In my opinion, it\u2019s a great offering. It allows you to take existing virtual machines and migrate those up to the cloud so that you can manage everything with your existing virtual center. It\u2019s also a very good option to do disaster recovery.<\/p>\n<p>I worked on a project recently where the client wanted to know what they needed to do with their infrastructure. They were looking for solid options to build a foundation for their business, whether it was on-prem, a cloud-based offering, or a hybrid approach.<\/p>\n<p>In this project, we ended up taking their VMs and physical servers and put a brand new host on site running VMware that\u2019s running a domain controller and a file server. We put the rest of the production servers and test dev environment in vCloud Air. Additionally, this helped them address their disaster recovery needs. It gave them a place where they could take their systems without a lot of upfront money and have a place where they could recover their VMs in case of the event of a disaster.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"color: #1f497d;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=OP3qO-SI6SY\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Calibri; font-size: medium;\"><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=OP3qO-SI6SY&#038;fmt=18\">http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=OP3qO-SI6SY<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Are you interested in learning more about vCloud Air? <a href=\"mailto:socialmedia@greenpages.com\" >Reach out<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>By Chris Chesley, Solutions Architect<\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/JourneyToTheCloud?a=WmBnymiBH18:KFzO6LLo5I0:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/JourneyToTheCloud?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/JourneyToTheCloud?a=WmBnymiBH18:KFzO6LLo5I0:-BTjWOF_DHI\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/JourneyToTheCloud?i=WmBnymiBH18:KFzO6LLo5I0:-BTjWOF_DHI\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/JourneyToTheCloud?a=WmBnymiBH18:KFzO6LLo5I0:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/JourneyToTheCloud?i=WmBnymiBH18:KFzO6LLo5I0:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/JourneyToTheCloud?a=WmBnymiBH18:KFzO6LLo5I0:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/JourneyToTheCloud?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/JourneyToTheCloud\/~4\/WmBnymiBH18\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As you most likely know, vCloud Air is VMware&rsquo;s offering in the hybrid\/public cloud space.
