Cloudsimple

CloudSimple was an enterprise software company that ran secure, dedicated VMware workloads (VMware Cloud Foundation - vSphere, vSAN, NSX) as a managed service on public clouds, originally partnering with Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure. Google Cloud acquired CloudSimple in November 2019 and folded the technology into Google Cloud VMware Engine; the standalone company, product, and developer surface no longer exist. The former domain (cloudsimple.com) resolves to a Google-owned IP but serves no live website, documentation, or API. This profile was surfaced as a portfolio company of Mayfield and Redpoint Ventures and remains in the API Evangelist network as a historical / defunct-provider record; there is no active API surface to enrich.

Cloudsimple is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Defunct, Acquired, Cloud Computing, and VMware.
