Accelerate Application Delivery
Introduce new application functionality in response to changing business needs faster than ever before with virtualization. The growing and unmanageable volume of application changes that must be tested, staged and deployed into production can be addressed with VMware vSphere, accelerating service delivery from testing to provisioning.
" We can give our end users a virtual machine in half an hour, when it takes two to three weeks to spec out, order, and set up a physical one. "
— Bill Frost, Senior IS Engineer, Boise Inc.
Provision Applications on Demand
Eliminate the months of lead time required to procure and install dedicated hardware, provision and configure the OS, and finally configure the multiple application tiers. These long delays cripple business agility and dramatically slow down the availability of new functionality and services. This manual process is also error-prone and can lead to configuration mistakes and application downtime.
VMware vSphere enables the creation of a library of vApps, easily provisioned on demand to your existing virtual infrastructure. These gold images of pre-configured multi-tier applications ensure configuration consistency across application instances and eliminate the overhead and risk associated with manual configurations. Operational policies and service level requirements are also contained in vApps, which VMware vSphere automatically identifies and executes by providing the required levels of availability and scalability.
" Because we’re a small company, we would never have the ability—or the funding—to put in a full-blown test environment. But with VMware, if I want to test a subset of our servers for upgrades or migrations, I can take them down, clone them, and I’ve got servers I can use for our test. "
— Whitney Kuszmaulm, Network Manager, The Cleveland Indians Company
Streamline Testing & Troubleshooting
Test and troubleshoot your complex, multitier applications quickly while minimizing risk of change. Use VMware vCenter Server Snapshots and Clones to reproduce your vApps, encapsulating entire multitier applications, in the lab in minutes. Test application changes in the context of related application tiers on an exact copy of your production configuration to minimize the risk of errors. Eliminate the need to provision applications manually for each test cycle.
Automate Release Cycles
Automate your release cycles with VMware vCenter Lab Manager. Visualize, streamline and automate the process of rolling new and updated applications into production. Applications can be promoted between the stages of the release process and into production with no manual provisioning. Reduce the risks associated with application changes by enabling IT and application administrators to easily clone system configurations and maintain consistent virtual machine images throughout the release process.
