Cloud Evolution and Business Needs

The world is moving at an unprecedented pace. Businesses must be agile, scalable, and resilient to compete in today’s environment. Legacy IT infrastructures, with their inflexibility and limitations, have become barriers to growth, unable to support the dynamic needs of modern enterprises. Cloud-first strategies offer a path to continuous innovation, operational efficiency, and faster time-to-market.

For many enterprises, VMware forms the backbone of their IT operations. Its virtualisation technologies underpin mission-critical workloads, making migration to the cloud a high-stakes endeavour. Transitioning these VMware workloads requires a solution that combines modernisation with continuity.

Why Google Cloud and VMware?

The synergy between Google Cloud and VMware—through Google Cloud VMware Engine (GCVE)—provides businesses with a platform to modernise without disruption. GCVE enables enterprises to run VMware workloads natively in Google Cloud, retaining familiar operational practices while accessing advanced tools for analytics, scalability, and disaster recovery.

The Partnership

The partnership between Google Cloud and VMware—through GCVE—enables businesses to extend their on-premises VMware environments into Google Cloud without re-architecting applications. This integration supports operational consistency while unlocking the potential of Google Cloud’s AI, analytics, and global network infrastructure.
