Surviving the multicloud milieu with evolving software as a service tools
To address the needs of the multicloud milieu that many companies are running today, VMware Inc. is providing enhanced cloud software as a service tools to cover analytics, automation, cost management and compliance. These tools provide a unified platform to help engineering and operations teams gain a clear view into the cloud via automated tools and insights, according to Milin Desai (pictured), executive vice president and general manager of cloud services at VMware.
“That’s really what’s driving the adoption of SaaS,” Desai said. “It’s easy to use, it gets you to outcomes quicker, and [customers] don’t have to worry about the management elements.”
So whether it is the recent updates to VMware Cloud Management tools — Cloud Assembly, Service Broker and Code Stream — which are delivered as SaaS to hybrid infrastructure, or even if customers prefer to deploy their workloads in AWS or Azure, VMware’s SaaS tools are ready to be deployed.
Desai spoke with John Furrier (@furrier) and Stu Miniman (@stu), co-hosts of theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s mobile livestreaming studio, during the VMworld conference in Las Vegas, Nevada. In addition to discussing VMware’s tools for SaaS, they also spoke about how VMware is making it easy for users to “order cloud.” (* Disclosure below.)
Easy-to-order cloud services
Two main shifts in VMware’s market strategy are SaaS experiences on-premises and VMware’s expanding industry partnership with Amazon Web Services Inc., according to Desai. The two trends are merging together, both in terms of product opportunity — with VMware Cloud on AWS — and the overall delivery of VMware’s SaaS capabilities, both with hybrid and public cloud.
“Cloud Services is the portfolio that delivers VMware services from management to security, to operations as SaaS services to the private cloud, as well as to the public cloud,” Desai said.
Because managing databases can be a painful process, VMware consulted with its customers to find an effective solution. “Customers want a managed service. They don’t want to deal with the intricacies of managing databases. They just want the outcomes,” Desai stated.
So VMware has made it simple for customers to order all SaaS-based cloud services via a Netflix-like catalog. A customer logs onto the VMware site, their enterprise identity is federated, and then they can see the catalog, Desai explained. Customers can subscribe to the catalog, and they receive a common experience in terms of billing and essentially start using the services. That way, users can choose whatever works best for them, he concluded.
