At the VMware Explore 2022 Europe, VMware has announced new offerings and innovations, along with expanded partnerships, to enable customers to streamline their journey to multi-cloud.
“VMware and its partners continue to deliver new innovative offerings to help customers benefit from a cloud-smart approach. Customers recognize that a multi-cloud environment provides them a choice of clouds—sovereign and global—in which to run their apps. VMware is there every step of the way to help customers turn multi-cloud complexity into a competitive advantage,” said Raghu Raghuram, CEO, VMware.
Since the introduction of private clouds in the early 2010s, the cloud as a concept underwent numerous changes to finally become the go-to solution for companies that want to excel in their industry. Combining the best of both worlds - private and public the multi-cloud approach enabled companies to choose the features from each cloud that best meet their needs. However, they have encountered a lot of challenges, such as security issues and skills shortages.
VMware is helping organizations overcome these challenges by offering a “Cloud Smart” approach, with flexibility across multiple clouds. Using cloud smart and all the multi-cloud operations, many organizations have achieved top-notch results. For instance, 97 percent of cloud-smart organizations say their revenue has grown due to the multi-cloud approach, and 96 percent say it has improved their profitability. This shows the importance of VMware Cross-Cloud services, as they help customers choose the right cloud for the right app.
