Enhanced vCloud Air Disaster Recovery features coming soon

By David Hill on January 21, 2015 in vCloud Air

Lots to talk about over at VMware’s Cloud Services Business Unit. Yesterday VMware made the Virtual Private Cloud On-Demand Generally Available which is the new pay as you go credit card offering. They also announced enhanced Disaster Recovery features that will be released in the coming months. I think this announcement went a little unheard due to the big splash On-Demand made.
