EMC Outlines its Vision for the Enterprise Hybrid Cloud

EMC outlined its vision for the Enterprise Hybrid Cloud, where an IT-as-a-Service model enables seamless interconnectivity between private data centers and public clouds, including VMware vCloud Air, Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and other EMC-powered cloud service providers.  The goal is to enable IT organizations IT to support all types of workloads and move them between cloud environments as needed.

The EMC Enterprise Hybrid Cloud Solution initially integrates hardware, software and services from EMC with VMware. It can be built on VCE Vblock Systems and EMC VSPEX reference architectures for accelerated deployment. The first release is EMC Enterprise Hybrid Cloud Solution Federation Software-Defined Data Center Edition with VMware, which is now commercially available.

Next year, the company plans to extend public cloud support to include the Microsoft Cloud Platform as well as OpenStack.
