EIT 9.1: Beyond Hyper-converged – VMware EVO SDDC Integrated Systems
VMware's software-defined data center vision extends virtualization across all data center resources (compute, storage, and networking) to offer a fully automated, policy-driven resource provisioning, management, and operation of a private cloud. EVO SDDC integrated systems deliver on this promise. EVO SDDC Manager provides automated, simplified, rapid setup of the entire SDDC-based private cloud as well as automated lifecycle management of the entire stack including hardware and software components. In this session, the EVO SDDC solution and architecture are presented in depth.
