M1 partners with US-based VMWare for automation cloud software

Startups and SMEs will be able to access automation software for their workloads.

M1 and US-based firm VMWare Inc launched a cloud offering for startups and small to medium enterprises (SMEs).

According to a press release, M1 is offering its Software-Defined Data Centre (SDDC) portfolio, powered by the VMWare Cloud Provider programme with container support through Pivotal Container Service (PKS).

The new cloud offering allows access to production-grade automation system Kubernetes and natively-supported toolkits.

This can offer faster deployment of containerized workloads across private and public clouds, enabling digital startups to innovate quickly and go to market faster, while saving on investment in on-premises infrastructure, M1 said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
