Can VMware's Private Cloud Spur The Demise Of Siloed Tech?
SearchCloudComputing, Wednesday, September 4th, 2024
The private-cloud-centric future VMware presents could benefit enterprises if it continues to innovate and deliver an integrated, full-stack private cloud its customers want.
To kick off VMware Explore 2024, Broadcom CEO Hock E. Tan delivered a harsh truth during his keynote address, saying, "You inherited legacy data centers, which has created best of breed in compute, in storage and in networking. You are very siloed; you are so screwed."
That statement perfectly encapsulates both the fundamental limitation hindering contemporary private cloud environments and the internal inefficiencies in VMware's product development -- inefficiencies that Broadcom claims to have remedied following its 2023 acquisition of VMware.
