The overarching challenge in the cloud era: support business need for speed and agility, while maintaining control and reducing IT costs.

1. Management is the Key
Get the Cloud Working for You
The Challenge
vCloud and vRealize
Benefits:
Organizations want the optimal speed and flexibility from their
IT resource. You need a management suite that can not only
span on premises and cloud infrastructure, but a solution
that can deliver both rapid provisioning and effective
ongoing management capabilities.
With the advent of virtualization, IT
organizations have gone from managing
hundreds of servers to managing tens
of thousands across both on premises
and off premises environments.
Operations teams have struggled
to find an effective means to
address this increased complexity
and scale.
Software-Defined Data Centers — an open architecture
for building, operating, and managing a private, public,
or hybrid cloud.
Workloads will be a mix of traditional and modern
application architectures. They will be provisioned in an
increasingly virtualized mix of physical and virtual
environments managed both on-site and in public clouds.
VMware vCloud Suite brings together vSphere,
vCenter Site Recovery Manager, and vRealize
cloud management platform capabilities to deliver
the foundation for a vSphere-based private cloud
vRealize Suite:
vRealize Suite extends the vRealize cloud
management platform capabilities included
in vCloud Suite to address non-vSphere
hypervisors, physical infrastructure, and
public cloud environments.
The Vision: One Cloud, Any Application, Any Device
Organizations come in all shapes and sizes and are
at different stages of maturity. VMware offers multiple
paths for acquiring the capabilities of a cloud
management platform.
Concerns about the security of cloud
computing solutions (risk of unauthorized
access, data integrity and protection)
No matter where you are on your transformation journey ...

Support for both key elements of management tasks
The vast majority of IT tasks can be separated into “Day One” and “Day Two”
tasks. Day One is primarily a focus on delivery and deployment of services or
applications. Day Two is focused on the management and administration of
the entire “stack.”
