Has VMware Finally Caught Up With Kubernetes?
- VMware has historically been a key player in Kubernetes management and infrastructure services.
- However, prior to being acquired by Broadcom in 2024, VMware's Kubernetes IP was underutilized.
- The integration of VMware's Tanzu Kubernetes platform and vSphere control plane under VMware Cloud Foundation has streamlined offerings.
- The Broadcom acquisition prompted VMware to focus on aligning its stack with customer needs for Kubernetes management.
- VMware shifted its development focus from the Tanzu application layer to the VCF infrastructure platform under Broadcom.
- VCF now supports running VMs and containers side by side, emphasizing the integration of Kubernetes and vSphere.
- The VMware Supervisor Cluster in vSphere acts as a Kubernetes control plane, enhancing infrastructure management.
- VCF has evolved to offer a declarative and scalable approach for running cloud native apps.
- VMware aims to provide the latest Kubernetes updates within two months of release to align with industry standards.
- While VMware boasts secure Kubernetes offerings, it still lacks some platform services compared to hyperscalers.

VMware distributor Arrow says minimum software subs set to jump from 16 to 72 cores
- The French limb of Arrow, a global tech distributor, has informed VMware partners that the minimum number of cores required for VMware licenses will increase from 16 to 72 cores per command line.
- This means that customers with a single eight-core processor will have to pay for 72 cores, resulting in paying for 64 cores of software they cannot use.
- Broadcom, which has introduced penalties for customers not renewing their subscription licenses, will impose a 20% increase over the quoted price for the first year of a renewed subscription.
- These changes suggest that VMware intends to raise costs for smaller customers, as Broadcom focuses on larger and more lucrative customers.
