Historically, enterprises operating virtualized environments on-premises faced several issues, including high capital costs, resource consumption, and a significant amount of time spent maintaining and administering onsite servers.
Similarly, under this approach, licenses of Azure VMware Solution are typically obtained through big and long Enterprise License Agreements that are rigid and unable to grow fast to meet the ever-changing company demands.
What are VMware solutions’ dedicated services?
IBM Cloud for Azure VMware Solution’s Dedicated service is a single-tenant architecture with increased security and regulatory preparedness. You retain complete control down to the hypervisor level with bare metal access.
While no IBM Cloud-managed solution is available for now, you can get management via IBM Services or IBM Business Partners.
This dedicated option has been available since February 2016 and may be installed in over 35 data centers, with six multi-zone regions (MZRs) increasing.
