Protect Your IT Investments Amid VMware's Acquisition by Broadcom
Published on 01 Aug 2024
Broadcom's acquisition of VMware has raised customer concerns about changes in pricing, support, and future product investments. Broadcom’s consolidation of VMware offerings into two bundles may lead to increased costs as individual products are phased out. Additionally, higher levels of support are only available with more expensive solutions, potentially requiring customers to overprovision for desired support.
To reduce exposure to these risks, consider limiting additional investments in VMware, converting workloads to a new platform, or rebalancing workloads between on-premises and the cloud. Nutanix delivers a unified platform for consistent operations and data services across cloud, edge, and core environments. Here are four strategies to help you reduce risk while modernizing your IT infrastructure and preparing your business for a hybrid multi-cloud future.
Construct for the Future on a Present day Platform
Nutanix can offer assistance to move forward with certainty without abating down innovation. Run Nutanix, including our integrated Nutanix AHV hypervisor, for AI, modern apps, and other new workloads while retaining your legacy SAN for existing workloads.
Replace Your Bequest SAN with Nutanix Cloud Stage
Swap complexity for simplicity by replacing your traditional SAN infrastructure with the Nutanix Cloud Platform (NCP), which delivers a cloud-like experience with optimized performance and high availability for AI, cloud-native apps, and traditional business-critical apps.
