Broadcom Redefines VMware | The Gestalt IT Rundown: February 28, 2024

Published: Feb. 28, 2024, 6:11 p.m.

In a series of bold moves, Broadcom has restructured VMware shifting to subscription-only licenses across all offerings. Broadcom CEO Hock Tan wants VMware to focus on resiliency, developer efficiency, and infrastructure efficiency. Tan outlines three key strategies: radical simplification, substantial R&D investment for on-premises to private cloud solutions, and enhancing the ecosystem. The discontinuation of products, including Aria SaaS and Carbon Black, and divesture of EUC is part of a plan to streamline VMware's portfolio into bundled suites. Reactions are decidedly mixed, but we are starting to see the strategy come together.
