CloudSimple provides a service to the world’s leading cloud vendors to deploy and manage workloads in a dedicated, private cloud in public clouds. With the full support of Microsoft and VMware, the first offering is a service for VMware. We help enterprises looking to move VMware workloads to the cloud without any changes and continue to use the familiar VMware and cloud management tools they know. IT benefits from the agility and on-demand, elastic infrastructure of the cloud, as well as lowered costs. CloudSimple provides the management, networking, operating platform and the backend infrastructure operations required to run native VMware vSphere, vSAN and NSX-T platforms at scale in a public cloud. You can provision, manage and expand a highly available, dedicated cloud on demand that is isolated, yet enables high speed access to the latest cloud service innovations. The service is 100% compatible with all VMware ecosystem tools. It uniquely unifies management of your dedicated and public VMs within the familiar cloud management portal. The result is a VMware-as-a-Service dedicated cloud that can be spun up and provisioned in minutes—without rearchitecting a single app.
