Azure VMware Solution Lands in Korea Central
Microsoft just expanded its Azure VMware Solution (AVS) to Korea Central. This brings the total Azure regions offering AVS to 34 worldwide. If you’re running VMware workloads and eyeing cloud migration, this is a big deal.
What’s New with Azure VMware Solution?
AVS lets you move or extend your VMware workloads to Azure without re-architecting apps or changing operations. It’s designed to reduce cost, effort, and risk during migration. Now, Korea Central users can tap into this seamless cloud experience.
Microsoft’s AVS includes the full VMware technology stack. Plus, you can use your existing Microsoft licenses for Windows Server and SQL Server. This means more savings and easier integration.
Major Updates and Benefits
One standout update is the VMware Rapid Migration Plan. Microsoft offers licensing perks and discounts, including a 20% price cut, to smooth your move to AVS. It’s a smart way to protect your budget while modernizing infrastructure.
AVS supports:
- Rapid migration of VMware workloads without refactoring
- Datacenter exit while keeping VMware operations consistent
- Business continuity and disaster recovery for on-prem VMware
- Access to Azure services to innovate at your own pace
Why This Matters for VMware Users
Moving to the cloud often means complex retooling. AVS cuts through that by allowing VMware customers to keep their familiar environment intact. This reduces downtime and operational headaches.
