3 Ways To Speed Your Software Development Life CycleHow E�cient Is Your Production Line?

When launching applications for your business, you want to get them through development and testing and into production as quickly as possible.

Because you know the speed of rollout can impact your business dramatically—a�ecting your time-to-market, revenue, and bottom line.

Using cloud services is becoming an enabler for faster application development. But there are all-too-common obstacles on the way to production:

• Lengthy IT provisioning cycles combined with budget and resource constraints

• Inconsistencies between dev/test and production environments

• Time lost to rewriting and reconfiguring code when moving apps from development to test to production

VMware vCloud® Air™ gets you past those obstacles—and speeds your way toward production—with an on-demand infrastructure-as-a-service cloud that’s 100% compatible with your existing VMware vSphere® environment.

Get consistent, reliable resources when you need them.

• Get instant access to consistent, properly configured environments for dev/test built on a vSphere foundation

• Spin up new virtual machines of any size without worrying about predetermined instance capacity

• Dynamically scale up or down, avoiding over-purchasing and underutilization

“When Biomni needs additional resources to develop a client solution, or to test a change requested by a client, we can create a new environment in the hybrid cloud in just minutes.”—Angus Gregory, CEO at Biomni

ACCELERATOR #1

APP INSPECTOR

Eliminate inconsistencies to improve testing accuracy.

• Re-create your exact same application environment synchronized to production standards

• Accelerate time-to-production by migrating existing virtual machines and vApp templates without conversions

• Create network topologies that mirror your production workloads

“With VMware vCloud Air, we’re able to migrate workloads and data sets seamlessly from our vSphere®-based private cloud environment to the public cloud with very minimal engineering and administration from our IT team.”—Coby Holloway, Vice President, Cloud and Business Transformation Services, Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC)

ACCELERATOR #2

Deliver self-service access and improve developer productivity.

• Get the same results testing in vCloud Air that you’d get with your onsite vSphere environment

• Automate development, delivery, and management of applications with familiar VMware tools and processes or third-party tools of choice

• Easily transition applications from development to test to production with no coding changes or reconfigurations required

“vCloud Air has allowed us to rapidly increase our capacity for application testing and deployment and empower our users to provision their own resources, all while allowing us to leverage the VMware platform that we already know and trust.”—Daniel Maxwell, Senior Systems Engineer, Custom Window Systems

ACCELERATOR #3

vCloud Air delivers a truly hybrid “write once, deliver anywhere” platform, providing seamless portability of applications across development, testing, and production.
