(firmenpresse) - SANTA BARBARA, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 12/10/13 -- RightScale® Inc., a demonstrated leader in, today announced the RightScale Cloud Appliance for vSphere that integrates RightScale Cloud Portfolio Management and the VMware vSphere® virtualization platform.
RightScale users will be able to leverage RightScale Cloud Portfolio Management to manage vSphere resources through a new, lightweight, on-premise RightScale virtual appliance.
With the RightScale Cloud Appliance for vSphere, IT teams can choose whether to deploy workloads to VMware vSphere or any of the leading public or private clouds already supported by RightScale, and will be able to create portable workloads that can move seamlessly between cloud environments and VMware vSphere. Using RightScale, enterprises reduce vendor lock-in and enable infrastructure teams to manage cloud-based workloads from a single pane of glass.
"Our enterprise customers want to combine public and private cloud resources with their existing vSphere environments to expand cloud adoption," said Thorsten von Eicken, RightScale CTO and co-founder.

Benefits of using the RightScale Cloud Appliance for vSphere include:
Using RightScale, enterprises can enable infrastructure teams to manage cloud-based workloads -- including major public clouds, vSphere environments, and OpenStack and CloudStack-based clouds -- from a single pane of glass.
Cloud environments offer additional capabilities that go beyond the functionality of virtualized environments like vSphere. The RightScale Cloud Appliance adds cloud-like capabilities that expand and streamline access to vSphere. The appliance provides multi-tenancy governance on top of vSphere to allow automated, policy-based sharing of vSphere resource pools by multiple tenants. It also adds standardized instance types to enable developers to quickly pick from a preconfigured set of infrastructure options.
: vSphere environments have traditionally been controlled, configured, and managed by IT. With the RightScale Cloud Appliance, new types of users such as application developers, software architects, and DevOps teams will be able to leverage RightScale to deploy and move workloads across cloud and vSphere environments according to the policies set by IT teams.
RightScale does not lock users into one management solution. Users can leverage RightScale Cloud Portfolio Management and VMware® vCenter Server™ in parallel. For example, developers can leverage RightScale to deploy workloads in vSphere, while VMware administrators can leverage vCenter.
RightScale ServerTemplates™ are dynamic configuration scripts. They provide portability for workloads across vSphere environments and public and private clouds.
: With RightScale Cloud Analytics users can visualize usage and spending across vSphere data centers as well as other clouds.
: RightScale experts can help enterprises deploy and optimize application portfolios across vSphere virtualized environments as well as public and private clouds.
