VMware’s vCloud Director is a powerful cloud management and orchestration tool (which you can try for yourself for 60 days), but what real customers are using it and what are they using it for? In this video, vExpert and cloud administrator, Jake Robinson, from Bluelock (a vCloud Datacenter partner) covers some of the many use cases for vCloud Director – both in the enterprise and SMB.

Examples of case studies that Jake will walk you through are the EMC “Cloud 9”, the Consona Hybrid cloud, and how many companies are using the public cloud. At the end of the video, Jake walks us through his vCloud Director lab environment, showing us vApps he uses for vCloud Director virtual networking.

I believe that this video will really help you to visualize all that can be done with vCloud Director, how it can be used at companies of various sizes, and for what purposes.

This is great insight from a vCloud Director administrator at a vCloud Datacenter partner.
