VMworld 2013: Session PHC4783 - How To Build Your Hybrid Cloud and Consume the Public Cloud

Are you a VMware vSphere Customer today that is on the verge of deciding to expand your current deployment or start considering vCloud Providers? Are you a start-up trying to decide how to consume the vCloud Provider public clouds as your Infrastructure as a Service, (IaaS)? These are two very common use cases for customers looking to move to a Hybrid Cloud solution with VMware vCloud Providers. This session will discuss the concepts for design of your Hybrid Cloud fully integrated into your existing vSphere and/or physical only infrastructure, or even your own private cloud. We will examine and explain some ideas in how you can better consume and expand your current datacenter capacity into one or more public cloud providers running VMware vCloud Director. You will leave the session with a better understanding of how to go out and start consuming the vCloud providers to best suit your needs to grow your capacity and connect them to your existing infrastructure. This session is ultimately about understanding how to consume the vCloud public cloud providers not building your own private cloud. What will make this session unique is it will leverage live white boarding for the majority of the session instead of just PowerPoint slides.
