Rapidly Extend, Migrate and Protect Your VMware Environment to AWS, Orchestrated by CDW

As global workloads accelerate, the need for greater agility and global deployment options have driven public clouds to be increasingly more attractive.1 Many organisations view public clouds as a way to gain the flexibility and speed to respond to changing business needs, accelerate innovation and align costs to business requirements by managing upfront expenses, operational support and TCO.

However, in doing so, the same organisations are also recognising the benefit of having public clouds integrate and work seamlessly with their on-premises infrastructure while taking advantage of their existing teams, skillsets, tools and processes.

Modern enterprise applications benefit from an integrated and hybrid approach.

VMware Cloud on AWS

VMware Cloud™ on AWS delivers on this promise by providing a unified infrastructure framework that bridges the gap between private and public clouds. VMware Cloud on AWS delivers a seamlessly integrated hybrid cloud that extends on-premises vSphere environments to a VMware SDDC running on Amazon EC2 elastic, bare-metal infrastructure and is fully integrated as part of the AWS Cloud.

VMware Cloud on AWS enables Enterprise IT and Operations teams to continue to add value to their business in the AWS cloud, while maximising their VMware investments, without the need to buy new hardware. This offering enables customers to quickly and confidently scale up or down capacity, without change or friction, for any workload with access to native cloud services.
