Kyndryl (NYSE: KD), the world’s largest IT infrastructure
services provider, today announced it has become a VMware
Cross-Cloud Managed Services Provider. Kyndryl has achieved the
VMware Managed Services Specialization and has completed a
Validated Service Offering (VSO) for VMware Cloud on AWS. Through
this expanded collaboration, Kyndryl and VMware are committed to
providing customers peace of mind to focus on their strengths and
innovate their businesses, while knowing that their application and
infrastructure modernization needs are supported by a trusted
managed services provider.
Managed VMware Cloud on AWS services enable Kyndryl to support
customers’ modernization initiatives with a VMware Cloud Foundation
environment that is fully consistent across on-premises data
centers and AWS. Kyndryl is also working to create a VMware
Cross-Cloud managed service based on VMware Cloud editions to help
customers to lower total cost of ownership for on-premises
environments, simplify operations, reduce risk with observability,
actionable insight, and performance optimization, and accelerate
cloud migrations.
With VMware Cross-Cloud managed services, Kyndryl will
demonstrate it has the capabilities and expertise to help customers
with a VMware footprint to build, implement, migrate, modernize and
manage their hybrid cloud capabilities.
“VMware and Kyndryl have proven success in helping our mutual
clients to accelerate IT and business reinvention,” said Abhay
Kumar, Vice President of Hyperscaler and Technology Partners,
VMware. “The combination of VMware Cross-Cloud managed services and
proven Kyndryl design, build, and managed services can unlock the
untapped potential of multi-cloud for organizations of all
sizes.”
“With large and complex IT estates across clouds becoming
increasingly challenging to manage, IT leaders want to be more
efficient, intuitive and sustainable—but often do not know where to
start,” said Harish Grama, Global Cloud Practice Leader, Kyndryl.
“These certifications and our hyperscaler partnerships will help
Kyndryl meet our customers where they are on their IT modernization
journey in a hybrid cloud environment. We will continue to
strengthen and broaden our relationship with VMware and our ability
to jointly support our customers as they modernize their technology
landscape.”
Kyndryl and VMware have been strategic partners since 2021,
collaborating to help customers enhance their digital innovation
and business modernization projects with enterprise control.
