Modernize enterprise applications to leverage cloud-based technology
Deliver new experiences with cloud and mobile-based applications
Developing and testing new apps consumes both
time and resources. vCloud Air helps accelerate
the dev/test lifecycle without sacrificing standards,
control or investing in additional infrastructure.
Accelerate Development
and Testing
Stand Up Infrastructure
On DemandReplicate onsite environments and reduce
capital expenditures by minimizing the need
to procure additional data center capacity or
invest in data center build outs.
In today’s IT departments, resources are in short
supply. Moving standard packaged applications
to the cloud helps to eliminate specialized
resources.
Extend Existing
Applications
Focus On Innovationfree up onsite IT resources for
more business-critical projects.
The complexity and expense of traditional DR
solutions are leaving many companies vulnerable
to downtime or loss of data forcing them to make
tradeoffs, and operate with only a limited DR plan
in place — or none at all.

recovery-as-a-service, for simple and
secure asynchronous replication and
failover for vSphere environments.
Expand Enterprise
Applications to the Cloud
It can be quite challenging to modernize enterprise
applications that were not built to cloud-based
standards or handle new levels of demand when
it exceeds the capacity of on-premises infrastructure.
vCloud Air Enables
Elastic Capacity to run existing enterprise apps and tiers or
create new apps that seamlessly integrate
with on-premises applications, processes or
data. Choose to keep sensitive data onsite
and move other application tiers to the cloud.
Design Next
Generation Applications
Companies need to deliver high-quality, next generation
Web and mobile apps to remain competitive. To meet
demand and handle unpredictable spikes in traffic, IT
needs the elasticity to scale and support these data-
intensive apps.
With vCloud Air, develop new cloud-native and mobile
applications that leverage data or
processes running on-premises. Freely
move workloads on or offsite at any time,
to best meet demand, performance and
cost requirements.
For companies that are running VMware to support
their on-premises infrastructure, the opportunity
has never been easier for:
improving developer productivity
creating new cloud native and mobile applications
reducing the cost of managing enterprise applications
