VMworld 2017 US - General Session Day 1

[Music] ladies and gentlemen please welcome Pat Gilson guru [Music] [Applause] [Music] good morning good morning welcome to VM world 2017 with twenty thousand-plus here on site to Vegas and thousands more online in fact if we could bring up the house lights now and for those online if you could just see everybody here and they ought to turn without be a little crazy a wave shag yeah yeah you want to be here in person next year and you're missing a lot by not being here but thanks for joining online on behalf of VM ware it is my pleasure to have you with us today and this my sixth VM world and it was on the stage five years ago that I was received the honor of being the CEO of this great company but also of this great community and ecosystem and for me I just say thank you for giving me such an honor being able to take this role we've been following the events of the closely in the situation in Texas that can you believe 50 inches of rain and the devastation from hurricane Harvey and you know our thoughts and heartfelt wishes and prayers go out to everyone in that effective region and I would just encourage each one of you to consider making a generous donation to organizations like the Red Cross and consideration for that devastation that they're having there you know we've reached an interesting moment in the evolution of technology and each one of us as technologies have just always been sort of fascinated by science fiction but we're seeing science fiction become science fact for our everyday use and you know if we go to science fiction how many of you remember the movie alien where you saw Ellen Ripley you know put on that exoskeleton to go out and fight the alien in that movie well now here we are in 2017 and what was science fiction is now everyday fact for South Korean ship and steel workers strapping on their exoskeleton and becoming superhuman or maybe from the world of science fiction this you know how many of you remember the famous beam me up Scotty from Kirk when he's in a tough situation and while we might not be quite ready for beam me up you know as Einstein called quantum entanglement you know spooky action at a distance we've now been able to China Chinese researchers have been able to demonstrate real photon quantum entanglement from earth to a satellite 300 miles away not quite beam me up yet but amazing the spooky action now at a large distance Hollywood also loves this idea of you know genetically modified insects and we've seen this with ants bees flies and spiders well a science fact today CRISPR this ability to permanently modify DNA structures is being used to create Zika resistant mosquitoes to may be combat that in a fundamental and permanent way I guess for me personally I'm looking for the you know mosquito modification that it causes it not to bite me in the future but as we consider these in this era of radical scientific change the question is what's the most profound change of them all and I'd say of them all maybe it's our expectations our everyday you know now my 1 year old granddaughter Abigail by the way she is the cue one year old I will admit you know she pinches swipes and pokes when she gets my phone or tablet in her hand can you believe that at 1 years old it's hard to believe that our perspective has changed so radically and such a short period of time you know and a great example how many of you have been in a self-driving car right number of you now you know as I've talked to people and I did it myself a couple of times the most amazing thing is you get in the car and you're like wow nobody's at the wheel right you're just doing this almost fearful frightening and then right at about minute 2 through 5 fierce questioning how does this work what are the sensors doing what happens if we lose Internet connectivity you know what happens if a car swerves in front of me you know what I'm a geek this intense questioning probably took me five minutes not three but then somewhere around minute four or five fierce boredom sets in this car drives slower and more cautiously than my grandmother on Sunday when are we going to get there and it's a metaphor for what's happening in our age you know we see this dynamic playing out industry by industry by industry simply put tech is leaving the nest of tech and we see it across every one of these where they're having their breakout moments and these are just five representative industries but in every case we're seeing tech driven models restructure these entire industries from the front office to the back office and just a couple of these examples you know how many of you remember your first digital audio experience maybe from real media or real audio or Winamp you remember that right and you know that was about 20 years ago and amazingly the traditional enterprise media and entertainment industry movies books you know concerts jack has continued to grow but it's flatlined and now right last here digital media and entertainment surpassing this on its way to be a trillion-dollar industry we just crossed the halfway point and I you know as a you know as a data-driven guy it's always when do we hit halfway and we're now halfway there and we're excited as we're working with a number of companies and a median entertainment companies on their transformation and one of those scrips networks will hear a little bit more from than later today you know they're a life style of entertainment and food network Cooking Channel Travel Channel those are you know the ones my wife likes right and you know huge global demand for they are programming and now looking for a private and hybrid cloud experience to enable their environment globally you know if you think about e-commerce again it was about 20 years ago you know companies like Amazon and Alibaba and I was shocked when I saw this statistic that even as fast and its disruptive and change this occurred in that area we're one-tenth there and even though digital may be guiding choices and purchases still the industry is only 1/10 changed stunning or may be and these are some of the customers that we're working with and you know in that area Nike right you know the ability to design your own shoes either in the store or online I've done mine have you done yours yet and in other industries we still have a long way to go and maybe healthcare is one that we're in the cusp of transformation as we think about that you know I think of good industries are 50/50 on this metric 50 percent of IT is going into new customer experiences and 50 percent into keeping the lights on in Medicare we're 50 percent I mean we're at 80% today quality of life life expectancy is proving dramatically but a long way to go and what tech can do in this area later today we'll have Medtronic on stage with us to give their story of how they're changing this picture but in each one of these if we take a step back we've seen a fundamental shift and what labor and lifestyle means 200 years ago 85 plus percent of the Americans were consumed in agriculture this is my heritage I'm from a farming family on the East Coast my world you know one time you know maybe 15 years ago you know I was at a table with all of my uncle's at a family reunion my dad's a family of ten and here are all of his uncles and uncle and laws not one of them have all of their fingers I think this change on this slide is just fine the quality of life improvements the improved efficiency that have resulted farming is not a bad life but it is a very tough life and as we think about manufacturing you know we're not about bringing jobs back we're about automating them away so that we can create higher value roles and changing industry and as we look at that industry framework today the rest of the economy now you know almost nine out of ten jobs and services and retail in healthcare we're about creating higher value higher paying jobs in the future and changing the quality of life as a result you're honest I think about some have said the three hours of education read write and rithmetic in the future it's read write code and rithmetic and as we think about those industries you know every one of them has a common theme it's about the apps fundamentally customers need to reshape their businesses around the customer experience and the applications of software skills to do that that's what our making the winners and losers of tomorrow and the essence of the VMware strategy is enabling businesses to create and deliver apps for their businesses and we summarized it in this simple picture that brings together all the things that we're doing any device any application any cloud with intrinsic security and we're broadening that picture and we're now seeing our technologies and what we have done as an industry reach into telco networks and with these things called NFV network function virtualization they're almost entirely under try and now here we are reaching in and helping them virtual eyes and get the efficiencies in their core networks also with edge tech is breaking out of tech but we're stretching and reaching further to have all of these machine connected devices and you know this is year 36 so I'm entering year 37 in the industries and I know I look like I'm 35 year 37 in my career in the industry and you know as you've been in the industry that long you start to detect patterns and one of those is what I call this shift from centralization to decentralization yeah we started with the mainframe computer right and then client-server and internet a mini computer and we've seen this AB and flow from centralization to decentralization and the cloud has been a force of centralization over the last decade or so an IRT an edge right pushes us back toward more decentralization as many of these edge devices require a capability and data generation at the edge you know we think of this in the you know a simple phrase cloud to edge and we're the physical world connects with the digital world devices producing massive amounts of data much of it local explosion of apps and services an increasing surface area for security and exploits and this is why we announced that Dell Liam seaworld earlier this year the VMware pulse set of IOT technologies for factories for smart cities for oil rigs and we're thrilled that our partnership with Fujitsu has now expanded to be working with Toyota the largest car manufacturer in the world to deliver pulse IOT and a beta of what that next generation in car experience can be right as we control a management millions of cars billions of devices Wow our industry is reaching further than ever before you know and looking again at this picture let's dig in a little bit on any app any device portion of it now apps fundamentally are about unleashing the potential of your most valuable resource and our goal is simple give you access to those applications on any device in any modality and usage model of your choice now this is the picture of what that app world looks like today it's complex and messy and as you think about it in your organization's you realize that la is a messy but it also crosses lots of silos inside of your organization at different areas and much of that complexity isn't focused on the total solution VMware strategy and the spaces put it all together and that's what workspace one is about bringing all of those pieces together to deliver consumer simple but enterprise secure work space one has three fundamental elements one absent identity consistent environment across whatever app was single sign-on multi-factor authentication that's powerful second for the operations environment consistent management and security and IT is in control delivered either on-premise or as a service and this is where horizon air and what we've done for delivering that as a service and areas like our Azure partnership have gone extremely well excitement about this kind of capability across all the devices and usages and across desktop and mobility AirWatch began its journey with Apple and iOS devices we then expanded that to include androi a deepening of that relationship with Samsung and then a move in to write Windows devices and Microsoft has declared that SCCM and that management model is now dead move on to a modern unified endpoint management architecture and a dull EMC world a deepening of our relationship with Dell and integrating works space 1 directly with dog clients last week with Chromebook so now the exclusive partner with them and managing Chromebook environments and today we are broadening the world's broadest ecosystem yet again and we're excited to announce today that Dione Wexler the CEO of HP I has partnered with us to embrace workspace 1 let's hear from Dion right now hello everyone at VMworld 2017 HP and VMware a longtime partners today I'm excited to announce an even deeper extension of our collaboration during your event we're announcing that VMware's unified endpoint management solution will be incorporated into HP's device as a service offering VMware's endpoint management solution will be a key component of our managed service offering enabling customers to use real-time actionable insights and world-class security monitoring in partnership with vmware we're delivering the next generation of device usage today is an exciting day for both of our companies thanks to VMware and together let's keep reinventing Thank You Dion and the HP team and well while I love talking about workspace one it's even better to hear directly from customers and their experience and to help facilitate that conversation it's my pleasure to have Sanjay Coonan as the CEO of customer operations be able to facilitate that conversation today with Capital One let's hear from Capital One [Applause] [Music] well ladies and gentlemen it's great to go from sort of main stage to our field corner here I'm gonna play a sort of Anderson Cooper in talking to our customer Jennifer manry who was managing vice president of end-user computing identity access management at Capital One and Jennifer before we start I've got to say I'm a big fan of Samuel Jackson and I had to do the obligatory what's in your wallet I love it so I've got the capital one card here you guys have been a phenomenal innovator one of the first to like a doc cloud I remember seeing Rob Alexander and AWS conference ordering a lot with them more on that later but also in the end-user world this whole digital transformation in the way in which business and IT trams transforms you guys have been visionaries how is that playing out at Capital One yeah well I think a lot of people think of us as the what's in your wallet people they think of this as a credit card company or a bank that's actually not how we see ourselves we actually think of ourselves as a technology company that happens also be a bank but you don't you know get to call yourselves just a technology company and poof be a technology company I mean we really focus on delivering very rich digital immersive experiences to our consumers anticipating what they need but we realized several years ago in order to be able to do that we really needed to change the way we operate and deliver software to our consumers and so that really changed several years ago with us taking a sharp right turn away from waterfall delivery moving to agile and DevOps and outfitting our employees with the things that they needed to deliver those experiences and we've been on a huge transformative journey ever since then really embracing new technology like you said cloud and hiring thousands of software engineers and designers to be able to continue our progress forward in that transformation it's amazing here's a financial services company talking like a tech company with Dajjal and DevOps now how is that played out in the end-user landscape give us a sense of you've got phones you've got tablets you've got laptops and desktops we just announced this deal with HP you must be pretty excited about that too given that's in your landscape how is that device notification look at at Capital One sure I think when we started looking at become like a technology company we also had the realization that you can't have people come into the enterprise and not have a great experience with the tools and software that we give to them to do their jobs and we have now seen that the expectations are changing in the workforce driven largely by the experiences people have in their personal and consumer lives and they want to come into the enterprise and feel that they can operate with their colleagues in the same way they operate with their friends and family outside and so we we realized that we needed to rip out in a place a lot of the technology we have and provide much more modern capabilities to our associates and part of that started with devices we've got a very heterogeneous device landscape we've got Macs and Windows machines we've got different kinds of mobile devices and with that comes the overhead of having to be able to manage those effectively but we really were striving to unify that experience we want everyone to have a great experience no matter what device they choose to work on and frankly our associates are carrying their tool devices so we want them to be as effective and proficient on their a laptop as they are on their mobile phone so we've actually been using great tools provided to us by VMware whether it be AirWatch to deliver these secure experiences to our mobile users and also workspace one to unify and make a consistent experience across this endpoint so we want to make sure that people have a great experience no matter what device they use and we can administer and manage those endpoints really effectively so through using the VMware tools and the partnerships that we've had we've been able to really achieve some of our great and user goals as well so you've got iOS you've got Android your ghost and from a combination of AirWatch works based on all unified but you also got some you know legacy windows applications that you'll need to kind of use maybe VDI desktop as a service and you're now using horizon cloud how is that usage play out - so you've got you know full digital user experience we do I think it plays out in the way that we that consistent unified experience across those devices whether it's the virtual environment or the actual physical environment we're able to deliver a very consistent experience and manage all of those endpoints in really consistent ways that's how that's really coming to life for us and Jennifer this has been a partnership right when we first got to meet you it's not always easy there bumps in the road talked a little bit about the partnership that's very important to us at VMware it's not just a client relations a partnership how does that played out it I think it's important to bring that up I rarely look for a software provider to come in and just hand me licenses and say go forth and prosper and be great at this I look for strategic partnerships where we can see a collective win and what we're doing and that's certainly what I've gotten from VMware I mean our engineers who know Capital One requirements and what we need the most sit alongside of workspace one engineers and we talk about things we share expertise across them and we develop in a collaborative way the proof of concepts and pilots that we've used to drive towards our progress to achieving these goals and so it's very much an investment of both teams in a collective win VMware gets to see their product be successful at Capital One and we get to achieve our really audacious and user goals using the tools well you've been a visionary it's always pleasure connecting a customer directly with the the engineers and you know pushing us into the some of these areas like the cloud let's as we wrap up give us a little bit of vision about where you see this all headed how is this end-user landscape going to look like over the course of the next several years I mean I think everyone here knows that technology is changing so very quickly and as I mentioned our associates expectations change as their experiences happen differently in their personal lives and so we're constantly in the business of assessing and reassessing the capabilities we provide out to our associates knowing that we've got to infuse the latest and greatest technology advancements into their experience because that's what helps them create the experiences for our customers so things like machine learning better mobile experiences those all come to light for us from an associate perspective but then play out on how we deliver our experiences to our consumers that's great well ladies and gentleman there you hear it from a visionary and an incredible brand Capital One I hope that's what we all have in your wallets but thank you Jennifer let's give it up for Jennifer thank you thank you very much back to your back it's a great story and Thank You Jennifer for joining us here on stage because we now look more at that vision let's go to cloud but start with private cloud you know and talk about mind blowing technologies remember your first experience with workstation or ESX and you were just like wow how does that work how can he do that through this piece of software right and I remember my first exposure Diane and Mendel the founders of VMware they came to see me and I was running the server business for Intel at the time right and so they can walk into my office and they start describing how 10 servers can become 1 or 20 server chips can become just 2 and I'm like Diane you know what business I run don't you but they were absolutely undeterred right they kept selling me to partner and work with them you know in this mind-boggling technology and I wasn't alone in my reaction in fact many of the early vmware salespeople they would describe this disbelief anger frustration youth you for him that would emerge from their first customer experience and in fact what we found was some early footage from some of those first vmware sales calls and you know if we could just show you one of those right now [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] you see that high-priced talent that we brought on stage to do this with us Steve Herod right you know CTO for VMware for many years is still a great friend of ours you know and you know from that early awesome mind biowing experience we've gone on we've now virtual eyes the entire data center and we've turned it into a cloud a private cloud but it's not cloud like easy and you've told us that it's too hard and our job is to make it easy to deploy easy to manage and today we're excited to deliver skyline predictive support to further improve that management experience and also easy to secure and you know you might remember this picture of the past and you know in fact that just a couple of weeks ago I was cleaning out my garage and I found my electronics toolbox yeah and inside yeah that was when I was a technician when I opened it up I found that you know that a soldering iron was in there and I found my voltmeter and I replaced the batteries it was still working I was so excited right at the time you know and I remember you know I built a PC with my son right it was a water-cooled overclocked dual graphics machine I mean whoa yeah it was good right in fact we just retired him a couple of years ago but today there's a better way we expect the fully integrated system that just works and that's our philosophy as we approach the space now we have to make the private cloud easier and that's what VMware cloud foundation is all about yeah you can buy the pieces the compute virtualization Network and you know storage or you can get the full thing put together and that's what VMware Cloud Foundation bringing those pieces together with automated lifecycle management and today we're thrilled to be delivering version 2.2 a VMware cloud foundation the latest of all of the VMware software technologies lifecycle management delivered both on-premise and as the foundational technology for in the cloud as well and we also see that another key step in this areas what we'll call hyper converge bringing together the hardware and the software and today V San has over 10,000 customers just incredible we're adding over a hundred customers a week to this product and with vcn ready nodes building world-class hardware relationships now we have 12 server partners to OEM partners and over 250 separate SKUs also v san and it was a killer technology and I know when I was running you know chips for Intel we were always searching for that killer application or use case that was show off our latest the silicon while V San is it for a 14 G and the latest Intel scalable server chips you know in the latest of all flash storage nothing shows it off better than B sin but of course the best way to buy it is as a complete appliance and VX rail now the number one HCI appliance at dolly MC today Dell and EMC are also announcing rat B rack SDBC the latest version taking advantage of VMware cloud foundation 2.2 and the latest of power edge and flash story really an awesome platform and we continue to improve our core foundational technology vSphere 6.5 with improved backup integrate and log insight latest of v s-- and capabilities v center now for high availability and as you hear about a little bit later in our talk for security as well so lots is happening in the area of private cloud but let's now turn to public cloud and you might be the only person on the planet who doesn't know about the partnership that we announced with Amazon late last year and today we're delivering on that promise please join me in welcoming Andy JSC CEO of AWS to the stage of VMworld [Applause] and II it really is great to have you here with us today thank you for having us we've been working together for a long time to get to today so it's great to be here with all yeah you know any journey hundreds of engineers working on things it is thrilling to get to this day and announce the availability of VMware cloud on AWS starting now and this really is the ultimate hybrid solution you know that we've developed together the ability to run any application with vSphere and now be able to seamlessly take that private cloud environment and move it into the public cloud and use VMware software that you're familiar with to manage both your on-premise as well as your in the cloud infrastructure as well yeah as more and more mainstream enterprises have started making their long-term plans in the cloud they would say to us it's great that you've built a bunch of tools that make it easy for us to run our on-premises data centers alongside AWS but since most of the world is virtualized on VMware and since AWS and VMware haven't really done anything to integrate seamlessly you're forcing us into this binary choice where either we move to the cloud with AWS and we can't use the VMware tools we've been using for a long time or we stick with the VMware tools and it's much harder to use AWS in the cloud and they hated this binary decision that we were forcing on them and so VMware cloud on AWS gives them the best of both worlds that gives them the world's leading private cloud provider alongside easily being able to be used with the world's leading public cloud provider it's the offering is really the only one that's operated managed by VMware and you can use their licenses to leverage here and so people are pretty fired up about this yeah yeah we're really excited about it but also our customers are excited about it as well yeah there's there's a lot to be excited about you know as I mentioned earlier as a customer if you can use the same tools that you've been using to manage your on-premises infrastructure and easily run that with AWS it's very attractive and then you get the same operational consistency and compatibility you're used to using with this offering you don't have to kind of adopt a brand new operating model for your on-premises infrastructure you don't have to adopt a new model just to be able to get consistency between your arm in your cloud environments you can use vCenter in the same tools you're used to running your infrastructure and run those easily alongside AWS and then at the same time it's much more cost effective than what you could do otherwise I think if you look at some of the other options out there for this type of offering it costs a few hundred thousand dollars to spin up a few instances plus professional services and then to do anything meaningful you're looking at a couple million dollars yech so this is much more cost effective what we're doing together and here's a sampling of some of the early customers and you know we've just gotten great reaction from our lighthouse and beta customers as well and some of their use cases are quite compelling as well for instance Moody's the credit rating service you know it's a great example customer looking at cloud migration you know and they're looking to capture those cost efficiencies that you were just describing some of the agility but they didn't want to refactor their current applications and we're struggling with how they could move to the cloud without having to reap lat form and re architect their applications and VMware cloud on AWS solve that for them a low-risk pass to the cloud with minimal disruption to their IT and business operations yeah or even look at a company like Rico which makes printers and cameras and they have a bunch of compute intensive R&D they do where they're gonna use the offering to do cyclical cyclical computing and disaster recovery yeah and you know another customer Scripps Networks that I referenced earlier in the keynote you know and as they expand globally they're interested in hybrid services to execute their next-generation app structure even as they're using it to scale up more rapidly internationally it's how do they build their next-generation app services as well so that's part of what they're looking at for this capability you know and we're also seeing a lot of enthusiasm from our partner ecosystem key system integrators and DXE is a great example of that where DXE really the formation of CSC along with the HP services business coming together they were a great partner of yours Amazon as well they've been a great partner of ours as well and now as we bring our capabilities together they're excited to really lead and making this hybrid service offering something that they can bring to market yeah powerful way and you know Accenture and Deloitte and Capgemini and Rackspace is there some other systems integrators that are really excited about the offering and have really gotten themselves prepared to help all of you to start taking advantage of it and as you see on the slide here as well even though this is just the initial availability of the service we already have a rich ecosystem of tech partners who are bringing their capabilities specifically designed and validated for the service offering already in the marketplace yeah so you know let's talk about the roadmap a little bit and where we're going cuz this you know as a cloud service you know initial availability is just the beginning right and even though it's available today in one availability zone and the West Region will be moving that to the East Coast region and then internationally and our commitment is to have it available globally that before the end of next year every one of your availability zones is a center for the VMware cloud service as well yeah well any type of roadmap for us and I'm sure it's true for you as well is driven by what all of you tell us matters to you and and you know the vast majority of what we build as a whole in AWS is driven by what customers want and the same will be true here we'll listen very closely to what you'd like to see us continue to build together and do so there's some obvious ones geographic expansion is Pat just mentioned and there's a whole bunch of ways that I think together along with our partners will help you get going on top of the offering but you know I'd also say that most of these types of partnerships that you see tend to be optical and really marketing flash rather than substance is that much going on with the teams beneath the announcement and I would say the opposite is really true here I think you know from the very start both Pat and I have been deeply involved in our senior leaders and really the team's up and down have I think a pretty unusual working relationship where they've gotten a lot done in a short amount of time very collaboratively which I think bodes well for all of you that we will not only be able to listen to what you care about and iterate on your behalf but also it's just really the beginning of what we can do together yeah and you know it's the engineering teams marketing teams really just scratching the surface of what we're gonna do together and this is really thrilling well thank you so much to the vmworld audience thank you Andy for joining us you honor us by your presence here let's again thank you Andy Jessie [Applause] [Music] at this time last year we described the VMware cloud strategy and as we've just covered make private cloud easy you challenged us as customers to say you know develop these major partnerships with the cloud providers just like we heard about from Andy now with our AWS partnership they'll also expand our cloud partner network and last year we had IBM on stage and we're seeing great momentum from that partnership but you've also said there's other services where we need to embrace and take advantage of native cloud services and make those available as well and responding to that we launched an effort that really listens to what CEO CIOs are telling us around the world and we've heard this consistently from Asia Europe and America's you know help us to get there faster help our existing apps help us embrace the future and do that securely as well and the response to that is what we'll call our VMware cloud services that enable a consistent infrastructure right across these cloud environments what you just heard with Amazon and IBM partners like virtustream and what we're doing to make s ap you know in mission-critical clouds available OVH leading in the hybrid services area with us but also embracing native services on other clouds like a juror or Google cloud and helping to have consistent operational environments even for native services in those areas and even though we love if everybody built on our stack we realized that we have an opportunity to respond to customers desires and a niat and uniquely enable experience across all clouds and that's what VMware cloud services is all about and today I'm excited to announce the availability of our first seven VMware cloud services services that give you increased visibility across clouds that offers nsx is a common networking and security layer across multiple clouds that helps you allocate to manage resources across private and public to discover and introspect and get metrics across those environments while simultaneously increasing the security for the data and applications VMware cloud services so as we look at this we really see the VMware cloud strategy is about these four things consistent infrastructure across clouds consistent operations across any cloud the richest network of VMware cloud-based global service provider partners and finally IT agility while reducing complexity and risk so again let's hear from a customer who's taken advantage of this right now let's hear from Medtronic [Music] ok ladies and gentlemen we're back with our second customer in this little field corner I love this little dual-stage thing going on and I'm really honored to have another great brand your Medtronic needs no introduction an incredible brand in medical technology with me is Kareem simmer head of IT hosting transformation and modernization program Kareem it's great to have you thank you I think you've got one of your props here so tell us about this wonderful medical technology yeah so what we have here today is an MRI sure scan it's just one of many of the medical devices that we have and a little known fact that you may not know last year 65 million people benefited from a Medtronic device that's one every two seconds that's awesome we feel so honored to be working with a with customers we're doing so much to help save people's lives maybe we can start that tell us a little bit about the business and IT transformation that Medtronic has been going through because you're a phenomenal brand but you've also been transforming the company yeah so our CEO Omar his vision has changed really from one of a medical device industry to one of services and so very much this transformation around services and services brokering looking at healthcare and the challenges that you have both economically and clinically we've got a glowing growing population aging population of patients in addition to that we have chronic disease on the increase and regulatory requirements that create a number of challenges as well and so it's requiring companies like Medtronic in the healthcare industry to really transform how they provide those services that's awesome there's sort of a parallel of your moving to device technology to services to us trying to do product services I'd like to focus in a little bit on kind of the use of our products together you've been one of the pioneers and driving the private cloud and then the movement of the public cloud with our cloud management products and also cloud foundation how is you made the case for all the innovation you're doing in the private cloud and where have you where's that taking you so to be very candid some of it was technical obsolescence with a private cloud our existing platform just being at a point where we needed to do something differently in order continue growing the company required additional flexibility capacity security which is one that we we all talk about particularly as we talk about cloud platforms and so that was a significant driver and the growth of Medtronic and where Omar sees us going so that was our investment in the private cloud we have a global instance five datacenters and should be going to production shortly here in about two weeks the M word cloud foundation working on top of Dell EMC really good state-of-the-art lowering cost and complexity you're also one of the early adopters looking at VMware cloud on AWS what do you see as promise I know it's early days but what does you do you see is the promise of where the public cloud could take you so right now we're very early days looking at what some of the opportunities are in some of the use cases that we're looking at our archival disaster recovery burst capacity you know the one challenge which I think many of you will recognize if you've done anything contractually around licensing going from on-prem to cloud that again it's our or more significant challenge one that's true for the cloud and it's so true and you've again just like a conversation with jennifer it's been a real partnership you've pushed us in areas where we need to optimize our private cloud you know early there's a public cloud how is that partnership gone good it's like any relationship you know you're in for the long haul there's good days there's bad days sometimes separate vacations are good very good and on that note by the way there's a big team of Medtronic under our account team here too so I just wanna say so again you know you I think it's something that you have to recognize you're going in for the long haul when you do this it's a learning it's a journey it's transformative it's new it's bold we are in it with you we don't need to go on vacation together but we're having it together that's good and we are here to help hey John ops yeah this is good well I know just in wrapping up just so amazing what your company's doing for the world saving lives but this is also deeply personal for you in terms of the impact your passion about women and technology you're passionate about the impact and community talk a little bit about that because I think it's a good way to inspirationally end our conversation yeah so women in technology I started in this field 30 years ago and I was in the Air Force so Air Force vet yeah and so being a role model being an example doing things like this and encouraging young women to pursue careers in technology very very important to me a big passion the second part of this is that Medtronic is a very philanthropic company very devoted committed to community and for me something that's important for a company is to be that that philanthropy example last year they donated two percent of pre-tax profits a hundred and fourteen million dollars to local charities I benefit from that not personally but I have a foundation the filip December prostate cancer Research Fund which recognizes and supports research scholars at the University of Minnesota and with their employee match program I've been able to raise a million dollars in the last five years so that's great well Kareem I am gonna share the story of my daughter Sophia I'm hoping she'll be inspired by role models like you ladies and gentlemen give it up for Kareem summer thank you very much for being there thank you [Music] [Applause] [Music] Thank You Kareem and what a great story you know what I like to do now is just dig in right - one of the underlying technologies inside of both private and public cloud let's talk about networking clearly at the heart of everything we're doing now at VMware is networking and a sex network virtualization and nsx is becoming this connective tissue that ties everything together clearly it's become central to what we're doing with private clouds and our mobile and desktop environment today with what we've announced with our VMware cloud services our partnership with Amazon we're stretching NSX into the public cloud as well and it's becoming a key way that we connect between those two worlds in a consistent way it's Mauro if I can just give you a little teaser we'll talk about how we're stretching it into native container and new app frameworks as well we're also extending NSX to be a connective tissue to IOT and bridge allowing consistent network and security models we're also bringing into the core telco networks as well then you're seeing that NSX is becoming the secret sauce behind most everything that we do and you know maybe what vSphere was - the first 20 years of VMware NSX is becoming - the next decade or two it's that important and if you're not using it today you're already behind we see this is so powerful and transformational as a key component of what we do you know and today we're excited to have the largest food service distributor in the world's Cisco with us to talk about their journey as well not not to be confused with that other Cisco with a similar name yeah please join me in welcoming Cisco [Applause] [Music] all right ladies and gentleman we're back we're talking with the real Cisco about networking Matt Nikolaev senior director of cloud infrastructure glad you guys found that funny but you know you guys are an incredible brand and I've asked all of the companies to bring that prop and you know tell us about this little prop here sure so this is a much smaller version of the trucks that we have out on the road across the world and uh about 16,000 of these on the road in North America alone and they deliver around five million cases of food a day to our customers I see a slightly bigger version of this when I Drive to work a test a little VMware and love those trucks love your brand love all you're doing Matt you've been a pioneer in a lot of what Cisco is doing with some of the things we talked about earlier I watched workspace one public cloud database we'll talk about that in a second but NSX for you has been transformational you were early and adopting this and tell us a little bit about why that was so important to you sure so at Cisco I mean we're uh what a lot of people would continue it would consider a very traditional industry I mean we're we move food from one place to another we do it very efficiently we're the best in the world at that but like many industries we're seeing a lot of opportunities for technology to disrupt our industry so to get to where we want to be to serve our customers as well as we do today in the future we realize that there's a need for disruption we need to do things more quickly we need to have greater agility and everything we do and a part of that is infrastructure and so we went after the servers first there was a lot of opportunities we've worked with vmware on that and now after that we went after the network which is really saying we can't bottleneck getting what our customers need at any point in our infrastructure and nsx has been fantastic at accelerating our ability to provision networks at securing our network some micro segmentation is something that we are deploying today we are putting it against some of our most sensitive workloads being able to ring-fence though from the rest of our data center and then also the combination of what we're doing is we're rolling out workspace one today and being able to take individual users and use a per app VPN tunnel from a workspace one managed device into that segmented workload it's amazing it's it's technology we're very very excited about so you've got NSX in its use case around micro segmentation around the data center transformative but you also were able to connect it into the NGO of the landscape and it's a key technology to what we'd also see in the public cloud so as you think about all through those landscape you know data center end-user and public cloud NSX is critical absolutely I mean we see the challenge of an or a multi cloud company and the challenge of managing different clouds in different ways I mean be it daily operations whether it's cost some networking in particular having to go to different tool sets and different management planes for every section of your network is for applications that span multiple clouds is incredibly challenging and the opportunity to start using NSX and a multi cloud manner is very exciting to it awesome and Matt you were telling me during the break that in the early usage of VMware cloud in AWS because you're starting to pilot it you were able to spin up a data center in like literally at what a couple of hours no it's it's so I mean it my background is uh is engineering so I'm I'm somewhat I like to tinker even though I'm in a leadership role now and I I got the credentials to our lighthouse environment and for VMware cobia right for VMware cloud on AWS and I sat down around lunchtime and logged in and I just played around with it during uh say during meetings between meetings in the afternoon and I was able to build a data center I was able to build networks is able to open firewalls assign public eye peas and build a build a web server out on the internet in about four hours all while you were all doing other all while I was doing other meetings and incredible so uh let's play - wait wait something talked about him we're hoping it gets even easier and faster and you can take your lunch break coffee breaks I'm looking to all that's good stuff let's talk a little bit about the future one of the things I've appreciate about your IT leadership leadership from Wayne to Frank to you is the movement agile I mean to think about a logistics distribution company agile is key but where are you taking this notion of agile as you think about the future absolutely so we're undergoing a complete transformation in the way we do technology on we mean as a starter even when our CIO Wayne came in he rebranded the entire organization business technology because technology exists to support the business not for the sake of itself but we are currently transforming into product teams so every every part of technology gets a product they're focused on we're doing a lot of work in breaking apart our systems and our applications and from monoliths into micro services connecting things with api's it's a it's a it's a really exciting time to be in technology at Cisco and just to see that as we make these changes how much more value we can bring to our business and our customers with a lot of speeds so the ideas of micro services containers all in your active look at where you will be headed absolutely I mean today today we're doing containers on our new applications with CI CD pipelines and we're starting to go after our legacy applications and breaking them up and applying the same principles so small plug stay tuned many of you tomorrow we're going to talk a lot more about containers and micro services and so on and so forth and I think Matt I think you'll like what we're gonna be talking about tomorrow thank you for being here ladies and gentlemen Matt Nikolaev thank you very much [Music] [Applause] well I think Matt just food threw the gauntlet down for all of us techy kind of folks spit up a data center on your lunch break let's dive into now what may be the most important topic of them all security you know and when we think about security you know it's really sort of a simple assignment protect the absent data and how do you do that an increasingly mobile and cloud and connected world where the attack vectors become more and more diverse and the target becomes richer right a more promising how do you approach that and you know as we think about that picture look at this this is the security industry isn't that just incredible right think about the complexity right of all of the products and services that industry has over a hundred billion years being spent on security and the cost of breaches is even greater and growing even faster and in that incredible complexity your job as IT leader is to make it all work fundamentally we the tech industry have failed you the customer it is simply too hard too complex and breaches are growing far too fast we need a new approach and fundamentally at VMware we believe there's three parts to this strategy that we need to do to restructure the solution and the industry first secure infrastructure where literally we need to build it in architect it in we need many of those components to go away they have to become native capabilities of the infrastructure itself second we need to deeply architect in with the ecosystem that controls the context the automation the validation the solution and work with key players like Palo Alto SecureWorks Symantec and again make many of those solutions standardized and go away and finally we got a return to the basics you know this is like a great sports team and a great sports team practices the basics over and over again I guess really good at it every major breach over the last five years that's made headlines Sony and OPM and target would have been tragic dramatically reduced or entirely eliminated if simple cyber hygiene policies were followed and we believe those cyber hygiene policies are really pretty straightforward you know we see that these five things right just like a sports team if we were doing these we would be so much better one is lease privilege unless you explicitly have access you don't second microsegmentation carve up the network it's like getting to the bank and just getting in the front lobby you've gotta know where you got many layers to get to the good stuff you know encryption when you steal my data you've just gotten a bag of bits if you don't have the key to go with it multi-factor you fish my password you got nothing unless you have that second or third of my multi-factor and patching what a cry in Pecha and these what we'll call cyber hygiene principles we're releasing a white paper today you know the simple principles of cyber hygiene and to us these are critical things that we got as an industry get back to the basic and we need to make the basics easy to do and this is a matter that is central to tech and to business but also a role for government and policy and we're thrilled to see a bipartisan effort coming together to drive at the government level and into industry and let's hear now from representative s you and Senator hatch on the topic of cyber hygiene hello VMworld I'm senator Orrin Hatch of Utah hello vmworld my name is Anna Eshoo with cyber hackers growing bolder in their attacks strengthening our cybersecurity infrastructure remains among my top priorities we know that the cyber networks of our country of our government how important they are to our national security VMware was very very essential in an effort that happily has been launched in the Congress I recently joined my good friend congresswoman Donna in introducing the bipartisan promoting good cyber hygiene act up to 90% of breaches are due to the lack of hygiene systems and good security management fortunately there are a few key principles that can help prevent many of these cyber attacks we're all in this together and we can all benefit from this together as well that's the most exciting part of it I look forward to continuing to work with my colleagues in Congress and with all of you so thank you to representative and senator hat so let's dig in a little bit more on this idea of secure infrastructure and we've been on a journey for several years to build more of these components into what we do with work space one secure apps right secure and with AirWatch secure devices and the two of those bringing together a consistent device and application across any corporate or BYO device in the network the number one use case for nsx has been micro segmentation this ability to compartmentalize and segregate networks encryption has traditionally been hard difficult and expensive now with v san it's simple and cost-effective and finally compute now yes we've never really used that compute layer as a security and layer before today that changes you know and most of security is about what we call chasing bad and if we think about a compute stack you typically have a operating environment and in that operating environment you have an operating system a number of processes are running and the typical application is made of many of these in the security process is chasing bad it's trying to find amongst these millions or billions of things going on that little piece of bad now that is really hard but can't we think about doing that a different way maybe ensuring goo and in fact chasing bad is like a needle-in-a-haystack there's a whole lot of hay to crawl through ensuring good is getting rid of most of the hay and just having a few straws to go look at you know literally flipping the security model on its head and that's exactly what app defense is app defense allows us to capture good right and we do that by first the provisioning environment we realized puppet being able to say this is the intended application combining that with machine learning the VM learns itself and develops a manifest for its own operation then a network service and API is that allowed right for network effects to be benefiting and from other parties to build on this second real-time detection the VM itself begins monitoring its behavior and it can immediately detect when its behavior deviates from good it is never okay to write the Master Boot Record of your OS image right you'll be tested this with petrol and want to cry and immediately the flags went off and finally we can automate response with app defense we can immediately trigger behaviors we can go into full packet capture we can honeypot services we can stop VMs we can issues alerts it really is game-changing to ensure good and you know while it's early and we just began shipping this this month extraordinary interest from the ecosystem of partners to work with a lot of enthusiasm for this game-changing approach and we're excited today to have with us mark from IBM to tell us about their embrace of app defense mark please join me on stage [Music] you don't man hey Marcia thank you for joining us it's great to be here Wow yeah yeah this is really great the energy is just wonderful and you know IBM you know you guys are known for a lot of things there's no Mendes history but security I don't think people realize how big and powerful and security you are yeah so I looked at that same image that you showed a few a few slides back about six years ago we looked at all that fragmented security marketplace all those vendors and decided to build a business at IBM based on analytics or a lot of huge firewall companies a lot of huge antivirus companies we didn't want to do something different right up IDM sally based on analytics and we built a business and today I have the honor of leading that like you do VMware I leave this business it's a huge honor 8,000 employees around the world 2 billion in revenue and we've become one of the largest enterprise players in the world and actually I was crammed into a JetBlue on the way here yesterday stuffed with I think almost all 20,000 people in this arena really they fit all in that one place yeah obviously it was amazing but we got got through it I was sitting next to a couple of really friendly customers of yours Andy and Paul and Paul was a user of a bunch of my capability q radar big fakes a bunch of other capability their solution and I kinda you know by the end of that long flight he kind of talked a little bit about we're announcing today excited because this really is a match made in heaven so our customers are gonna be excited about this good well let's go a little bit further there tell us you know what do you think about the VMware strategy that you just heard me articulate and app defense is a new capability well I'm very excited the VMware strategy first of all obviously fits very well with where IBM is headed both for IBM cloud and I'm representing IBM security and you know I'm excited about it and probably more credibly for all of you a lot of the geekiest people in my security team are really excited about app defense right so it does what you say right it reduces the attack surface immensely through how it locks down the system all those hygiene elements you mentioned from my perspective as a security analytics provider with thousands of customers using products like Q radar and their security operations centers it takes vm information from a security perspective from like a grainy almost you know still film to high-res live feeds hoo-wee it is a deep analytics behavioural engine that you guys are adding on top of your VMs that's providing me as a security company lots of data that I can do stuff with so I'm really excited about well that's so good here and obviously many of the analytics and Watson capabilities that IBM is investing in so heavily so talk a little bit about how we're gonna bring this to market together yep so today we're announcing a partnership in this area and we are collaborating on an application and what that's going to do is that application is going to bridge between app defense and our security operations and analytics technology so queue radar or Watson for cyber are resilient response to the orchestration technology so we're gonna we're making this applet be done by the end of the year and that will take all the information that visibility that out defense now provides it'll bring it into the security operation center and it'll start to combine it with all that we know about the rest of the environment it'll give context it'll give more analysis and it'll give action and actually today in the in the showroom here at the conference we are going to be we are showing what we can do here and we can literally go from finding that kind of instant like betcha and wanna cry to actually quarantine and taking action on the VM so it's a very powerful way of going from analytics context to orchestrating and action and defending better well you know Marc it's great to have the opportunity to just tell our audience a little bit more about what iBM is doing in security and our partnership thank you so much for joining us changing security turning the problem around restructuring the industry powerful powerful things you know in the comprehensive view of security right enabling secure infrastructure deeply integrated ecosystem and doing the simple things really consistently and well with cyber hygiene you know in our first spotlight session right after this keynote I'm Tom corn will be giving a live demonstration of app defense in operation will have a live attack and a live response using app defense and you know really encourage you to go see that session it really is exciting about how this turns security on its head you know it's been a tremendous few years together you think about the progress that we have made together it really is thrilling to see this any device any application world now being delivered through any cloud environment and stretching that to be even more pervasive what we do as an industry is reaching into the core infrastructure of the network out to the edge and reaching more machine connected devices than ever before you know transformation before our very eyes our agenda is to continue to innovate to continue to drive continue to envision the future so that you can realize business transformation and that you personally can realize your full potential as well together we can realize what's possible we're excited to share an example of how all this technology and innovation is brought together to bear fruit not just in technical or business terms but how we serve communities and save people's lives it's my pleasure to have red cross here with us on stage let's join us and see red cross right now [Applause] you know there's nothing more gratifying than being able to help other people really I think that's what we're meant to do on this earth when you're out in you're helping people and you drive through the neighborhood you see all of their belongings stacked up on the edge of the street you don't judge them you don't pick and choose you take him as you find him and you help them there's always going to be somewhere to go because the Red Cross is here they show up out of nowhere the Red Cross I don't know how they do it when they show up there's there's tots there's beds just blankets there's food there's water there's stuff all this stuff that will take care of people right right here right now right on the spot if it wasn't for the Red Cross we wouldn't have a place to go we wouldn't have the help these people who made us feel so welcome it was a blessing the Red Cross to me means someone that actually will listen to my story and care that someone not me is out there and and offered the help that y'all have offered well after that poignant video Dave I don't even have no to start but what an impact the American Red Cross is having on the world we think of hurricane Harvey maybe we'll start there you know this is a time where we want to be think about how we can help you guys have been having a tremendous impact we start with hurricane Harvey how was American Red Cross helping the world right now sure so as of right now I think we have about thirty four shelters open as of Saturday we had three thousand people in the shelters and they're expecting up to thirty thousand so we have a lot of resources on the ground there in Texas and Louisiana right now certainly for a lot of people the worst is yet to come so as we're all dry and very warm here in Vegas it's really hard to imagine the reality of some of these folks that are impacted by Harvey right now and will be for months and years to come so the Red Cross will be there doing casework for people affected for months and years to come after everybody's cleaned up and going great thank you for the impact you're having many of you are involved as you know volunteers your force actually is not just employees but you have a number of volunteers give us a sense of the scale of your operation both employees and volunteers at 20,000 employees roughly and over three hundred thousand volunteers helped to deliver the mission to Red Cross that's amazing can we give anybody of you who are volunteers a hand thank you we appreciate your service it's a fantastic organization and in that landscape when you think about your end-user landscape you were an early adopter of vsphere and then an early adopter of fusion and workstation adopted VDI and then AirWatch talk us have talked us about in this both employee and contract workforce why that end user landscape was very important to you sure well we're a mobile organization you know case in point with what's going on in Texas and Louisiana right now and flooding in Kansas and Missouri and wildfires in Oregon so we're really a mobile organization but our technology got behind so we weren't as mobile as we wanted to be so the acquisition of these technologies has helped us both on a mobility standpoint and also helped pave the way for us to deliver new modern technology whether it's hardware or whether it's software whether Windows 10 new browsers applications but still allow us align to the legacy line of business applications that aren't yet as modern and you see a world where whether it's the employees are these contractors they'll be able to get any app on their particular device it's a little cliche but it's really real for us any device anywhere and that's what we've been able to do and that's what we're still working towards and literally anywhere it means like anywhere in the world anywhere you can get internet that's awesome that's great it's amazing it's been a partnership I talked about that with the other customers - how is that partnership worked out between VMware and the American Red Cross very well we we've had a good partnership it's continuing to grow we've got great support from your organization all the way down it's awesome great to hear maybe as we close it'd be good to give the audience here a sense as to how many of them may be interested in helping sure how can the audience get involved in helping especially in this time around hurricane Harvey well as Pat said earlier certainly you know donations are always going to go directly towards helping the victims but there's other ways right you can give your time we in 2014 we started a home fire campaign so in your local community in since 2014 we've installed almost a million smoke alarms and saved 268 lives as a result so if you want to give up your time if you want to give blood as I do you can do that so it's not just dollars you can give blood you can give time and experience and the best way to do that is go to either your local chapter if you know where it is to go to red cross.org find out where your local chapter is or other ways to get involved I've donated blood before I'm going to do it again ladies and gentlemen give it up for de bola more thank your being with us thank you all right well VMworld and you guys having fun in this keynote all right Pat I think you and I can do a better job than Wolf Blitzer in Anderson Cooper so we got a future in this wonderful show what I'd like to do as we wrap up is just give you a sense as to what you're gonna be seeing over the course of the next couple of days and why we pick some of these tracks because as we looked at much of the way in which you're spending your dollars we follow CIOs surveys very rigorously we see hundreds of priorities and we boiled out from those hundreds of priorities eight there are some core areas that you're spending on typically cloud computing and security stands out among the top two you'll see other areas like digital transformation and mobile and then we honed and further to have the entire focus of our company around what we feel are three core priorities in infrastructure spending cloud mobile and security and that's what you heard through the course of the keynote today from Pat and mobile by the way it doesn't mean just a mobile device it means being on the move cloud doesn't mean just public cloud it means private cloud and public cloud and that's an essence what we've done with even the story of VMware when you think about our story we redefine the data center but we see that moving to the cloud we redefine the desktop and we see that move in increasingly mobile and security is a layer that surrounds all of it from the data center to the endpoint this one chart by the way is what I encourage all of my sales reps in the field to show rather than you know 100 powerpoints I usually tell people if you've got a hundred powerpoints it's usually no power and probably a very little point to it but this one chart gives you the sense of what VMware's transformational impact is across cloud mobile and security now if you take that cloud area what you're gonna see in the breakouts are two sub tracks modernizing the data center is all about the private cloud and ensuring you can get more and more cost and complexity run out of that because the private cloud does have a future as you saw from many of our customers integrator the public and II jazzy and fat talked about VMware an AWS a pioneering offering one of a kind of industry you're gonna hear more about that in that track and then in the mobile area it's all about a digital workspace you heard so eloquently from customers like Capital One any app on any device and finally we think through the power of nsx and app defense you can fundamentally transform networking the security one of the other things that's super exciting to us has been the level of involvement of you customers there's like 25,000 odd but we think will be here or watching in and there's 200 customers a record number that are presenting in tracks in here so if you are one of those customers presenting I want to give you a hand can we give the customers are presenting these breakout to hand here are two hundred of you and if you're feeling jealous of these folks are presenting we want more of you like twice the number next year this is a record for any show to have 200 of your doing this we have we have just a whole bunch of them that are doing you know many many aspects of this we think that as you do this these were just snap photos of many of you as you're preparing for this we think we can help you realize what's possible now quick plug before I wrap up for what's happening tomorrow super important we're gonna have a fireside chat with our Chairman Michael Dell and I senior fat girl singer and many of you have questions in your mind so if you log into the mobile app you can submit your question there's a very simple way you'll get an alert all the way up to midnight tonight and we actually have a very special secret announcement we're also gonna be making tomorrow which you don't want to miss so don't stay out too late and mr. morri you want to be here it's gonna be some incredible news and with that I want to wish you all an incredible conference the theme is helping every one of you realize what's possible thank you very much have a great vmworld [Music]
