VKernel announced the VKernel Solution Acceleration Kit, a collaborative effort with VMware to enable VMware Authorized Consultants (VACs) to build services for accelerating their customers’ virtual infrastructure adoption and operational readiness. 

With a suite of VMware certified virtual appliance for systems management that solve real-world issues, VKernel was chosen by VMware to be the vendor to deliver a solution acceleration kit. 

“As organizations scale virtual infrastructures with velocity, real-world problems, such as cost visibility, chargeback, and capacity bottlenecks, must be solved now,” said Alex Bakman, founder and CEO of VKernel.  “Our solution acceleration kit is providing the necessary tools, programs, and processes that VAC partners need to ensure successful VMware deployments for their customers.” 

Organizations are investing millions of dollars to grow their virtual environments.  As a result, they are facing new challenges that traditional systems management solutions cannot solve fast enough.  The VKernel Solution Acceleration Kit quickly demonstrates how fast VACs can build successful services around VKernel Virtual Appliance solutions.

The VKernel Virtual Appliance Suite for Systems Management is a set of “plug-and-play” virtual appliances designed to solve real-world systems management challenges as organizations migrate to VMware virtual environments.  VKernel products enable IT groups to solve today’s critical pain points by providing visibility into the capacity and resource consumption of each virtual machine.  VKernel is currently offering a Chargeback Virtual Appliance for gaining cost visibility and will soon introduce its Capacity Bottleneck Analyzer Virtual Appliance for identifying and eliminating capacity bottlenecks.
