Blog: Managing modern applications

How can IT infrastructure support work with modern Cloud Native applications, and how can a Multicloud environment be effectively managed?

Today’s modern applications, developed in a microservice way, are being created, tested and adapted even faster, to ensure their secure use.

The use of containers has facilitated the launch of distributed microservice applications in Multicloud production environments, with automatic allocation of the necessary infrastructural resources.

It has been estimated that in the next two years, 85% of all applications will use containerisation technology (Source: VMware Market Insights Report, 2021)

Modern IT infrastructure

Modern infrastructure solutions are improving cooperation between application development teams and IT infrastructure units.

Programmers now have greater productivity and a faster path from application development to production, while infrastructural engineers are able to build software-defined, scalable and secure platforms to support key applications.

Kubernetes is a portable and scalable open-source platform for managing container environments and services, enabling a declarative configuration and automation.

The VMware Tanzu platform contains a collection of tools based on Kubernetes, with additional capabilities for management, automation, security and supervision of infrastructure services and applications.

VMware Tanzu is a modular platform that can be launched and overseen at any data centre, and private or public cloud.

How is VMware Tanzu improving working with modern applications?

Effective management

VMware Tanzu manages applications through their development, testing, release, and maintenance.

High application accessibility

Through application containerisation, VMware Tanzu enables high accessibility by automatically allocating the available infrastructure resources.

High mobility

Containers include all necessary components for launching applications, such as the program code and accompanying files. They are compatible with a range of operating system, and through the VMware Tanzu platform, they can simply be used in various environments.

Optimal resource use

Containers require less infrastructure resources as they share operating systems on the virtual servers they use. VMware Tanzu optimally allocates the necessary resources, and these are most often virtual servers so as to take maximum advantage of software-defined solutions.

VMware Tanzu Application Platform

The VMware Tanzu Application Platform is an end-to-end integrated platform solution that enables companies to more quickly build and implement software in a secure way, using a wide collection of tools for development programmes and predefined production paths.
