The strategic cooperation between Kyndryl and VMware, which focuses on app modernization and multicloud services, has been expanded. Customers will be able to improve their digital innovation and business transformation with enterprise control with collaboration.
“We’re excited to embark on this journey with VMware and intend to leverage a rich and productive history of joint solution architectures, common designs, and deep relationships to provide customers the solutions, services, and support they need to achieve their business transformation goals,” said Stephen Leonard, global alliances, and partnerships leader, Kyndryl.
He added, “Through this important partnership, Kyndryl and VMware will help companies design and deploy mission-critical workloads that can modernize their applications and operations to reap the benefits of cloud and multicloud computing.”
“Multicloud is the digital business model for the next 20 years. With the average organization running hundreds of apps across many different clouds, customers need solutions and strategic partners that enable their organizations to be as agile and resilient as possible. This is the power of the VMware and Kyndryl partnership,” said Susan Nash, senior vice president, strategic corporate alliances, VMware.
She also said, “Kyndryl is a strategic partner that brings world-class solutions, skills, expertise, and experience to the companies’ mutual customers. Together, we will empower customers to achieve smarter paths to the cloud, edge, and app modernization; provide autonomy for developers; and enable a more secure, frictionless distributed workforce.”
The expanded partnership’s main purpose is to help companies speed IT and business innovation by combining VMware solutions with Kyndryl’s design, build, and managed services. Customers will be able to accelerate their digital transitions by quickly developing and deploying new, more secure applications that are designed and built for a world of distributed work.
As Kyndryl and VMware embark on their separate paths, they will benefit from a productive relationship founded on more than 20 years of collaboration between VMware and IBM, which has consistently delivered a potent combination of strategic guidance and world-class technology to clients. With the agreement, the companies will work together to provide innovative solutions for multicloud infrastructure and administration, digital workspace services, managed applications, resiliency and security, and network and edge computing.
Kyndryl also intends to collaborate with VMware to expand its existing multicloud consultancy, implementation, and management services to include support for the VMware Tanzu platform and the deployment of vSphere workloads to VMware multi-cloud infrastructure across all public clouds.
To expand their collaboration’s global reach and impact, Kyndryl and VMware have aligned their respective capabilities, experience, and resources at the local, regional, and global levels, making solution development, investment, and execution easier.
Kyndryl and VMware is also working together to develop innovations through a Joint Innovation Lab (JIL), which is in charge of spearheading and driving delivery model improvements to better reach and service customers. The JIL initiatives will continue to focus on app modernization, containers, observability, and security, as well as multicloud management s and Kyndryl and VMware will work closely together to coordinate and maximise their collaboration in support of VMware Cross-Cloud services, which provide clients with infrastructure and application services and support regardless of the underlying cloud provider environments.
