Tpcoms-VMware partnership to transform local cloud computing market

Earlier, on May 3, 2019 in Ho Chi Minh City, Tien Phat Technology JSC (Tpcoms) and its American partner VMware signed a cooperation agreement after one year of negotiations to pave the way for TPCloud’s launching.

Being a late-comer to Vietnam’s cloud computing market, Tpcoms has tried to bolster its competitive edge by investing heavily in technology and the perfection of its products.

Not just a simple virtual system of servers, TPCloud serves as a Software Defined Data Centre (SDDC) with a full set of components of a traditional DC, including server, network, and SAN, among others.

What is more, in order to become the complete SDDC that is verified by VMware, TPCloud has been equipped with hardware components, technical support team, and data centre infrastructure on par with VMware global standards. Besides, other solutions that are deployed must be aligned with requirements set out by VMware also, such as ESXi, vCenter, NSX, vRealize Log Insight, vRealize Operation, Usage Meter, and vCloud Director.. VMware specialists have come to Vietnam and worked on the total deployment of the SDDC system and technology transfer to TPCloud’s engineers.

Tpcoms acts as a professional provider of telecommunications and IT services. In the domestic market, Tpcoms has successfully developed a huge network of customers who are using the company’s telecommunications and IT services. They will be the potential customers Tpcoms can target with its campaign to promote cloud services in the market.

Meanwhile, its foreign partner VMware is a global leader in the provision of cloud computing with great advantages in technology and rich experiences working with global tech giants like AWS, Azure, and IBM.

Through the co-operation deal, Tpcoms has become a strategic partner of VMware in Vietnam and will distribute VMware’s leading products and services to local customers. Tpcoms is also the first cloud service provider in Vietnam winning VMware’s certification of Professional Cloud Provider.

According to a Tpcoms representative, being verified to use VMware technology helps TPCloud to easily provide customers with a wide range of products, including public cloud, private cloud, hybrid cloud, and multi-cloud for different kinds of companies, from small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to large-scalecorporations. By virtue of a commendable track record in providing connection infrastructure to big corporations throughout the country, TPCloud may spur a breakthrough in the domestic cloud market.

For VMware, co-operating with Tpcoms will pave the way for the corporation to expand its footprint in the ASEAN region, particularly in the Vietnamese market. Through joining hands with local partner Tpcoms, which has a thorough grasp of the local market and customers, VMware’s leading cloud products will reach local customers more conveniently with support from professional business development, customer support, and technical assistance teams.
