VMware: AI autonomous workspaces streamlining hybrid work

Multi cloud leader VMware has announced a range of AI-powered integrations to its Anywhere Workspace platform, in a bid to help simplify and streamline hybrid work and boost employee experience.

VMware’s Anywhere Workspace platform, part of the VMware Cross-Cloud services portfolio, automatically optimises employee experience, drives new vulnerability management use cases, and simplifies application lifecycle management. 

The platform, the company says, is the only one of its kind that integrates digital employee experience (DEX), virtual desktop infrastructure and apps (VDI and DaaS), unified endpoint management (UEM) and security to enable a seamless and secure workspace on any device or location. 

“Last year, we announced our Autonomous Workspace vision as a path forward for organisations to navigate the challenges brought on by hybrid work,” said Shankar Iyer, Senior Vice President and General Manager of End-User Computing at VMware. “We are thrilled to unveil new advancements for our customers that expand data sources and insights, integrate with technology partners for improved security, and unify app delivery strategy across all virtual desktops and apps. These innovations continue to progress our vision of providing the next evolution of digital workspaces.” 

As part of the announcement, VMware has expanded its partnership with Intel through an exclusive, cloud-native integration of Workspace ONE with Intel vPro Services. This chip-to-cloud integration makes it easier to secure and remotely manage work devices entirely from the cloud, the company says, with no additional on-premises infrastructure and management software needed.  

Boeing: Using VMware platform to be a ‘Hybrid Workforce Innovator’  

The Boeing Company has used VMware Workspace ONE across the United States and in more than 65 countries to support its global workforce of 140,000 employees who develop, manufacture and service commercial airplanes, defense products and space systems for its customers. At VMware Explore 2023 Las Vegas, the company was named ‘Hybrid Workforce Innovator’ as part of the 2023 VMware Customer Achievement Awards for the Americas for enabling its workforce to work from anywhere in the world, improving the user experience while reinforcing and advancing security for devices and applications.  

“VMware Anywhere Workspace helps us manage and protect endpoints, provide a common platform to access apps and tools, as well as helping facilitate a digital experience for our employees,” said Kristina Ross, Boeing Workplace Solutions director for Research & Technology. “Workspace ONE helped streamline our transition from traditional PC lifecycle management to Windows 10 modern management which was enabled by our shift to a SaaS-based solution for the company. Today, we have a unified view to oversee all endpoint requirements, and the adoption of SaaS enhanced our scalability and ability to shift focus from infrastructure to business facing solutions.” 

VMware is a leading provider of multi-cloud services for all apps, enabling digital innovation with enterprise control. As a trusted foundation to accelerate innovation, VMware software gives businesses the flexibility and choice they need to build the future.

Earlier this week, chip maker Broadcom announced its US$61bn acquisition of VMware is expected to go ahead this year after the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority approved the deal.
