One question posed with the cloud is where is the access to public and hybrid cloud services? Users want access to public and hybrid clouds and that is now a reality with vCloud connector 1.5.
What is vCloud?
This hybrid cloud tool gives companies the freedom to move workloads between private Sphere and vCloud Director environments, from their private vCloud environments to public clouds and back, or from one vCloud service provider to another.
With vCloud Connector 1.5, customers can transfer workloads between clouds more reliably and efficiently than ever. Users can also view VMs and templates across multiple clouds and perform basic operations through a new Web-based UI of vcloud.vmware.com.
