Partners with AWS, IBM, Microsoft, and VMware
Earlier this year, VMware signed deals with IBM and Microsoft. The companies will work together to help regulated industries and enterprises migrate their workloads to the cloud. The partnership will also enhance VMware’s capabilities in the cloud market.
VMware’s main deal with AWS is designed to help customers run mission-critical workloads on Amazon’s public cloud. The partnership allows customers to use their existing assets and processes to run VMware software on AWS. It provides them with more flexibility, less infrastructure sprawl, and lower operating costs.
VMware and IBM also announced an expanded partnership at VMware Explore 2022. The companies will work together to develop a joint go-to-market strategy. This will help companies move their workloads to the cloud while preserving VMware investments.
IBM is also a premier-tier service provider on AWS. It is an AWS partner for business development, and has more than 100 dedicated resources for business development.

Conclusion
The Middle East region, which includes North Africa, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, continues to experience a modest recovery, with passenger numbers forecast to reach 98% of the 2019 level by 2024. The region will also benefit from an expected shift in passenger preferences toward short-haul travel. However, with limited short-haul markets, the Middle East region’s recovery is expected to be slower than other regions. Similarly, the Asia-Pacific market is expected to recover to 109% of the 2019 level by 2025. However, downside risks are possible due to tighter global financial conditions and a weaker than expected recovery in the region.
