June 13, 2018

VMware Cloud on AWS brings VMware’s enterprise software-defined data center (SDDC) to the AWS Cloud. It enables customers to easily migrate their existing virtual infrastructures to seamlessly run their business-critical applications like SQL Server, in the cloud, using the same VMware vSphere environment that they have traditionally used on-premises. The purpose of this paper is to answer a question that many customers have today  how do workloads that have traditionally been run in an on-premises infrastructure perform when transitioned to the cloud? The benchmark results show the answer is SQL Server continues to perform great within a VMware Cloud environment, for both small and large OLTP database VMs/workloads.
