How to get started migrating your workloads on Google Cloud VMware Engine
Join expert Angelo Joseph, Head of Solution Engineering, Google Cloud and I as we dive into Google Cloud VMware Engine (GCVE) and how you can easily migrate VMware-based applications into the cloud.
A significant majority of our clients in Australia and NZ, implement VMware as the operating environment for their on-premise data centres. As clients transform their on-premise environments by attaching and extending them into the cloud, having an option to simply and quickly extend their VMware environment to be adjacent and highly connected to Google’s Cloud Platform (GCP), is one of the key benefits delivered by CGVE. This is especially so for clients that are also choosing GCP to modernise their environments by leveraging containers, data management and databases, smart analytics, machine learning and AI.
Our joint technical update and discussion will focus on:
- A walk-through of Google Cloud and what it can do for your company
- A deep-dive in to GCVE including use cases and a technical demonstration
- An overview of the NTT and Google Cloud partnership including how we can help you to best prepare yourself for your cloud journey from consulting, to delivery to management.
