VMware

To date VMware customers and vCloud Powered Service Providers around the globe have used vCAT to guide their vCloud deployments and offer technical validation, saving them both time and money. vCAT has also been essential for VMware VSPP partners, serving as the foundation for the design and architecture of VSPP Cloud environments, and offering technical validation for Service Providers who desire to partner with VMware.

 

VMware has successfully implemented dozens of cloud infrastructures. To help you leverage the experience and best practices we have accumulated from these deployments, we have developed the vCloud Architecture Toolkit (vCAT) - a set of documents you can use to better understand both the principles upon which VMware’s cloud strategy is executed, and the mechanics for you to implement your own cloud infrastructure.

 

The newest version of vCAT has been expanded to provide more detail on operational and organization considerations for building and running a VMware vCloud, new examples to help customers build hybrid cloud environments, and updated to reflect the latest product releases from VMware – including vSphere 5 and vCloud Director 1.5.
