2018: Technologies at the heart of VMware Powered Public Cloud platforms
According to information as of January 2018, public cloud platforms based on VMware products (or VMware Powered Public Cloud platforms) are based on the same technology used in VMware public cloud - VMware vCloud Air. This enables the provider to offer its customers complete and secure multi-leases with unprecedented efficiency, security, performance, and scalability.
A public cloud based on VMware technologies is usually built on the following basic principles:
- The cloud service must be built on VMware vSphere and VMware vCloud Director.
- vCloud APIs should be available to cloud tenants.
- Cloud tenants should be able to download and download virtual workloads packaged in Open Virtualization Format (OVF) version 1.0.[1]
