Few as Two Days"
Full Story:
EMC Corporation (NYSE: EMC) announced today the latest addition to its cloud portfolio, Native Hybrid Cloud(TM) (NHC(TM)) - a turnkey platform for cloud-native application development and deployment. As a fully integrated and engineered platform, NHC enables enterprises to innovate and scale faster. It helps enterprise IT and operations teams to better collaborate with developers, allowing for rapid application development and delivery while providing the needed protection, controls and insight to IT.
In today's dynamically changing digital economy, rapid application development and shortened release cycles are the new normal. DevOps, leveraging continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) and a more integrated operating model and culture between developers and IT, can provide a competitive edge, but shifting to DevOps is difficult without the right development platform and tools. Cloud-native platforms address this need. Cloud-native refers to a new software architecture that enables agile application development that follows cloud-native principles, a shift toward microservices versus monolithic app stacks, and embraces container infrastructure abstraction models.
Many enterprise customers have spent months - and in some cases years - trying to "build" their own cloud-native stacks, and now realize that deploying these stacks is difficult, and maintaining them after "day two" operations (update/maintain/report/support) is nearly impossible. Many have also suffered seeing multiple waves of cloud-native employees come and go, leaving unfinished pilots that were unsuitable for full production, and were not adequately designed to be supported and sustained for future evolution and growth.
Native Hybrid Cloud helps enterprises realize the promise of cloud-native applications and DevOps with an "It Just Works" experience. The platform has the following components, all validated to work together:
-- Continuous Innovation Cloud-Native Platform - Native Hybrid Cloud
leverages Pivotal Cloud Foundry®, the industry-leading cloud-native
platform. Pivotal Cloud Foundry delivers platform capabilities that
enhance developer productivity, enable operational excellence, and
provide enterprise grade security, scalability, high availability, and
operational control, so customers can accelerate their time to market
for software solutions. Developers can more quickly design, build,
deploy, and scale cloud-native applications because of the tight
integration of NHC IaaS with Pivotal Cloud Foundry. Applications built
using Pivotal Cloud Foundry are truly portable and can elastically run
on any cloud - private or public.
-- Developer and IT Ops Services - Native Hybrid Cloud brings developers a
rich set of services for deploying, scaling, and managing the
application life cycle while providing IT the visibility, control, and
financial insights by including logging, monitoring, and reporting,
showback, application performance, big data analytics, and management
and automation through open APIs. For enterprises seeking real-time
business insights, NHC offers an add-on option that produces a
comprehensive toolkit for data scientists to perform big data analytics,
delivering more differentiated value.
-- Turnkey - but flexible choices for On-Premises and Off-Premises IaaS
Options -Native Hybrid Cloud is built on the VCE® VxRack(TM) System
1000, a hyper-converged rack-scale infrastructure providing a turnkey
IaaS experience for application development, deployment, and operations.
The VxRack System allows customers to choose the cloud software stack
based on their preference: VMware vSphere with FLEX Nodes for customers
looking to leverage what they know, a turnkey OpenStack® option for
those wanting to leverage the OpenStack ecosystem with Neutrino Nodes.
In the near future, VMware Photon Platform, a cloud-native
infrastructure solution optimized for containers and modern
applications, will be supported on Neutrino Nodes, along with data
fabric options including, but not limited to the Apache Hadoop
ecosystem. VxRack System with Neutrino Nodes provides a simple
rack-scale management and orchestration capability for cloud-native IaaS
stacks, dramatically simplifying "day two" operations and scaling
infrastructure elastically to match the needs of the developers - making
what used to be complex now simple and predictable.
-- For customer deployments that require an off-premise IaaS option, EMC
Native Hybrid Cloud offers day one support for leading public clouds:
Virtustream(®) Enterprise Cloud, VMware vCloud Air, Amazon Web Services
(AWS), or Microsoft Azure.
For customers initially looking for a cloud-native IaaS system, VxRack System with Neutrino Nodes and FLEX Nodes for cloud-native IaaS is a great option because it speeds the provisioning of resources based on open source technologies to less than one hour.
For many enterprise businesses, Native Hybrid Cloud aligns closer to the agile development strategy as it delivers a turnkey developer platform for cloud-native applications.
Fully supported end-to-end by EMC, sustained as one product and deployable in days, Native Hybrid Cloud enables enterprises to significantly reduce the cost, time, complexity and uncertainty associated with building, deploying and maintaining a cloud-native solution and navigating the cultural shift to DevOps.
Delivering Cloud-Native Apps at the Speed of Business
Native Hybrid Cloud increases business agility and fosters innovation through an engineered platform that brings together infrastructure elasticity, self-healing, automated application runtime, and extended developer and IT Ops services. Key benefits include:
-- Deploy a cloud-native developer platform and infrastructure services in
as few as two days, composed of Pivotal Cloud Foundry integrated with
the EMC and VMware powered IaaS, making it ready for tailoring to a
customer environment, if desired. Native Hybrid Cloud delivers 93
percent faster time-to-code compared to a practice where customers build
a complete cloud-native platform from the ground up.
-- 3x faster time to market. Develop and deploy cloud-native applications
in days or weeks rather than months or years. Rapid application
development from idea to production as a result of the extensive
developer and IT Ops services and tools.
-- Improved DevOps collaboration. New DevOps partnerships made possible by
self-service capabilities for developers while allowing IT to retain
control and insights.
-- 2x Boost to developer productivity. Developers can self-provision
infrastructure for cloud-native application development and enjoy an "it
just works" user experience. A streamlined workflow and the ecosystem of
toolsets simplify how cloud-native applications are built, deployed, and
managed.
-- Single-call support. EMC provides single-call support for the full
solution.
-- Reduced complexity. The Native Hybrid Cloud platform is engineered,
maintained and sustained as one platform. This means that as the
software ecosystem continues to innovate, the Native Hybrid Cloud stack
continues to get updated and supported as a singular platform for the
customer.
Availability
EMC Native Hybrid Cloud with VxRack System with Neutrino Nodes and FLEX Nodes will be available starting in Q3, 2016.
