Azure VMware Solution

Azure VMware Solution

AVS enables the seamless extension of your existing VMware environments to Azure

Azure VMware Solution (AVS) is a strategic collaboration between Microsoft and VMware, bringing VMware’s enterprise-class software-defined data center (SDDC) to the Azure cloud.

With Azure VMware Solution, you get a consistent VMware solution infrastructure within Azure. Your team can use familiar VMware processes, skills, and tools like VMware vSphere, VMware HCX, and VMware NSX-T Data Center.

Symmetry with On-Premises Environments

The service offers symmetry with on-premises environments, which accelerates datacenter migrations. This means you can recognise the benefits of the cloud sooner when migrating existing VMware Private Clouds to Azure.

Azure VMware Solution is based on VMware Cloud Foundation technologies and runs on VMware-validated Azure infrastructure. Azure provides a fully managed platform with robust tools and capabilities to meet application development needs—from migrations to legacy application modernisations to building new cloud-native applications.

Discover how Azure VMware Solution can enhance your on-premises infrastructure, applications and data on Azure. With the flexibility of AVS, you can move to the cloud on your terms, choosing which workloads to migrate and determining the right time for your migration.
