VMware networking and security solutions provide consistent, pervasive connectivity and security for apps and data, wherever they reside - from the data centre to the cloud and the edge.
NSX Data Centre
VMware NSX Data Center is the network virtualisation platform for the software-defined data centre (SDDC), delivering networking and security entirely in software, abstracted from the underlying physical infrastructure.
NSX Data Center enables the Virtual Cloud Network, providing pervasive, end-to-end connectivity for your apps and data, wherever they are.
Benefits of NSX Data Centre
- Security
- Application-centric security is delivered at the workload level to prevent the lateral spread of threats.
- Multi-cloud networking
- Bring networking and security consistency across heterogeneous sites and streamlines multi-cloud operations.
- Compliance
- Reduce scope of compliance by isolating the systems that store, process, or transmit sensitive data.
- Automation
- Automate networking and security services to remove operational bottlenecks across any application platform or framework.
- Cloud-native apps
- Enable native networking and security for containerised workloads across application frameworks.
NSX Cloud
VMware NSX Cloud delivers consistent and operationally scalable micro-segmentation security for applications running natively in public clouds, managed alongside data centre resources for consistent end-to-end networking and security. NSX Cloud currently supports Microsoft Azure and Amazon AWS public clouds.
Features of NSC cloud
- Multi-cloud, multi-site networking and security
- NSX Cloud brings networking and security capabilities to endpoints across multiple clouds. By integrating with NSX Data Center, it enables networking and security management across clouds and data center sites.
- Edge firewalling
- Stateful firewalling filters north-south traffic flowing between instances in virtual networks and the public Internet.
- Micro-segmentation
- NSX Cloud provides control over east-west traffic between application workloads running natively in public clouds.
- RESTful API
- RESTful API and automation tools help to programmatically provision and configure networking and security infrastructure on-demand.
- Security groups
- Security groups and rules can be defined based on rich policy constructs, such as instance name, OS type, AMI ID, and user-defined tags.
- Templating
- Use existing automation and orchestration tools to create standardised application templates, and simplify provisioning and management of networking and security services across public clouds.
- Dynamic policy
- ecurity policy is automatically applied and enforced based on instance attributes and user-defined tags. Policies automatically follow instances when they are moved within and across clouds.
- East-west traffic visibility
- Use existing Day 2 operations tools to gain visibility into east-west traffic within and across virtual private clouds.
- Quarantine instances
- You can quarantine rogue and compromised workloads that are running in the public cloud without micro-segmentation security. Quarantined instances are prevented from communicating on the cloud network.
- Security logging
- Gain real-time visibility and auditing of security events such as allows/denies and quarantine incidents. Send security event information to a Syslog or SIEM server.
- Distributed architecture
- A distributed firewalling architecture eliminates additional network hops and traffic because policies are enforced at the virtual network interface of each instance, rather than routed through an external firewall.
