Amazon EVS explained: Run your VMware workloads on AWS | Amazon Web Services
Wondering whether cloud migration means leaving your VMware tools behind? This video shows how Amazon Elastic VMware Service runs VMware Cloud Foundation directly in your Amazon VPC, so you move to the cloud without refactoring or retraining. Watch the video to see how. An AWS Cloud solutions provider, Solvix Solutions LLC is available to guide you every step of the way.
What is Amazon Elastic VMware Service (Amazon EVS)?
Amazon Elastic VMware Service (Amazon EVS) lets you run VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) directly inside your Amazon VPC. In practice, that means you can bring your existing VMware tools, processes, and skills to AWS without changing your applications.
With Amazon EVS you can:
- Run your familiar VMware stack on AWS infrastructure
- Use your current VMware skills and software investments
- Avoid replatforming or refactoring your workloads just to move them to the cloud
It’s designed to help you extend or move your VMware environment into AWS while keeping your operational model consistent.
How does Amazon EVS help extend my data center to AWS?
Amazon EVS is built to extend and expand your current VMware environment into AWS with minimal disruption.
Key ways it helps:
- Consistent operations: You keep using the VMware tools and workflows you already know, now running on AWS infrastructure.
- No major app changes: You can move workloads without replatforming or refactoring, which helps reduce migration effort and risk.
- Cloud scale and agility: Once on AWS, you can tap into AWS elasticity to scale capacity up or down as needed, and integrate with other AWS services over time.
In short, Amazon EVS lets you reimagine your VMware footprint as a hybrid or cloud-based environment, while maintaining continuity for your teams and applications.
Do I have to manage Amazon EVS myself?
With Amazon EVS, you can choose how much management responsibility you want to keep in-house:
- Self-managed: Your team manages the VMware environment running on AWS, similar to how you manage VMware today, but using AWS infrastructure.
- Partner-managed: You can work with AWS Partners who provide a managed experience, handling day-to-day operations so your team can focus more on applications and business outcomes.
This flexibility lets you reshape your operating model at your own pace—either retaining full control or leaning on experienced partners in the AWS Partner Network.
