VMC on AWS: The Key to Hybrid Cloud Success for Singapore Businesses
In a world where business agility has become the name of the game, the cloud revolution is taking centre stage.
In Singapore, the challenge can be a little more complicated than in neighbouring countries, with strict data sovereignty laws meaning any cloud initiative has to happen via providers that invest in the cloud in Singapore.
AsiaPac Technology is serving the needs of Singaporean companies by partnering with VMware and AWS to enable Singaporean enterprises to embrace the most modern and effective hybrid cloud models.
Today’s hybrid cloud delivers the ability to scale operations by combining the stability of their existing on-premises data centres with the flexibility of the cloud. This seamless fusion of physical and virtual infrastructure has become a key driving force in the pursuit of innovation and rapid growth.
Singapore’s businesses, in their bid to stay ahead of the curve, are grappling with the challenge of scaling their IT infrastructure to accommodate their expanding operations. Traditional on-premises data centres can be a hindrance to growth, given their physical constraints and the need for costly investments in additional server rooms or data centres.
Boston Consulting Group and Amazon Web Services found that 70% of Asia-Pacific organisations believe the cloud can boost innovation and reduce operational risks. This acknowledgement has spurred cloud adoption, with IT budgets committed to the cloud expected to reach 10% by 2023, expanding at 25% compound annually. However, cost and application re-architecture concerns keep businesses from moving to the cloud.
For companies trying to extend their IT infrastructure without breaking the bank, the hybrid cloud approach offers promise. VMC on AWS, a VMware-backed cloud platform, lets Singapore-based companies extend their on-premises data centres and activate secondary or disaster recovery locations. Companies may use the cloud’s operational and economic benefits while keeping control over their physical infrastructure.
The advantage of VMC on AWS lies in its ability to minimise the need for re-architecting applications and reskilling staff. Since most businesses are already using VMware on-premises, migrating to VMC on AWS is a natural extension of their existing infrastructure. This familiarity allows for a smooth transition, reducing the learning curve and enabling seamless integration of on-premises and cloud environments.
