New Approach to Hospitality
Global hotelier Marriott International is embracing the new reality of digital business to transform how employees work and how customers experience the brand. To facilitate its digital transformation, Marriott modernized its infrastructure using VMware solutions as part of an integrated compute, network, and storage environment. With VMware, Marriott has the foundation to significantly streamline data center operations and deliver more services faster to a growing customer base.

Cloud Powered
As a longtime VMware customer, it was important to Marriott that they take advantage of existing skillsets as they modernized their infrastructure. Marriott chose VMware Cloud Foundation on IBM Cloud to securely extend its on-premises data center into the public cloud and enable a variety of new digital experiences. With a powerful combination of data center and cloud technologies, Marriott has seen faster time to service delivery. They can shift resource consumption into the public cloud without compromising compliance or security—and without vendor lock-in.
