For networking, VMware NSX is a game-changer in the same way VMware vSphere was for data center servers. NSX virtualizes and consolidates legacy networking functionality back into a hypervisor. As a result, adding or changing network capabilities no longer requires the costly replacement of networking gear. It’s all software based—so upgrades are now just a right-click away.
The resulting cost savings are dramatic because network hardware is replaced far less often and used more efficiently. Deployment times and scalability improve substantially because networks can be created in minutes instead of weeks; and if demand falls, those resources can just as easily be reclaimed. Enhanced security via NSX’s micro-segmentation capabilities is another important benefit as well.

Because NSX is a new and powerful technology, your networking team may not yet have the expertise it needs.

They use proven best practices and a deep understanding of both your business and IT environment to reduce risks, incorporate valuable new feature sets, and make sure you get the most out of your NSX investment.
A NSX TAM can mean the difference between an implementation that just works and one that is truly successful. With the right help, NSX will make significant contributions toward the achievement of your business objectives, such as greater market responsiveness, global expansion, improvement of your disaster recovery capabilities, and better environment security.
