Introducing VMware 
vRealize™ Suite 
Purpose Built for the Hybrid Cloud
2 
Cloud computing provides tremendous competitive advantages to companies, but 
it also puts enormous pressure on IT departments. vRealize Suite, VMware’s new cloud 
management platform, is an entirely new way of extending datacenter to hybrid cloud 
with a unified management experience, offering: 
• Automation – Automate the delivery and lifecycle management of infrastructure 
and application services 
• Intelligent operations – Proactively manage performance, capacity, compliance, and logs 
• Business insight – Align IT spending with business priorities by obtaining full cost 
transparency 
• Unified management – Use a single platform to provision and manage applications and 
infrastructure on-site and in the cloud 
Overview: 
Realizing the 
Full Power of 
the Cloud

Pressure 
Building In the 
Cloud 
Cloud computing -- which lets LOBs get apps up and running at the swipe of a credit 
card -- has revealed inefficiencies in the way some IT organizations operate. 
Common Complaints 
Lack of agility 
Lack of cost transparency 
Overspending 
Not using Hybrid Clouds 
Root Causes 
Cross-silo processes 
Complex cost models 
Unused resources not reclaimed 
No common cloud management
4 
Tension Growing 
Between IT and 
the Business 
Technology disconnects cause clashes between IT and business leaders. 
IT Business leaders 
• Too Costly 
• Too Slow 
• Wrong Priorities 
• Shadow IT 
• Compliance Concerns 
• Integration Overload
5 
Broken Cloud 
Deployment 
Process 
Enterprises may be saddled with 50 to 100 software tools to 
manage infrastructure and IT service delivery—it is difficult 
for tools (or admins) to exchange vital information. This can 
lead to confusion. 
Fabric Admin 
What’s the right 
tier of storage (gold/ 
silver/bronze) based 
on SLAs? 
Cloud Admin 
Is a private or public 
cloud more effective? 
Business 
Stakeholder 
Will the app SLA be met? 
Server Admin 
What resource pool 
does each app need? 
Operations Admin 
How do I resolve capacity 
shortfalls with no visibility 
into SLA requirements? 
Result: Higher costs and long delays in implementing and managing infrastructure.

Welcome to the brave new hybrid and heterogeneous world 
where IT’s mandate is to take control in four key ways: 
1. Deploy and manage workloads both on-site and in public clouds 
2. Manage workloads across physical and virtual environments 
3. Assure service quality, security and compliance 
4. Optimize cost efficiency
8 
The Future 
is Now 
Enter vRealize Suite, a new cloud management platform enabling IT to meet 
the demands of a hybrid-cloud era: 
• Deliver the most appropriate cloud services at low cost 
• Converge IT Silos (Storage, Network, App MW, Security, Ops) 
• Provide unified management across private, public and hybrid clouds 
• Shift to the OpEx-friendly, SaaS delivery model
9 
The Sum of 
the Parts is 
Greater Than 
the Whole 
vRealize Suite aggregates best-of-breed capabilities to meet the far-ranging needs of 
both IT and business departments including: 
Product 
vRealize™ Automation 
vRealize™ Operations 
vRealize™ Log Insight™ 
vRealize™ Business™ 
Function 
Automate the delivery of 
infrastructure and application services 
Automate operations management, 
including performance, capacity and 
configuration management 
Real-time log management 
across physical, virtual and 
cloud environments 
Get transparency and control over 
the costs/quality of IT services 
Benefit 
Business agility; right-size 
app/resources; reclaim 
inactive resources 
Holistic view of infrastructure 
and applications; proactively 
avoid performance issues; 
enable optimal resource usage 
Proactively identify and resolve 
problems faster with intelligent 
operations across all machine 
generated data 
Control/optimize IT budget; 
align IT with business priorities
10 
Matching 
Third-Party Cloud 
Providers 
vRealize Suite provides the same speed, agility and cost efficiencies that business 
units experience with third-party cloud providers. 
Automation With 
Control 
Extensible Framework 
Intelligent Operations 
Unified Management 
Business Insight
End the 
Frustration 
Between IT and 
the Business 
11 
By expanding on the capabilities of these four products, vRealize Suite moves 
the concept of a cloud management platform into a new technology terrain that 
accommodates the needs of both IT and the business: 
• Agility and speed — gain competitive business advantage 
• Control and efficiency — manage uptime, performance, security and compliance 
while reducing costs 
• Cost efficiency — get an accurate assessment of service costs and 
cost reduction opportunities
Automation 
12 
Deliver infrastructure and applications across multiple hypervisors, private 
and public cloud with both speed and control. 
• Self-service provisioning of apps, infrastructure and custom IT services 
• Design once, deploy in any approved cloud environment 
• End-to-end application lifecycle management 
• Intelligent resource management 
• Policy-based governance
Intelligent 
Operations 
13 
Manage infrastructure and applications in 
physical, virtual, and cloud environments 
with integrated capacity, performance, 
log, and configuration management.

• App-to-storage visibility across physical, virtual and cloud environments 
• Predictive analytics and Smart Alerts proactively identify and remediate issues 
• Log management extends analytics to unstructured data, for faster problem resolution 
• Capacity management capabilities easily identify and right-size over- and 
under-provisioned VMs to maximize resource utilization 
• Policy-based automation of key IT processes and compliance standards empowers 
admins and optimizes IT staff efficiency
Business Insight 
14 
Align IT spending with business 
priorities by getting full transparency 
of infrastructure and application cost 
and service quality. 
• Demonstrate and compare costs of complex IT initiatives 
• Cost transparency, usage metering, show and charge back 
• Benchmarking compares the service delivery cost across multiple public cloud 
services, as well as benchmarks against a population of other IT organizations. 
• Usage Metering uses comprehensive cost models of IT services for use in 
dashboards, reports, and “bill of IT” 
• Vendor Management sets, tracks, reports, and analyzes IT performance and 
value measures for all services and vendors
Unified 
Management 
15 
Use a common set of tools across private and public clouds with a consistent 
management experience and fast time to value 
• Integrated platform delivers shared services across automation, operations, 
and business functions 
• Use a single and extensible platform to provision and manage applications 
and infrastructure on-site and in the cloud 
• Open Interface exposes shared services through application program interface 
(API), command line interface (CLI) and user interface (UI) 
• Leverage out of the box integrations with major public cloud vendors such as 
vCloud Air, Amazon Web Services 
• Partner Ecosystem offers a wide range of partner solutions that are optimized 
to work with vRealize Suite
