Cloud brings the promise of quickly spinning up virtual machines and application, but network services often lag behind lacking the automation and rapid provisioning capabilities of compute. We will be discussing the benefits of enabling advanced network services in your cloud such as Server Loadbalancing, site and user VPNs, and Firewalls via Quantum's REST APIs that would enable on-demand provisioning of these services at the time of application deployment. We will also explore the benefits of using virtual appliances to deliver these services on top of standard x86 servers to reduce specialized hardware requirements for cloud build-out to decouple network service feature delivery from hardware installs, procurement, and forklift upgrades.
To conclude, we'll be showing an early integration demo previewing some of VMware's networking and security services in action through Quantum which you won't want to miss!
