Experience the Benefits of the Internal Cloud for Dev/Test
VMware vCenter Lab Manager is the ideal solution for IT organizations who want to provide self-service provisioning and management capabilities to internal teams. Policy-based access control reduces administrative burden for IT, lowers infrastructure management costs and empowers project teams to deliver applications more quickly and with greater agility.
Lab Manager offers unique capabilities to simplify management of the internal cloud for dev/test:
- Self Service Portal - Provides on-demand access to a library of virtual machine configurations for end users while eliminating time-consuming provisioning tasks for IT by 95%.
- Automated Resource Management - Allows dynamic allocation of resources in a multi-team environment, enforces quotas and access rights, and reclaims unused infrastructure services.
- Enterprise Scalability – Provides long-term return on investment with a scalable architecture for worldwide deployment, best in class performance and seamless integrations with in-house and 3rd party solutions.
Lab Manager is ideally suited for many dev/test use cases including application development and QA, release management, support and helpdesk, training and education.
Accelerate Application Development and Testing
Give every engineer the equivalent of their own personal datacenter. In seconds, Lab Manager deploys, captures and shares any system configuration, enabling teams to rapidly prototype new applications, test software releases on a broader range of system configurations and capture, reproduce and resolve defects more easily. The Lab Manager API, as well as integrations with leading test and build management tools, provides additional automation benefits to allow for continuous testing and integration of software applications. This capability shortens delivery schedules and increases software quality.
Automate Release Management
Eliminate the risk of failed production system updates. Application owners can create faithful replicas of production systems for patch testing and seamlessly transition updated system configurations across testing, staging and production environments connected to different networks, server and storage systems. Lab Manager allows release teams to update production systems more quickly, shorten maintenance windows and avoid downtime.

Streamline Support and Helpdesk Operations
Rapidly retrieve application releases and recreate customer environments, then share those environments with other teams as support calls get escalated. With Lab Manager, support engineers troubleshoot problems sooner, rapidly validate bug fixes and close support tickets more quickly while increasing customer satisfaction.
Improve Training and Education
Set up, tear down and re-image lab equipment for hands-on training classes at a moments notice. Instructors can quickly deploy virtual lab systems to their students and create and update virtual machines shortly before each class. Students can interact with their lab systems directly through a web browser from any computer with network access, suspend the virtual training environment and continue at a later time.
