Hands-on-Lab: Google Cloud VMware Engine Overview – VMware Cloud Community


To support their applications’ complex needs, organizations are moving to the public cloud to achieve greater scale and agility, lower TCO, and develop new cloud-native services and applications to support their customers. Google Cloud VMware Engine allows organizations to accelerate their cloud journey by providing a seamless pathway for mission-critical workloads that run on VMware on-premises to the public cloud.

Google Cloud VMware Engine runs on a fully managed, native VMware Cloud Foundation software stack allowing customers to leverage existing expertise with VMware technologies without the hassles of learning new skills or utilizing new tools.  With the same architecture and operational experience on-premises and in the cloud, IT teams can quickly derive  business value, develop new applications, and unlock new capabilities and insights from their data by connecting to native Google Cloud Platform services.
