Convirture, a provider of open source, cross-platform virtualization management tools, has announced new software designed to allow enterprises to manage private clouds, hybrid clouds and virtualized infrastructures from a single console.
Longtime partners Hitachi and VMware (NYSE: VMW) have again teamed up, this time to promote hybrid cloud technology, with the Japanese vendor joining the virtualization kingpin’s vCloud Data Center Services program and the two companies pledging to collaborate on cloud services research and development, marketing and sales activities.
Did anyone really expect Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) to sit idly quiet while rival VMware (NYSE: VMW) talked up its new hybrid cloud services unit, a major turn in focus for the virtualization kingpin?
VMware’s new hybrid cloud offering will allow its customers to migrate their cloud services to a public cloud, saving money in the move through shared equipment.
Performance management specialist Riverbed Technology (NASDAQ: RVBD) and virtualization giant VMware (NYSE: VMW) announced the latest step in their partnership to help enterprises move to the cloud with Riverbed wide area network (WAN) optimization solutions, which accelerate virtual machines (VMs) moving between clouds — private, public and hybrid — using VMware vCloud Connector.
