Earlier this year, I offered up the point of view that change is never easy. And as we approach the one year anniversary of VMware joining Broadcom, some of the biggest changes appear to be paying off. We are leaner, more focused, have strong execution, and are delivering against our innovation roadmap. We’re also seeing strong customer momentum for our core offerings VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) and VMware vSphere Foundation (VVF).
What I should have also added was that change is also constant. Starting in November 2024, I’m excited to announce the continued evolution of the VCF portfolio.
VMware Cloud Foundation continues as our flagship solution providing a comprehensive, integrated private cloud platform that delivers public cloud scale and agility with on-premises security, resilience and performance, and low overall total cost of ownership across on-premises, the edge, and public and partner clouds.
To give our customers a more powerful and valuable enterprise-class HCI solution for running VMs and containers with IT infrastructure optimization, we will be increasing the amount of vSAN capacity included in VMware vSphere Foundation by 2.5x to 250 GiB per core. And to round out the portfolio, for customers who are focused on compute virtualization, we will now have two options, VMware vSphere Enterprise Plus and VMware vSphere Standard. The entire VCF portfolio is available to all end user customers through our distribution channel or directly from Broadcom.
This combination of added customer choice among our product offerings, along with flexible subscription length, price, and payment flexibility within our per-core subscription model highlight Broadcom’s commitment to our customers. We continue to listen to our customers and partners, providing additional choice and value, while staying true to our business transformation strategy which we believe will benefit customers and partners alike.
