The digital world is moving fast, and local businesses are looking to simplify their IT infrastructure while saving money. Migrating your VMware system to Google Cloud VMware Engine (GCVE) is the solution to modernize your infrastructure, be more agile and take advantage of the power of the cloud.
with GCVE, you modernize your VMware system without disrupting everything. You simply move the applications to the cloud, without any headache. It's less risky and less disruptive to your business. You benefit from the latest Google Cloud technologies while keeping your VMware software.
GCVE means scalability on demand. You adjust the power of your IT according to your needs, perfect for managing rush periods or rapid growth. You can add or remove resources in minutes, to quickly seize opportunities.
By switching to GCVE, you say goodbye to hardware (CAPEX), maintenance and update costs. Google Cloud's pricing model for VMware is more advantageous, with a single price (license + compute) compared to Broadcom's new license billing method (VCF), which is based solely on the number of CPU 'cores' per year (350$ USD). Also, the new GCVE (VCF) offering is 14% cheaper than the legacy GCVE pricing.
Google Cloud leads the industry in security and compliance. By running GCVE (Google Cloud VMware Engine) on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), you not only safeguard your sensitive data and critical applications with state-of-the-art infrastructure but also gain the ability to plan and execute a comprehensive disaster recovery strategy for your on-premise VMware environment. This empowers you to seamlessly migrate workloads to the cloud in case of emergencies, ensuring business continuity. Moreover, Google Cloud provides specialized tools to help you adhere to industry-specific regulations and standards.
GCVE opens the door to a whole range of Google Cloud services: data analytics, artificial intelligence, machine learning... You can easily integrate them into your VMware applications to improve your products, optimize your processes and create value for your customers.
To sum up, transitioning to VMware on Google Cloud (GCVE) offers numerous benefits for Quebec companies. It allows you to update your infrastructure, increase flexibility, cut expenses, enhance security, and accelerate innovation. If you are already utilizing VMware, GCVE may serve as the solution to unlocking your capabilities and achieving greater success, all while ensuring your data remains within the country.
