The Power of Partnership

Intel and VMware have collaborated to deliver innovative solutions since the inception of virtualization technology.

VMware and Intel provide IT organizations a path to digital transformation, delivering consistent infrastructure and consistent operations across data centers and public clouds to accelerate application speed and agility for business innovation and growth. Together, we also transform networking and security using a holistic solution across software and hardware to connect and secure applications and data wherever they reside, from data center to cloud to edge.

That means customers can advance innovation, optimize system services in real-time, deliver business agility, improve security, and lower operational costs.

SOLUTIONS

Accelerate AI Workloads on VMware vSAN Using 4th Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors with Intel® AMX — Solution Design Brief

VMware vSAN 8 includes the new Express Storage Architecture (ESA), an optional, alternative architecture that can process and store data with elevated levels of efficiency, scalability, and performance. When combined with 4th Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors, VMware vSphere and vSAN 8 software can power the most demanding workloads.

Modern Chip-to-Cloud PC Management

Intel and VMware’s integrated technologies deliver chip-to-cloud PC management and security capabilities to support today’s anywhere workforce. With a direct link between Intel vPro® powered silicon and VMware Workspace ONE® cloud-native management, IT organizations are empowered with security at the distributed edge, streamlined PC management, and intelligence-based automation. Customers can ensure their workforce stays secure and productive no matter where they choose to work.

Intel® Optane™ DC Persistent Memory

As customers are generating ever more data, they see an increasing pain point: The amount of this data and the need to analyze it ever more quickly. This requires large capacity memory within the server, as well as persistent storage. This is where Intel® Optane™ DC persistent memory really steps up because it offers the latency of memory with the persistence of storage. VMware vSphere intends to support this game-changing technology, which will increase the size and density of workloads on a single server without changing the workloads themselves.

Modernize Data Centers for IT Transformation

Surging innovations in hardware and software places IT front-and-center in the quest for rapid digital business transformation. VMware and Intel provide IT organizations a path to digital transformation, delivering consistent infrastructure and consistent operations across data centers and public clouds to accelerate application speed and agility for business innovation and growth. VMware and Intel’s solutions, built upon software-defined HCI architecture of natively integrated compute, network, and storage virtualization technologies, offer customers self-driving operations and management on industry standard Intel technology.

Transform Networking & Security

VMware and Intel transform networking and security with the Multi-Cloud Networking, a networking vision for the digital era. The Virtual Cloud Network, built on NSX technology running on Intel Architecture, provides a ubiquitous software layer across data center, cloud, edge, and other hardware infrastructure with the following characteristics:

• A cloud networking fabric - consistent connectivity from edge to edge.
• Security that is intrinsic to the infrastructure with hardware root of trust and not bolted on
• A network delivered in software for maximum agility

With this platform, customers can secure their application infrastructure wherever applications reside, fully embrace connections to the cloud, and unify their branch and edge environments across their business.
