Partner Network

For Software partners with applications fully supported by the partner and would like these applications tested by VMware to ensure reliable operation under fully-loaded conditions. These partner products should not integrate or interoperate with VMware products. Application Software products cannot use VMware application programming interfaces (APIs) or other mechanisms for integrating with or controlling VMware components.

For Hardware partners interested in highlighting their products models that have met VMware standards defined in relevant hardware test guides or test suites. Examples include server and storage array products.

For two types of partners.

1) Partners interested in integrating their products with VMware products using an SDK or API.
2) I/O partners interested in validating that their I/O devices work with VMware vSphere and VMware ESXi.

For Solution partners (Value Added Resellers) interested in validating that a Solution Architecture meets functional and scalability requirements set by VMware. With the VMware Ready Desktop Solutions program, the end-customer gets a validated desktop solution delivered by a VMware Premier Solution Provider Partner who has exhibited success in deployment of the reference implementation.

For independent hardware vendors (‘IHVs’) to qualify their Android mobile devices to support VMware Horizon MobileTM, which enables enterprises to securely customize and manage an employee’s corporate workspace in isolation from an employee’s personal environment on Android smartphones.

Select this option if you are not sure which VMware Ready category best meets your needs.
