Microsoft Azure Arc-enabled VMware vSphere and Hybrid Distributed Clouds | VMware Explore 2023
In this exclusive VMblog video interview as part of our VMware Explore US 2023 coverage, we speak with Jeff Woolsey, Principal PM Manager at Microsoft.
During this interview, Woolsey takes us on a journey across a number of topics being worked on by his group at Microsoft, many of which will be highlighted on stage, during breakout sessions, and certainly at the Microsoft booth at VMware Explore.
Watch this video as we discuss how Microsoft partners with VMware. And beyond that, how Microsoft works with VMware users and implementations. As a VMware user, you'll want to learn more about Azure VMware Solution, running your VMware workloads natively on Azure. Seamlessly move VMware-based workloads from your datacenter to Azure and integrate your VMware environment with Azure. Best of all, keep managing your existing environments with the same VMware tools you already know, while you modernize your applications with Azure native services.
Woolsey also introduces us to Azure Arc, the overarching brand for a suite of Azure hybrid products that extend specific Azure public cloud services and/or management capabilities beyond Azure to on-premises environments and 3rd-party clouds.
Azure Arc-enabled VMware vSphere allows users to perform various VMware virtual machine (VM) lifecycle operations directly from Azure, such as create, start/stop, resize, and delete. And empower developers and application teams to self-serve VM operations on-demand using Azure role-based access control (RBAC).
Get ready for Microsoft to explore more of their Azure strategy and hybrid distributed cloud at VMware Explore.
