About Event

Amazon Elastic VMware Service (EVS): Your VMware Environment, Now on AWS

As VMware licensing changes and on-premises infrastructure costs continue to rise, organizations are seeking reliable and cost-effective alternatives. Amazon Elastic VMware Service (EVS) enables businesses to run VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) natively on AWS without the need to rearchitect existing environments.

With EVS, organizations can maintain the VMware tools and expertise they already rely on, including vSphere, NSX, and vSAN, while gaining the flexibility and scalability of AWS.

In This Technical Session

Join us to learn about:

  • Amazon EVS architecture and how it compares to other migration approaches
  • Real-world use cases, including data center exits, on-demand capacity, and VMware workload continuity
  • Sizing considerations, networking integration, and storage options, including FSx for NetApp ONTAP
  • Benefits such as high availability, predictable costs, faster deployment, and reduced hardware procurement timelines

Key Benefits

  • Run VMware Cloud Foundation natively on AWS
  • Preserve existing VMware skills, tools, and operational processes
  • High availability and business continuity
  • Stable and predictable infrastructure costs
  • Rapid implementation and scalability
  • Eliminate lengthy hardware procurement cycles that can take 9 to 12 months

Date: Tuesday, October 20
Time: 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM EST
