Whether used to consolidate servers, deploy virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) to deliver desktops as a managed service, or enable cloud computing for unparalleled business agility, virtualization can help you break barriers and achieve more business innovation and growth. But pulling everything together to evolve your data center can be difficult. If the physical infrastructure, virtualization platform, and security don’t work together, you won’t achieve the anticipated return on investment for your virtualization and cloud computing projects. The VCE ™ Vblock, VxRack, and VxBlock Systems combine industry-leading technologies from Cisco, EMC, and VMware that deliver compute, network, storage, virtualization, and management technologies in prepackaged units. This converged infrastructure enables pre-configured, rapidly deployable hybrid cloud computing solutions that can lower capital and operational costs while providing new strategic opportunities for your business. As you deploy the VCE converged and hyper-converged infrastructure, you need security that is designed to protect these environments without sacrificing performance. Adding Trend Micro security to your Vblock Systems will enable you to achieve high consolidation rates with lower management complexity, while providing a single platform of comprehensive security for your virtual and cloud environments. Trend Micro ™ Deep Security ™ is Vblock Ready certified, ensuring that Trend Micro Deep Security works within the VCE pre-configured and tested environment. TREND MICRO DEEP SECURITY As a recognized leader in virtualization, VCE has also integrated VMware into its blocks, racks, and appliance systems. Trend Micro has been working with VMware for years to design security for VMware software-defined data center and cloud infrastructures through the Deep Security solution. This makes Trend Micro Deep Security a perfect complement to the VCE systems.
