We’re excited to join our partners at Microsoft in presenting a full range of Azure VMware Solution (AVS) breakout sessions, product tutorials, expert roundtables, and hands-on labs at VMware Explore 2024 Barcelona, November 4-7. Microsoft is once again participating as an Explore Diamond Sponsor, so you can’t miss them on the Expo floor and in the Explore Content Catalog. Gold sponsor NetApp and Silver sponsor Pure Storage will also be in Barcelona to show how their Azure storage services enhance AVS.
Azure VMware Solution – VMware infrastructure as a native Azure service
Azure VMware Solution is Microsoft’s native Azure service that provides fully consistent VMware infrastructure on bare-metal hosts in Azure regions worldwide. That consistency means your vSphere VMs can migrate directly to the Azure cloud without replatforming and your IT team skills and operational processes stay relevant. If you’re facing seemingly impossible deadlines to move to the cloud, Azure VMware Solution consistency and cost savings can keep your migration project on schedule and under budget.
VMware Cloud Foundation license portability makes AVS even better!
As announced by Microsoft, customers can now bring their VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) subscriptions to AVS. Subscription portability gives you the flexibility to run VCF where you want and change plans as needed. You can deploy VCF in your on-premises data center today and later on bring those subscriptions to Azure when it’s time to move to the cloud. Choose the best venue for your VMware infrastructure while preserving your investment. Broadcom and Microsoft will give you all the details about VCF subscription portability in our Explore Barcelona AVS breakout sessions.
