Yosemite Technologies is a member of VMware's Technology Alliance Partner Program. As a VMware partner Yosemite develops innovative data protection solutions for VMware customers operating in a virtual environment.

Yosemite and VMware are committed to delivering proven solutions designed to address the variety of daily challenges IT organizations face. Combining solutions from each provider ensures a customer's data protection environment will have superior performance, flexibility and scalability with added value and simplicity.

VMware is the world's leading provider of virtualization solutions and services. Through a pioneering virtualization approach, VMware solutions separate the operating system and application software from the underlying hardware, delivering significant improvements in efficiency, availability, flexibility and manageability.

Yosemite Technologies confirms that we will support customers running Yosemite Backup on supported Operating Systems in a VMware virtual machine environment.

Yosemite Technologies will provide unqualified support for Yosemite Backup running in a VMware virtual environment in an identical manner as with Yosemite Backup running on any other major x86 based systems without initially requiring reproduction of issues on native hardware. Should Yosemite Technologies suspect that the virtualization layer is the root cause of an incident; the customer will be required to contact the appropriate VMware support provider to resolve the VMware issue.

While Yosemite Technologies' products are expected to function properly in a VMware virtual environment, there may be performance implications which can invalidate Yosemite Technologies typical sizing and recommendations.
