For some customers, hybrid is the preferred operating model

Customers are seeking an integrated and hybrid approach

As customers move to the

cloud, they are looking for

ways to get the best of both

worlds without buying new

hardware, refactoring or re-

platforming and leveraging

existing investments, skillsets,

and tools.

On-Premises Public Cloud

§ Scale faster

§ Reduce costs

§ Establish global footprint

§ Pay-as-you-go

§ Access broader range

of services

§ Use familiar tools

and processes

§ Leverage existing

investments

§ Maintain unique hardware

configurations

§ Have granular control over

placement of

apps and data

Use Case 2: Pilot Light Disaster Recovery Site

• Use HCX Disaster Recovery for Replication and Failover

• Keep Core Services Running in VMware Cloud on AWS on vSAN

• Scale to full production for testing or at disaster declaration by adding on-demand hosts

• Minimal vSAN rebalance times allows faster scalability both up and down

• Scale down post-testing or keep production in VMware Cloud on AWS and convert to subscription rates

Use Case 3: Protecting from an Availability Zone Failure

Cloud Volume Service sits outside the AWS Region

Re-Zone the same Datastores to another SDDC

No Data Replication needed to protect against AZ failure

Script Registration of VMs for shorter RTO

Use Case 4: Custom sizing for pCPU Application Licensing

Configure only the CPUs you Need (applied cluster wide)

Reduce per-core application licensing costs

Connect to Cloud Volumes Service Datastores to augment the storage to meet application needs

Storage is available for access by all clusters

Regular Cluster “Custom” Cluster
