VMware Lab Manager enables application development and test teams to create and deploy even the most complex multi-tier system and network configurations on demand in a matter of seconds.
QA engineers can capture test configurations “in state” in the library and share them with developers in local or remote locations to eliminate guesswork when trying to troubleshoot and resolve defects.
Integrations with leading test management, build automation tools and custom scripts through the VMware Lab Manager API provide additional automation benefits.
- Demo Environments: Sales engineers, product managers and trade show staff can set up, capture and reset virtual machine configurations for demo environments in seconds. VMware Lab Manager allows for simultaneous deployment of identical machines with no risk of network conflicts. Users can access demo lab resources remotely through a secure connection to the corporate network, making your demo equipment portable and available around the clock.
- Hands-on labs: Set up, tear down and configure lab infrastructure for hands-on training classes, and quickly create and deploy virtual machines to students before each class. Being able to scale a training environment with the number of participants reduces infrastructure cost and increases the effectiveness of the training service being offered.
Protect your lab infrastructure from hardware failures and increase quality of service for lab users by taking full advantage of high availability and distributed resource scheduling capabilities only available.
VMware Lab Manager lets you pool and share resources to meet the needs of users resulting in maximum utilization—and increased cost savings.
With VMware Lab Manager, your outsourcing partners can remotely access your software lab in a secure environment that you control. IT administrators get the flexibility to quickly add, remove or replace outsourced resources as the business needs of the organization change.
Strong access control helps to keep intellectual property secure in the VMware Lab Manager environment while eliminating time-consuming and costly replication of equipment in your partners’ lab.
