VMware Cloud on AWS

Seamlessly migrate VMware workloads to VMware Cloud on AWS.

VMware Cloud on AWS enables IT teams to move their infrastructure to the cloud without sacrificing trusted VMware technologies for compute, storage, and network virtualization. VMware Cloud on AWS seamlessly integrates familiar VMware virtualization and cloud management tools with Amazon Web Services (AWS). VMware Cloud on AWS also supports the elasticity, security and scalability of AWS with the agility and manageability of VMware technology.

JetStream Migration for VMware Cloud on AWS

JetStream Migrate is a software solution designed specifically to enable data replication for VM Migration to the cloud. Fully compatible with VMware Cloud on AWS, JetStream Migrate works with vSphere, vCenter Server, NSX and vRealize to support efficient, seamless data replication, for a smooth migration to the VMware Cloud on AWS.

Live Migration to VMware Cloud on AWS

To enable live migration of on-premises VMs to VMware Cloud on AWS, the JetStream Migrate software runs in the on-premises Software Defined Data Center (SDDC). While applications and VMs continue to run as usual on premises, their virtual disks are copied to the VMware Cloud on AWS. Newly written data is also replicated in a parallel replication process, enabling the transition to the VMs at AWS with the least possible interruption to operations.

Optimized for VMware On Premises, and at AWS

JetStream Migrate is optimized for lightweight installation and operation in the on-premises VMware environment, installing as a VMware Installation Bundle (VIB) and supporting native cluster operations like vMotion and DRS even as data replication is under way. Based on the VMware vSphere APIs for IO Filtering (“IO Filters”) the software does not require snapshots. Data replication may be entirely over the network or via physical data transport device.

Flexible Management and Administration

JetStream Migrate supports VM migration to VMware Cloud on AWS in a variety of scenarios: automated migration of individual VMs in a continuous, orchestrated process, or administrator-supervised migration of groups of interdependent VMs in migration groups. The time required for data replication can be forecasted accurately for planning purposes, and application performance thresholds can be enforced as data is replicated.

Perfecting Cloud Migration in an Imperfect World

With JetStream Migrate, data replication to VMware Cloud on AWS is fault-tolerant, so interruptions to network connectivity replication can simply restart at the point of interruption once connectivity is re-established. The software enables seamless migration to VMware Cloud on AWS, even over low bandwidth network connections and shared networks with irregular traffic activity.
