Although VMware vSphere has been the de facto hypervisor standard in data centers for decades, the recent acquisition by Broadcom has sparked a change in the market. VMware now offers a select few software bundles, primarily VMware Cloud Foundation, which consolidates many products into a single subscription, usually at a much higher price than the previous à la carte license model.

This new operating model has compelled VMware clients to choose to either adopt the full capabilities of the VMware Cloud Foundation suite to maximize the value of the license and associated spend, or migrate to a new hypervisor or hosting model. Both paths have numerous infrastructure decisions to consider and can have a substantial business impact.

In this whitepaper, we’ll discuss the benefits of VMware Cloud Foundation, why many organizations choose VMware long-term, the potential challenges of adopting a new hypervisor, and how AHEAD helps to ease the transition.
