Software-Defined Storage   
VMware’s Software-Defined Storage (SDS) strategy is to evolve storage architectures through the pervasive hypervisor, bringing to storage the simplicity, efficiency, and cost-savings that server virtualization brought to compute. Software-Defined Storage abstracts the underlying storage through a virtual data plane, making the VM, and thus the application, the fundamental unit of storage provisioning and management across heterogeneous storage systems. By creating a flexible separation between applications and available resources, the hypervisor can balance all IT resources—compute, memory, storage and networking—needed by an application.

VMware’s Software-Defined Storage solutions enhance today’s data center by delivering:

Per-application storage services: SDS applies at the VM level, allowing storage services to be tailored to the precise requirements of an application and adjusted as needed on a per-application basis, without affecting neighboring applications. Administrators are in complete control of which storage services, and therefore costs, are consumed by which application.
Rapid changes to storage infrastructure: SDS uses a dynamic and non-disruptive model, just as in compute virtualization. IT admins can precisely match application demand and supply at the exact time the resources are needed. Storage services become fluid—a little more for this application now, a little less for that one later.
Heterogeneous storage support: SDS lets you leverage existing storage solutions, such as SAN and NAS, or direct attached storage on x86 industry-standard hardware. With industry standard servers, the backbone of Hyperconverged Infrastructure, IT organizations can design low-cost and scalable storage environments that easily adjust to specific and ever-changing storage needs.

 

Software-Defined Networking   
Network virtualization technology takes software-defined networking (SDN) to the next level by truly decoupling network resources from underlying hardware. In much the same way that server virtualization emulates a physical server within soft­ware, network virtualization emulates the components of network and security services in software. In this way, the virtualized network is provisioned and managed independent of your hardware. Physical networking devices simply become vehicles to forward packets.

Smarter Security with Software-First Approach

In a traditional hardware-first approach, application security is bolted on after the fact. Networks must guess what the application needs, which can lead to security gaps. A software-led approach based on VMware NSX builds security into your network and applications from the start—and positions you for a whatever comes next.

With VMware NSX solutions, you can get more value out of your existing hardware and create a solid networking foundation for your organization. VMware NSX is the networking and security platform that makes your top IT initiatives operationally feasible.

SD-WAN vs Traditional WAN

Compared to a traditional WAN deployment, SD-WAN enables your enterprise to deploy your wide area networks 100 times faster with three times the cost savings. SD-WAN lets you make your branch office agile and efficient with virtualization and cloud.

SD-WAN Makes Branch Networks Better
Virtual WAN   Deliver a network overlay with multiple links from different service providers to form a unified pool of bandwidth. Provide superior performance and high availability for applications independent of the underlying transport links.

Simplified Branch Services   SD-WAN provides insertion of network services whether on the branch CPE, in the cloud, or in regional and enterprise data centers. Software-defined flexibility with automation and business-policy abstraction simplify complex configurations of traffic routing and policy definitions.
Cloud Optimized   Enterprise-grade performance is assured even when traffic is going to cloud applications. Incremental overlay design abstracts the software layer from the underlying hardware layer and the physical transport to make an elastic network.
Pay-as-You-Grow Model   With SD-WAN, you can deploy a wide area network on-premises or in the cloud. SD-WAN eases the services insertion with application-aware forwarding to enterprise data center or cloud. Cloud-based management enables pay-as-you-grow subscription model for cost efficiency.

Hybrid WAN

A hybrid WAN enables shared use of both private (MPLS) and Internet circuits at all business locations. An SD-WAN unleashes the additional efficiencies inherent in these transport options. Traffic is steered intelligently across the right path at the right time; users are guaranteed a satisfactory experience when they access SaaS applications from every location; and IT managers gain a unique level of visibility and control of traffic routing, application performance, and policy management.

Turbo-Boost Your Hybrid WAN with SD-WAN
Enterprise-Grade Performance   Dynamic multi-path optimization (DMPO) technology brings you enterprise-grade performance and availability, as well as visibility and control to commodity broadband Internet bandwidth.

Cost-Effective Delivery Model   Distributed cloud gateways – as a service – eliminate costly and complex-to-install data center gear. This distributed network also provides automatic scaling and redundancy difficult for on-premises networks to achieve.
Rapid Branch Deployment   We deliver this new optimization, along with all other branch services, in a single cloud services edge appliance at the branch. Virtualized services remotely provisioned to this edge simplify and speed up branch deployment versus a stack of hardware appliances.

SD-WAN for Branch Offices

To interconnect branch offices, traditional WAN technologies require costly links, multiple boxes per site, and complicated network architectures. An SD-WAN takes the hub and the spoke out of your WAN. It provides seamless branch office connectivity to any number of network edges, interconnected by a virtual network, orchestrated from a single point.
