being used in the majority of data centers today. With almost half a million customers running vSphere and many of them with VMware-first policies, there are approximately 36 million virtual machines out there running on VMware technology. vCloud Air is a seamless extension of a customer’s data center – with seamless networking, common management, and ability to support both existing and new applications, using the same interface. I also want to highlight our exemplary technical support. This is a key differentiator for us – particularly when compared to Microsoft and AWS support and we should highlight it.
- Consumption-based Costs: charges incurred only for what is used, as it is used turning more static higher capital costs into variable operating expense Fast and Easy Access: self-service credit card-based options to acquire the right resources, as needed, for testing and deploying against highly elastic capacity demands. Multiple VDC’s: resources can be divided into more easily managed virtual data centers and allocated by department, region, development group, project group, business unit…etc… Resizable resources: you can easily add or expand CPU, memory or storage, in any ratio, at any time without powering down those VMs No upfront commitments: because OnDemand is pay as you go, there are no minimum configuration requirements or initial costs incurred Bi-directional Workload Portability: Ability to instantly relocate workloads back and forth between onsite data center and offsite public cloud infrastructures and easily across dev, test and production environments with no application changes and no required reconfiguration or recoding of apps or redesigning architectures to enable an application to run in a cloud environment. Easy Provisioning with Out-of-the-box Adherence to Standards: quickly replicate test environments and stand up new VMs that immediately meet production standards. This translates into Consistent Security and Compliance for easy extension of on premises security and compliance frameworks to more scalable public cloud environments. Seamless Integration: no requirements to migrate, change or reconfigure workloads that may need to operate across hybrid onsite and offsite infrastructure.
- vCloud Air is a subscription service with three service offerings that can be deployed individually or in combination with one another. Our core compute offerings include a Dedicated Cloud which is physically isolated, meaning this is their own private cloud instance and is ideal for workloads that require more predictable performance, compliance with 3rd party OS and app licenses, or organizational segmentation. A Virtual Private Cloud is logically isolated and ideal for burst workloads, short-term projects, campaigns or net new application development. Another offering is our cost-effective Disaster Recovery as a Service offering which is logically isolated and includes all the infrastructure a customer requires for a warm standby business continuity solution. That also means that a customer does not need to have vCloud Air first to take advantage of vCloud Air-DR. Each service can be deployed in monthly, yearly or ELA terms.
- Resource Pool-based – allowing deployment of VMs with customized configurations - versus instance-based models where customers have a finite selection of VM instance-types from which to choose and deploy. NOTE: VMware believes the resource-based approach provides greater benefits toward granular environment flexibility, higher economic efficiencies, and a more familiar and consistent VMware resource pool experience.
- Running OpenStack with VMware enables customers to leverage the proven performance, reliability and security of the vSphere platform. Key features such as DRS, HA and vMotion are preserved and can be used by the vCenter admin. Lower costs from better utilization of resources and operational savings.
- NSX is the leading Network Virtualization platform. With NSX a customer can leverage the full power of Neutron. It is highly-available, it can scale and it works across different hypervisors. The best and most advanced way to run Neutron networking, regardless of hypervisor choice, is with NSX as the underlying network virtualization platform.
- VMware added the Cinder driver in the OpenStack Havana release in the fall of 2013. With the VMware Cinder driver, a customer can leverage any vSphere supported storage technology for block storage. The VMware Cinder driver also supports VSAN and SPBM.
- VMware added the VMware Glance driver in the Spring 2014 Icehouse release. The VMware Glance driver enables customers to leverage any vSphere supported storage technology, including VSAN, for image storage. VM boot and snapshots are more efficient and faster because images are stored directly on datastores. This allows copy operations to be optimized.

- VMware customers using Cloudify now will be able to use a common management interface across the entire VMware cloud offering, which includes vCloudAir, vCenter/vSphere and the recently announced VMware Integrated OpenStack. Cloudify integrated with vCloud Air via its API extension enables support for TOSCA (as a portable blueprint) and Docker (as a portable image), so that users can seamlessly migrate workloads across those environments or build a hybrid deployment that runs simultaneously on vCloud Air and OpenStack or vSphere. “With the addition of Cloudify, vCloud Air customers now have a TOSCA-compliant orchestration alternative, one that is ideal for heterogeneous environments where standards-based solutions are needed, said Ajay Patel, vice president of Applications Services, vCloud Air, VMware. “By integrating Cloudify via the vCloud Air API, we can now deliver a common management and orchestration experience across OpenStack as well as the portfolio of industry-leading VMware cloud solutions.” Additionally, vCloud Air users will gain a TOSCA-standard means to deploy complex micro services, Big Data or NFV applications. The user experience is straightforward and consistent across all cloud platforms, from installation through a fully managed environment. “Many Cloudify users – especially enterprises and telcos – may have experienced difficulties connecting their OpenStack and VMware environments, “ said xxx at GigaSpaces. “Support for vCloud Air gives these users a common management and orchestration capability across different cloud environments while adding the option of leveraging the vCloud Air public cloud offering.” On Wednesday, February 4, 2015, VMware partners and customers can see a demo of Cloudify at the VMware Partner Exchange session on the vCloud Air ISV program, #ISV4753. VMware partners and System Integrators will learn how they can now address customer demand for further openness and simplicity. They will also learn how they can include these new TOSCA services as part of their added value services to customers, and to shorten and simplify their cloud enablement projects.
