One of the VMworld 2014 related announcements that is still working it’s way thru everyone’s lexicon and thinking are the rebranding related announcements. Everyone that I know (self included) is tripping over using the correct term and name when talking VMware. After numerous requests from clients and having scrubbed by acronyms list here is my quick and dirty rebranding explained.
Net-Net Two Changes
- vCloud
Hybrid Servicesis now known as vCloud Air (pretty straight forward)- Many VMware products are now becoming avaialable via SaaS, if you see Air in the name, it denotes the SaaS varient
- vRealize is the new family name to designate VMware management technologies
- many product names that used to start with
vCenternow start with vRealize
- many product names that used to start with
Which Cascade across Suites and Offerings
vCloud Air – VMware’s public cloud platform built on vSphere, compatible with your on-premises data center. Available as a Virtual Private Cloud (shared hardware) or Dedicate Cloud (dedicated hardware) instance across seven (as of this posting) world wide data centers.
- vCloud Government Services – hybrid cloud service for US Federal Government agencies adherent to FedRAMP security standards
- vCloud Air Disaster Recover – Recovery as a Service for your on-premise workloads
- vCloud Air Data Protection – Backup and recovery feature for Dedicated Cloud or Virtual Private Cloud instances.
vRealize Family – Since this is a standardizing of product names under one family, see the product rebranding map:

And while the official stance from VMware Product Management is that there are no acronyms for the vRealize suite….they automatically started appearing, you can reference my VMware Acronym List for the latest acronyms.
