VMware customers are jumping ship as Broadcom sales continue - here's where they're moving to

Following Broadcom's $61 billion acquisition of VMware, the company has made significant changes that have resulted in the loss of customers. Broadcom's decision to remove free products and transition to a subscription-based model has left many VMware users exploring alternative options. A recent community survey revealed that open-source solutions such as KVM-based and Xen-based hypervisors are preferred by a majority of respondents, indicating a shift towards open-source infrastructure. The survey also highlighted the dominance of open-source Linux in various domains, further emphasizing the growing strength of open-source alternatives. Broadcom's restructuring of VMware's offerings has prompted this accelerated adoption of open-source solutions.
