Deploy VMware Service using CADT

Updated at:

This solution is for customers who use a VMware environment in their data centers and want to continue using it on the cloud. It supports tasks such as application maintenance and scale-out without requiring changes to the application environment.

Scenarios

  • Your existing data center architecture cannot meet the demands of digital business transformation, and you need to improve cost-effectiveness, stability, and elasticity.

  • Disaster recovery: Your applications are deployed on VMware in an on-premises data center, and you use VMware Service on Alibaba Cloud for your disaster recovery site.

  • Data center scale-out: Your business growth is constrained by issues such as expiring hardware warranties or limited data center space, and you want to avoid a large, upfront investment in infrastructure.

  • Cloud migration: You want to stop maintaining an on-premises VMware data center and migrate the entire environment to the cloud.
