  • >>> Carl Eschenbach: The software-defined enterprise starts, first and foremost, with

  • a fundamental architectural shift we are seeing in the industry. And that is the movement

  • to a software-defined data center. And that software-defined data center can be delivered

  • on-premise or off-premise, known in the world as hybrid cloud computing. That's where the

  • world is going. At the same time, people want to use whatever device they want, whenever

  • they want, to get access to any application. And for IT, we gotta make sure it's very secure.

  • VMware's vision strategy and direction is around the software-defined data center, the

  • hybrid cloud and end-user computing.

  • [music]

  • >>> Carl Eschenbach: We now, with a technology like NSX and our software-defined data center

  • approach, allow you, at time of virtual machine creation, to set, simultaneously, your security

  • policy and rules at your virtual machine. As your virtual machine moves around in a

  • very fluid or liquid environment, the policies move with it.

  • [music]

  • >>> Carl Eschenbach: Virtual SAN allows all

  • of you, in your VMware environments, to take advantage of local disk and flash that you

  • have sitting there idle on your servers. Most everyone who deploys VMware environments uses

  • external arrays. Well, there's a lot of use cases like test and dev and VDI and your low-hanging

  • fruit applications that could actually run on a lower tier storage like virtual SAN,

  • right in your existing data centers, on unused capacity that you haven't tapped into at all

  • in VMware environments. If you want to go and start to leverage a technology that EMC

  • has called ViPR, which gives you storage virtualization across heterogeneous storage

  • environments, we will interface into it and the policy engine will point your virtual

  • machines to the right tier of storage that you require.

  • [music]

  • >>> Carl Eschenbach: And one thing we hear

  • often, "We don't want to get locked in." And we do not want to lock you in. In fact, we

  • announced that technologies like OpenStack, which is a framework for building clouds,

  • can run right on top of VMware's platform, and VMware will deliver it to the market.

  • At the same time, there's this emergence of something called containers. And containers

  • are really about application virtualization. And they're creeping into the enterprise to

  • allow you to very quickly spin up, if you will, new applications on top of a highly

  • virtualized environment. And it can also run on top of VWware.
