We recently decided to move away from VMware after the Broadcom “takeover”. We have three scenarios to cover; datacenter setup, satellite offices (stand alone hosts) & hosting partners.
For stand alone it was an easy choice; proxmox. For datacenter; hyper-v. Hosting providers; VMware (their choice).
At the moment we are pushing our hosting providers for exit plans from VMware.
As a company we have taken the decision to not support Broadcom pricing structure if we can avoid it.
Lmao don’t go hyper v. Use Nutanix or something
Saying this as someone who is currently trying to get rid of hyperv internally
Nutanix is not my first choice…
They are almost as bad as VMware
Large companies telling broadcom to go suck a lemon, is definitely what can make a difference for the rest of us in the future… Definitely maybe, possibly make potential a difference.
