VMware Inc, a California-based cloud and virtualization software provider, sees huge potential in China's fast-developing cloud computing market and plans to triple or quadruple its Chinese investment by 2020.
The company announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with Chinac.com, a local leader in public cloud services to expand such software in China.
"We are committed to the growth potential of the China market. As local enterprises look to transform themselves digitally to innovate, bring new products to market in a shorter space of time and stay competitive, we will continue to actively pursue local partnerships," said Bernard Kwok, VMware vice president and president of Greater China.
Kwok is introducing the virtualization technologies into the Chinese market, as well as making products tailored for Chinese clients. It says its R&D center also contributes a lot to its business growth.
By collaborating with VMware in the local cloud market, Chinac.com will grant VMware customers easy access to public clouds and accelerate the adoption of VMware vCloud Air Network solutions.
Through a wide range of VMware-based cloud services across China, VMware service providers can now offer hybrid cloud services that quickly and seamlessly extend a customer's data center into the cloud using the same VMware products and tools that are already being deployed on premise.
VMware announced new cross-cloud architecture, which enables customers to run, manage, connect, and secure their applications across clouds and devices in a common operating environment at VMworld 2016. It also carried out partnership with IBM Corp to expand to enable easy hybrid cloud adoption.
