We’ve all heard it: businesses need to modernize their applications to stay competitive. But here’s the catch—modernizing isn’t always as simple as it sounds. Whether you’re dealing with complex legacy systems, trying to integrate cloud-native technology, or figuring out how to do all of this while keeping costs down, the journey can seem a bit overwhelming.
On top of that, a lot of companies need real-time analytics, security, and customization that can only come from having a hybrid environment—mixing the best of on-premises systems with the cloud. It sounds like a lot, doesn’t it? But this is exactly where Supermicro SuperBlade® and Google Distributed Cloud Virtual (GDC Virtual) come in to save the day.
In this blog, we will talk about how, together, these two powerhouses create a seamless way to modernize your infrastructure, all while reducing complexity and optimizing costs.
About Supermicro SuperBlade® and GDC Virtual
Supermicro SuperBlade® servers delivers energy-efficient, scalable, and high-density systems that are built to support both cloud-native and hybrid cloud environments.
On the flip side, Google Distributed Cloud Virtual (GDC Virtual) is a software-only solution that helps businesses extend the power of Google Cloud to their own on-premises infrastructure. Using Anthos, GDC Virtual makes it easy to manage both cloud-native and legacy applications consistently, no matter where they are.
SuperBlade® makes it possible to run GDC Virtual in virtualized or bare-metal environments, which gives your team the flexibility to build a hybrid cloud model that fits your unique needs.
