VMware, Inc. has announced new initiatives around its core products, VMware View, the VMware vCenter Product Family, and VMware vSphere, to drive “business infrastructure virtualization” adoption in India. The aim is to enable Indian organizations and their IT departments to shift their primary focus from maintenance to enhancing efficiency and innovation.
Unlike other offerings that focus on virtualization for individual components within the IT infrastructure, “business infrastructure virtualization” enables organizations to virtualize all IT assets, from the desktop, through the datacenter, and extending out to the cloud by leveraging a common virtualization platform and set of automated management processes.
“Most businesses today equate virtualization with capital expenditure savings that result from server consolidation,” said T. Srinivasan, Managing Director, VMware India & SAARC. “With a broader virtualization strategy, as defined by business infrastructure virtualization, Indian businesses increasingly realize that they can achieve even more, through savings from financial, human and the earth’s energy. We are offering our customers one platform for all of their IT and virtualization needs, from deployment to management and support.”
As the leader in virtualization, VMware delivers the world’s most comprehensive portfolio of solutions for business infrastructure virtualization and has proven success helping customers reduce capital and operating expenses, boost efficiency, improve agility, ensure business continuity and strengthen security. VMware has more than 600 customers in India today, including Atrenta India, Bajaj Auto, Chitale Dairy, Dewan Housing Finance Corporation, Essel Propack, Future Businesstech, i2 Technologies, Macawber Beekay, Mahindra & Mahindra, Persistent Systems, Reliance General Insurance and Religare, among others.
