Briefing on VMware Aria: A multi-cloud management & VMware Aria Graph

As part of VMware Aria, VMware offers a set of end-to-end solutions for managing infrastructure and cloud-native applications in terms of cost, performance, configuration, and delivery.

A graph-based data store technology, VMware Aria Graph, is behind VMware Aria, a platform for capturing the complexity of multicloud environments.

Cloud-native apps are managed in VMware Tanzu platform by VMware Aria, which complements and extends DevSecOps and lifecycle management functions.

Cloud-native and multi-cloud management is now available in three categories with VMware Aria: VMware Aria Cost powered by Cloud Health, VMware Aria Operations, and VMware Aria Automation.

It's been a hot topic since VMware Aria Hub powered by VMware Aria Graph was introduced in August 2022, and this SaaS-based multicloud management tool is making a big splash.

In order to harmonies the various vRealize Suite products (vROps, vRA, vRLI, vRNI, and others), VMware Aria has been developed from the ground up. Customers will be able to use a single platform with a shared data model to consistently deploy and manage apps, infrastructure, and platform services across private, hybrid, and multiple clouds.

Lets check below the VMware multi-cloud briefing December 2022 to get the more insights about the VMware Aria and VMware Aria Graph.
