Partners—VMware NSX Software Defined Networking
VMware NSX™ embeds networking and security functionality that is typically handled in hardware directly into the hypervisor. The VMware NSX™ network virtualization platform fundamentally transforms the data center’s network operational model like server virtualization did 10 years ago, and is helping thousands of customers realize the full potential of an SDDC. VMware NSX™ enables the creation of entire networks in software and embeds them in the hypervisor layer, abstracted from the underlying physical hardware. All network components can be provisioned in minutes, without the need to modify the application. The provisioning and configuration management of IT applications and services is often a manual, slow, error prone and inconsistent exercise. It can result in critical security and operational bottlenecks for the business and puts an organization at a competitive disadvantage. These challenges extend to networking and security, the last major pillar of the data center that has been lacking automation capabilities that truly remedy the shortcomings of legacy approaches. VMware NSX™ is the network virtualization platform that enables the automation of networking and security services.
With VMware NSX™, you can reproduce in software your entire networking environment. VMware NSX™ provides a complete set of logical networking elements and services including logical switching, routing, firewalling, load balancing, VPN, QoS, and monitoring. Virtual networks are programmatically provisioned and managed independent of the underlying hardware. Already have VMware NSX™? Find out how VMware vRealize Network Insight™ can help you manage and scale your deployment with great efficiency. VMware NSX™ embeds security functions right into the hypervisor. It delivers microsegmentation and granular security to the individual workload, enabling a fundamentally more secure data center. Security policies travel with the workloads, independent of where workloads are in the network topology. VMware NSX™ lets you treat your physical network as a pool of transport capacity, with network and security services attached to workloads using a policy driven approach. This automates networking operations and eliminates bottlenecks associated with hardware—based networks. With VMware NSX™ you can move workloads from one data center to another, or deploy them into a hybrid cloud environment.
Application Continuity
Move workloads from one data center to another, or deploy them into a hybrid cloud environment. Connecting multiple data centers together has been a challenging and expensive proposition. As a result, application availability and agility has suffered. VMware NSX™ solves this problem by abstracting network functions from the underlying physical hardware and running them in software. With the network running entirely in software, disaster recovery becomes simple. Hardware changes or manual configurations are not required in a disaster recovery event, dramatically improving your Recovery Time Objective and reducing the associated costs. By using VMware NSX™ to extend the network across data centers and to the public cloud, businesses can deploy applications anywhere and move them seamlessly, independent of geographic boundaries. VMware NSX™ Standard Edition Automates IT workflows, bringing agility to the data center network and reducing network operating costs and complexity. VMware NSX™ Advanced Edition Standard Edition plus a fundamentally more secure data center with microsegmentation.
VMware NSX
Applications and data can reside and be accessible anywhere. Cuts network provisioning time, VMware NSX™ reduces the time to provision entire networks in software from weeks to seconds. It abstracts virtual networks from the underlying physical network, providing the flexibility to run on top of any network hardware. With improved operational efficiency through automation, network operators can achieve faster deployment and greater agility. Enables network micro segmentation. VMware NSX™ brings security inside the data center with automated, fine grained policies tied to the virtual machines. It enables micro segmentation to significantly reduce the lateral spread of threats inside the data center. VMware NSX™ embeds security functions right into the hypervisor. It delivers micro segmentation and granular security to the individual workload, enabling a fundamentally more secure data center. Security policies travel with the workloads, independent of where workloads are in the network topology. By making network micro segmentation operationally feasible, VMware NSX™ brings an inherently better security model to the data center. Lets you move workloads seamlessly.
Automation
VMware NSX™ lets you treat your physical network as a pool of transport capacity, with network and security services attached to workloads using a policy driven approach. This automates networking operations and eliminates bottlenecks associated with hardware based networks. The provisioning and configuration management of IT applications and services is often a manual, slow, error prone and inconsistent exercise. It can result in critical security and operational bottlenecks for the business and puts an organization at a competitive disadvantage. These challenges extend to networking and security, the last major pillar of the data center that has been lacking automation capabilities that truly remedy the shortcomings of legacy approaches. VMware NSX™ is the network virtualization platform that enables the automation of networking and security services. VMware NSX™ gives IT organizations speed and security through standardization and consistency. VMware NSX™moves virtual machines and all of their associated networks and security policies between data centers in just minutes. It avoids any interruption to the running application, enabling active active data centers and immediate disaster recovery options.
