Today, AWS announces the preview of Amazon Elastic VMware Service (Amazon EVS). Amazon EVS is a new, native AWS service to run VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) within your Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC).
Amazon EVS automates and simplifies deployments and provides a ready-to-use VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) environment on AWS. This allows you to quickly migrate VMware-based virtual machines to AWS using the same VCF software and tools you already use in your on-premises environment.
With Amazon EVS, you can now take advantage of the scale, resilience, and performance of AWS together with familiar VCF software and tools. You have the choice to self-manage or leverage AWS Partners to manage and operate your EVS deployments. With this, you keep complete control over your VMware architecture and can optimize your deployments to meet the unique demands of your applications. Amazon EVS provides the fastest path to migrate and operate VMware workloads on AWS.
Amazon EVS is currently available in preview for pre-selected customers and partners. To learn more about Amazon EVS and how it can help accelerate your VMware workload migration to AWS, visit the Amazon EVS product page or contact us.
