Using Azure VMware Solution (AVS) to migrate VMware environments to Azure is shaping up to be a major strategic choice for VMware companies, especially considering the upcoming business evolutions after recent corporate developments* and the possible financial and operational implications.
AVS offers the opportunity to easily extend and migrate existing VMware environments to Azure, enabling native execution on this platform and maintaining consistency with on-premises environments. This enables rapid migration, allowing you to take advantage of the benefits of the cloud in the shortest possible time.
Particularly relevant is the fluency of workload migration to Azure via AVS, eliminating the need to reconfigure existing architectures and minimizing operational disruptions.
From an economic perspective, AVS offers significant opportunities for cost reduction and containment. According to a 2023 IDC report**, companies adopting AVS can reduce infrastructure costs by up to 30 percent and 3-year TCO by 37 percent.
In addition, by choosing AVS, businesses can lock in VMware solution costs for up to 5 years, thanks to a promotion active until March 31, 2024, that allows them to purchase a reserved instance of Azure VMware Solution for that period.
AVS also offers the flexibility to decide which workloads to migrate to the cloud and when to do so, allowing applications to be enhanced with access to Azure services. Abandoning physical servers for AVS simplifies configuration, making it more manageable and scalable, freeing up time to focus on business growth.
In a further development, AVS enables customers to maintain existing VMware skills and operational processes and integrate them with Azure cloud services to modernize applications, including innovation with artificial intelligence.
In conclusion, Azure VMware Solution represents a significant strategic move for companies working with VMware, offering significant benefits in terms of integration, cost savings, flexibility, innovation and simplification of operations.
