Azure VMware Solution is a VMware environment that allows users to run native VMware-based workloads on Azure. The platform includes vSphere, vCenter, vSAN, NSX-T, and other tools.

Azure VMware Solution takes care of everything for you

Here’s how Microsoft describes their VMware environment in a blog post: Connecting an on-premises VMware vSphere environment with an Azure VMware Solution private cloud will create a hybrid networking that will link VMware sites.

Hybrid networking lets you manage both Azure and VMware resources

The service then will translate bidirectional traffic between VLANs used in VMware and virtual networks used in Azure. With the services running, you can easily vMotion between VMware sites.: This allows for hybrid management, as you can manage both Azure and VMware resources using a single Azure Resource Manager template. For now, Azure VMware Solution by CloudSimple is available in East US and West US, but it will arrive soon in Western Europe and other regions in the coming months. To run your own private cloud in Azure, search for “vmware” while you’re in the Azure portal and provide the service, nodes, and virtual machines.
