VMware

Create and manage all ONTAP-based storage solutions serving your VMware workloads, across on-premises and cloud, through a centralized and unified console

• Provision and operate cloud-native storage for VMware external supplemental datastores and guest-connected shared storage for VMs
• Deploy and manage Cloud Volumes ONTAP for guest-connected and shared storage for VMs on any cloud
• Discover and manage on-premises ONTAP clusters, running VMware workloads

Move VMware datastores, virtual machines, and shared application data across the data estate so you can run VMware workloads the way you want

• Use end-to-end migration orchestration, to bring VMware datastores and VMs from on-prem ONTAP clusters to the cloud, by leveraging FSx for ONTAP, Azure NetApp Files, and Cloud Volumes Service
• Replicate guest-connected volumes and shares from on-premises ONTAP clusters to FSx for ONTAP and Cloud Volumes ONTAP
• Copy VMware data residing on NFS and SMB shares to any ONTAP-based storage in the public cloud

Implement a robust disaster recovery strategy across your VMware environments, ensuring your business-critical applications are rapidly restored in the event of a major outage

• Get end-to-end disaster recovery orchestration to protect VMware datastores and VMs stored in on-premises ONTAP clusters, leveraging FSx for ONTAP and VMware Cloud on AWS
• Create secure, cost-efficient, and highly durable remote backups for VMware datastores and guest-connected shares in on-premises ONTAP clusters 
• Create and maintain DR copies of guest-connected volumes and shares, stored in on-premises ONTAP clusters, on FSx for ONTAP, and Cloud Volumes ONTAP

Enable real-time monitoring and analytics for complete visibility into your VMware infrastructure, applications, and data 

• Get performance metrics and inventory information about your VMware environments, workloads, and ONTAP-based storage 
• Use dynamic topology and correlation analysis for immediate troubleshooting 
• Scan and classify VMware datastores and VMs shared storage for enhanced data governance and privacy 

Align with application storage and performance requirements, while maintaining VMware best practices and reducing costs
