As companies drive to achieve core objectives, including automating tasks, better securing workloads, accelerating application delivery, controlling costs, and adopting new technologies such as Kubernetes using VMware, they are confronting common challenges.

Rackspace Elastic Engineering for VMware addresses these common obstacles by providing access to unmatched VMware and multicloud expertise delivered through agile methods with high affinity to customers and their teams.
