Moving VMware workloads from on-premises environments to the public cloud, often requires replatforming or rearchitecting applications, while introducing cost and IT operational efficiency challenges.

BlueXP lets you centrally provision and manage a hybrid multicloud storage infrastructure that reduces the total cost of ownership for VMware environments by decoupling storage from compute and enabling seamless migration and data protection across the data estate.

Migrate VMware workloads anywhere

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

Establish multi-layered data protection

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
