For a long time, networks have worked really well. However, in recent years that began to change. First, the cloud migrated to multi-cloud, a move from all on-prem followed by a move to hybrid. Then remote work gained importance, with the last nine months or so really pushing it up to the forefront of issues that need addressing. The network of a couple of decades ago can no longer address these issues and needs to be changed.
VMware Virtual Cloud Network, as the name implies, is a virtual networking solution, the only complete Layer 2-7 network. It delivers and distributes all networking services in software over a diverse set of underlay transport including broadband, 4G/LTE, MPLS, dedicated internet access, and emerging 5G. The company currently has over 18,000 virtual cloud network customers including 91 of the Fortune 100. Today they are delivering the next wave.
The innovations announced today focus on three key areas: automation that enables the public cloud experience; modern application connectivity and security services; and solutions that reimagine what’s possible in network security.
