VMware NSX
Speed up deployment in the data center – with virtual networks
VMware NSX is the network virtualization platform that addresses a number of IT networking, security challenges, and key business initiatives. NSX is the next-generation approach to networking and security that provides the agility and speed you need to support the business, while providing an inherently more secure infrastructure.
Features:
Moves Networking to Software
NSX moves networking to software, creating never-before-seen levels of flexibility. It fundamentally transforms the data center's network operational model like server virtualization did ten years ago.
Cuts Network Provisioning Time
NSX reduces the time to provision entire networks in software from weeks to seconds, abstracting virtual networks from the underlying physical network.
Let's You Move Workloads Seamlessly
NSX moves virtual machines and all of their associated networks and security policies between data centers in just minutes. It avoids any interruption to the running application, enabling active-active data centers and immediate disaster recovery options.
Enables Network Micro-segmentation
NSX brings security inside the data center with automated, fine-grained policies tied to the virtual machines. It enables micro-segmentation to significantly reduce the lateral spread of threats inside the data center.
Integrates with Third-Party Products
NSX provides a platform for bringing the industry's leading networking and security solutions into the SDDC. By taking advantage of tight integration with the NSX platform, third-party products can not only deploy automatically as needed, but also adapt dynamically to changing conditions in the data center.
