Create Differentiated Solutions on VMware Platforms
TAP members get access to a comprehensive set of developer resources to develop rich and robust applications on VMware platform, create differentiated solutions and reduce time-to-market. These resources include,
- Products such as toolkits and APIs
- Content such as documentation and knowledge base
- Source code access and
- Services such as developer forums, incident support, architectural help and certification
These resources are packaged in the form of programs listed below. Together they are called Co-Development Programs. We continue to improve the breadth and depth of resources, so let us know your suggestions.
Specific API Programs
While the SDKs provide a set of published APIs that are sufficient for majority of tasks related to the management of virtualized infrastructure, certain functionalities require partners to access, adopt and / or collaborate in the development of specific APIs. Membership in programs related to such APIs is available to qualified partners. These programs provide access to specific APIs and R&D resources for collaborative development purposes. Examples of such programs are:
- VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager (SRM) Program – This program is open to qualified partners interested in integrating with VMware's site recovery solution. SRM partners have access to VMware's SRM APIs and development tools, and work with VMware's R&D organization to integrate their products and to influence future enhancements.
- VMware VMsafe Program – The program is open to qualified security partners to collaborate with VMware on development of APIs that enable partners to develop security products for VMware environments. Members get access to VMsafe APIs as well as related tools. The result is an open approach to security that provides customers with the most secure platform on which they can virtualize their business-critical applications.
