Get Your Product VMware Ready™ Certified

The VMware Ready Certified for Hardware enables Technology Alliance Partners (TAP) to provide our mutual customers with jointly supported hardware solutions. The program creates a broad ecosystem of devices that are certified to run with the VMware ESX product line and VDI, making available more choices for customers and new platforms for you to sell on.

Getting Started

Once you have taken the steps to fulfill the requirements of the program, you will be provided a link to download the VMware Select Partner Certification Program Guide which provides further details on:

  1. Certification Policies
  2. Technical Requirements
  3. Server and Storage device pre-testing and bring-up activities

Current TAP partners can login to Partner Central, click on the VMware Certified tab. There you will find a program guide along with all of the steps you need to get started.
