VMware vCloud® Hybrid Service™

"A customer doesn't just initiate a workload under the VMware hypervisor in the cloud; he initiates one, when desired, that's identical to the one running in his data center. The network characteristics are the same. The policies on the firewall and

other security measures are the same."

Principles of Architecture

• Trusted by 500,000 customers, 99% of Fortune Global 1000

• Delivering a complete approach to ITaaS

• 3rd in Forbes “Most Innovative Companies”

• Successful public cloud = mastering networking & security in the cloud• Key to hybrid clouds: connecting environments• Getting these both right was difficult, time consuming, and expensive

Principle #4: Extend Your Network

• Modern silos are still silos• Silos increase cost and complexity• Silos limit automation

Principle #5: Extend Your IT Control

• No one time commitment to sizing• Incremental add-ons• License mobility

Principle #6: Dynamic Resources

• Strong Customer Service is very popular• On premises and on vCHS treated the same

Principle #7: One VMware

Typically Microsoft Exchange,

Sharepoint & other common off the

shelf apps

Data center extension and

replication of VMs and data

Modernization of existing

applications – e.g. mobile front end for

CTM app

New, cloud-native applications: e.g.

mobile phone games

• Provision todays demands today• Size infrastructure to peak workloads• Delight Line of Business customers

Principle #1: Deliver Fast Capacity

• The Software Defined Data Center for rent• Leapfrog rivals technology agility• Automation accelerates time to value

Principle #2: Deliver Fast Capability

• Has Disaster Recovery been too costly to address?• Does your existing Disaster Recovery work?• Are you paying premium for an all-in platinum Disaster Recovery solution?

Principle #3: Deliver Disaster Recovery

vCloud Hybrid Service - Disaster Recovery

Simple and secure asynchronous replication and failover for vSphere

• Warm standby capacity on vCHS

• Self-service protection, failover and failback workflows per VM

• 15 min1 – 24 hr. recovery point objective (RPO)

• 4 hours or less recovery time objective (RTO)

• Initial data seeding by shipping a disk

• Includes:• 2x 7-day DR tests per year

• 30 days of recovered VM run time
