VMware launches new products to automate IT service delivery and business continuity

VMware has launched four new virtual machine management products that it says bring “unprecedented automation of IT service delivery and business continuity to the data center”. These products extend the VMware virtualization platform by automating previously error-prone, slow and manual processes.

VMware's new products leverage virtual machines to automate the steps of the IT service delivery and business continuity processes, eliminating repetitive, rote tasks and minimizing the margin for error. The result can be scalable, repeatable and efficient IT processes.

VMware is introducing three IT service delivery products: VMware Lifecycle Manager, VMware Lab Manager and VMware Stage Manager. Each product extends the VMware Infrastructure platform and uses virtual machines and VMware VMotion to enable automation throughout the entire lifecycle of service delivery.

For business continuity, VMware has developed VMware Site Recovery Manager, which can make disaster recovery more rapid, reliable, and manageable. VMware Site Recovery Manager delivers centralized management of recovery plans, automates the recovery process, and enables dramatically better testing of recovery plans.
