Broadcom on Tuesday released VMware Tanzu Data Services, a new “advanced service” for VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF), at VMware Explore Barcelona. VMware Tanzu for MySQL: “The classic web application backend that optimizes transactional data handling for cloud native environments.” Is it comprehensive?
Broadcoms decisions to replace perpetual VMware software licenses with subscriptions and to eliminate point products in favor of an expensive bundle of private cloud tools are driving longtime VMware customers to look for an exit strategy. There is no like-for-like replacement for the VMware hypervisor on the market, Delory points out.
Interest in the open-source network operating system SONiC is rising as major networking vendors and start-ups look to offer resources to help enterprises give SONiC a try. The Linux-based NOS was created by Microsoft for its Azure datacenters and then open-sourced by Microsoft in 2017. What is SONiC?
But with the challenges surrounding Broadcoms acquisition of VMware and rumors of VMware customer defections , VergeIO has emerged as an alternative option. At the core of VergeIOs offering is its VergeOS platform, which takes a fundamentally different approach compared to traditional virtual infrastructure solutions like VMware.
Since then, AI vendors leapfrogged one another in capabilities and features, and a multitude of open-source models hit the scene, offering lower cost or more specialized alternatives. VMware and Nvidia’s joint platform became generally available this past May, and supports Nvidia’s AI models, tools, and frameworks. “We
A year ago, VMware’s big annual VMware Explore conference was all about generative AI – specifically, about companies running AI applications within a hybrid cloud infrastructure. This year, attendees heard more about VMware’s partnership with Nvidia to deliver generative AI models and tools – but in the context of a private cloud.
The landscape of datacenter infrastructure is shifting dramatically, influenced by recent licensing changes from Broadcom that are driving up costs and prompting enterprises to reevaluate their virtualization strategies. Clients are seeing increased costs with on-premises virtualization with Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware.
high-performance computing GPU), datacenters, and energy. Talent shortages AI development requires specialized knowledge in machine learning, data science, and engineering. Instead, they leverage opensource models fine-tuned with their custom data, which can often be run on a very small number of GPUs.
VMware is offering organizations a flexible multi-cloud purchasing and consumption solution that aims for consistency in infrastructure across every cloud, so that migration now and in the future is seamless and less complex. But multi-cloud environments will quickly lose their allure if their operations are not seamless.
IBM said today that it will make CloudFoundry a component of its open cloud architecture and work with Pivotal on further development of the CloudFoundry opensource project and establishing an open governance model for the community. Google, IBM Team on DataCenter Research. Modular DataCenters.
At its Evolve24 annual data and AI conference this week, Cloudera announced the Cloudera AI Inference Service, which leverages Nvidia’s NIM microservices. Nvidia NIMs are packaged-up open-source generative AI applications , such as Llama and Mistral, together with APIs and the accelerators needed to run them most effectively on Nvidia’s GPUs.

Broadcom’s VMware unit: VMware SASE was developed in-house and includes SD-WAN, ZTNA, CASB, FWaaS, and SWG. In addition to the standard SASE features, VMware offers DLP, URL filtering, and remote browser isolation. VMware is a leader in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for WAN Edge Infrastructure. FWaaS is not offered.
Big Switch Networks is trying to introduce a level of network agility that is currently missing from most datacenter environments, according to Big Switch's Prashant Ghandi. IT organizations want to be able to embrace an open SDN platform that supports both NSX and emerging opensource.
Don’t companies have the same issue for datacenters on-premise? We are focusing first on leveraging AI and generative AI capabilities within existing SaaS tools and only then explore proprietary or open-source AI accelerators or models,” the CIO says. “We
Insights into DataCenter Infrastructure, Virtualization, and Cloud Computing. The VMware vCloud approach, arguably dominant in the enterprise space, and being partially adopted by large service providers. The open-sourced OpenStack.org effort. DataCenter Infrastructure Management Market research report.
The more I think about it the strategy of VMware joining OpenStack is starting to make more and more sense. Similar I don’t believe VMware and OpenStack compete at even the datacenter layer or Cloud layer for that matter. Why not an open project such as OpenStack? Instead of challenging OpenStack VMware embraced it.

This is a liveblog of IDF 2014 session DATS009, titled “Ceph: OpenSource Storage Software Optimizations on Intel Architecture for Cloud Workloads.” The speaker is Anjaneya “Reddy” Chagam, a Principal Engineer in the Intel DataCenter Group. Orchestration (OpenStack, VMware). Management.
By Jeff Carpenter You might have heard of Apache Cassandra, the open-source NoSQL database. Nothing on the market could handle the hundreds of millions of users that were on the platform at peak times, spread across tens of thousands of servers spread across datacenters around the world.
VMware recently enhanced its vSphere Integrated Containers with two new opensource projects, Admiral and Harbor, that could boost management capabilities for production containerized applications.
In addition to VMware and Hyper-V, enterprises also want to be able to monitor opensource XenServer and Xen Project hypervisors that have been embraced by many cloud service providers Read More.
Trying to kill time on the plane on my way to VMworld 2013; my mind got to wondering what VMware needs to show at VMworld 2013 in order to maintain their position within the enterprise. VMware has some great technology. Microsoft, Citrix and opensource hypervisors have quickly become good enough for basic virtualization use cases.
This is my usual collection of links, thoughts, rants, and ideas about datacenter-related technologies. Bruce Davie and Martin Casado (with Nicira, now part of VMware) have written a post comparing the VXLAN and STT tunneling protocols. Is this the beginning of the datacenter fractal edge ? Networking.
Most IT vendors agree that more extensive use of automation and orchestration in today’s datacenters are beneficial to customers. I believe that creating an opensource solution to the policy problem will further the cause of cloud computing and the transformation of our industry. Thinking About OpenSource.
Today, VMware is expected to talk more about containers, end-user computing, and other topics not covered in yesterday’s general session (which focused heavily on Cross-Cloud Services, VMware’s new set of SaaS-based offerings for multi-cloud management). Poonen “passes the baton” to Ray O’Farrell, EVP and CTO of VMware.

Macintosh Networking Security Storage Virtualization Automation iSCSI OpenFlow OpenStack Puppet SDN VMware' Networking. Interesting.
That’s right, it’s time for yet another collection of links and articles from around the Internet on various datacenter-related technologies, products, projects, and efforts. Nice use of VMware Fusion in part 2, by the way.). It makes me wonder when VMware will announce support for CoreOS on vCloud Air.
Expand and deepen datacenter networking fundamentals. Making progress on CCNP was one of my 2012 goals, but it didn’t really fit in with the rest of my focus areas (which were almost all centered in the datacenter). This also ties in nicely with my new job role at Nicira/VMware.
Today I have another collection of datacenter technology links, articles, thoughts, and rants. Matt Klein breaks down service mesh components , using terms networking professionals know well, like “data plane” and “control plane.” This is pretty cool: a WYSIWYG topology designer for VMware NSX.
Until then, here’s some datacenter-related articles and links for your enjoyment. Customers don’t care about datacenters, or DevOps pipelines, or toolkits…they just care about being able to do whatever it is you offer (buy stuff, consume a service, whatever). Networking. Cloud Computing/Cloud Management.
As usual, I’ve gathered what I hope to be a useful but varied collection of articles and links on key datacenter technologies. And while we are on the topic of Linux and opensource in the networking industry…read this entertaining and informative article on the importance of (truly) opensource libraries in networking.

In any case, here’s another collection of links and articles from around the Net on the major datacenter technology areas. I recently came across a couple useful troubleshooting guides, one for Open vSwitch (OVS) and OpenStack Neutron and one for VMware NSX. VMware recently GA’d version 6.2 Have fun reading!
This is a fascinating (to me, at least) paper on the implications of non-volatile storage on today’s datacenters (and datacenter hardware). Dwayne Sinclair (an NSX SE at VMware) has a write-up on what micro-segmentation is not. Servers/Hardware. Good stuff here—I highly recommend reading this paper.
Now that I’m starting to get settled into my new role at Heptio, I’ve managed to find some time to pull together another collection of links and articles pertaining to various datacenter technologies. VMware has released a PowerCLI preview/fling for NSX-T; Kyle Ruddy has a write-up here. Feedback is always welcome!
