We’ve made it to part five of our #VCFacts series, dedicated to sharing the facts about VMware Cloud Foundation so teams can make an informed decision about adopting our integrated, virtualized software stack. If you’re just joining us, you can read parts one through four here to brush up on some additional facts about our market-leading solution.
In this blog, we’ll examine how the VMware Cloud Foundation full-stack empowers developers to create next-generation applications for the modern digital era. Let’s jump into our facts.
Fact 14: VMware Cloud Foundation provides a single architecture for the development of all your applications.
A key to greater developer agility and faster time-to-market for applications is increased simplicity and efficiency. VMware Cloud Foundation takes the complexity out of application development with a single architecture that’s easy to deploy. With VMware Cloud Foundation, developers and IT teams can experience consistent, secure infrastructure and operations across clouds. By combining compute, storage, and network virtualization into an integrated software stack, VMware Cloud Foundation helps to break down the administrative siloes associated with legacy data centers to foster the rapid deployment of modern applications. Merging these key capabilities allows developers to work with more agility while IT teams gain greater visibility and control into the entire infrastructure.
Fact 15: VMware Cloud Foundation supports cloud-native application architectures.
Cloud-native solutions built on modern application frameworks help drive vital digital transformation efforts. If an organization wishes to be successful in this digital era, it must increase the speed and agility with which new applications are being developed and deployed. Embracing cloud-native applications allows businesses to achieve their aspirations. VMware Cloud Foundation enables customers to build and seamlessly manage next-generation cloud-native applications and modernize existing applications. By significantly reducing the complexity, cost, and risk of setting up cloud-native infrastructures, VMware paves the way for customers to succeed and for developers to support their business in new, innovative ways.
Fact 16: VMware Cloud Foundation delivers enterprise-grade scale, performance, and resiliency for modern applications.
The VMware Cloud Foundation hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) stack promotes secure, agile deployment of modern applications. Cloud admins are constantly struggling with the surge in compute, storage, and network needs as their business transforms. With VMware Cloud Foundation, teams can enjoy enterprise-grade scale that allows them to move and grow resources flexibly. VMware Cloud Foundation continuously optimizes performance and scale to accommodate changing workload needs by establishing operational consistency and centralized management in the data center. VMware Cloud Foundation provides a single, resilient platform with the scalability and self-service capabilities needed to operate and succeed. The most agile digital companies are those who can react quickly to any disruption and scale accordingly. VMware Cloud Foundation ensures that developers and businesses are prepared for whatever’s next.
Fact 17: VMware Cloud Foundation boosts developer productivity via self-service APIs.
Resources provided through a set of VMware Cloud Foundations Services surfaced via Kubernetes and RESTful APIs ensure developers can increase productivity and bring their applications to life quicker. With VMware Cloud Foundation, developers have unimpeded access to the application code, infrastructure services, runtime environments, and more, giving them the resources they need to succeed. Developers can consume cloud resources such as Kubernetes clusters, disks, and networks using Kubernetes CLI and API tools while admins manage systems at scale. By automating infrastructure provisioning and scaling, VMware Cloud Foundation allows developers to focus their attention on building and deploying applications.
With the most comprehensive software stack for modern applications on the market today, VMware Cloud Foundation enables developers to build, deploy and manage modern applications with ease.
