What concrete benefits does this decision bring to my organization?

If you’ve been thinking about this lately, congratulations! This note is for you because we tell you why migrate VMware to AWS It can be a strategic step to reduce costs, modernize your infrastructure, and achieve a more agile, scalable, and secure operation. But first…

What's happening with VMware environments?

For years, many companies have relied on VMware to virtualize their IT environments. However, licensing costs, physical infrastructure wear and tear and growing business needs are accelerating a key decision: Migrate to the cloud.

And AWS isn’t just a good option. For many organizations, it’s the natural path to a more flexible and cost-effective infrastructure.

Why migrate VMware to AWS?

Here are 4 reasons why more and more companies are betting on VMware Cloud on AWS with the support of a certified partner like us.

1. Reduced costs in the cloud

One of the main motivations is cost optimization.
While maintaining on-premises infrastructure requires constant investments in hardware, maintenance, and licensing, migrating to AWS allows you to adopt a pay-as-you-go model , where you only pay for the resources you actually consume. This eliminates fixed expenses and allows for better financial planning.

2. Scalability without limits (or hardware)

AWS allows you to provision resources on demand, which translates into a real ability to adapt.

Do you need to scale your operation for a peak season? Reduce capacity in quiet moments? Everything is done in minutes. You no longer need to oversize or rely on slow acquisitions.

3. Frictionless modernization

Migrating loads to AWS doesn’t mean starting from scratch, as you can actually maintain your VMware environments while accessing native AWS services such as:

  • Artificial intelligence
  • Advanced analytics
  • Databases as a Service
  • Automation and DevOps

Without a doubt, we are talking about the perfect opportunity to start modernizing your architecture progressively, without compromising operational stability.

4. High availability and guaranteed continuity

One of the key benefits of AWS as a cloud platform is its focus on high availability.Thanks to its architecture distributed in Availability Zones (AZs), you can guarantee operation even in the face of physical failures or service interruptions.
In addition, tools such as AWS CloudWatch and AWS Cost Explorer allow you to monitor and optimize your loads in real time.
