Virtualization in Containers (KubeVirt, OpenShift Virtualization)

In this episode, we dive deeper into the new architectural trends for infrastructure designers in this coming decade, which is a transition from virtualization platforms first like VMware into containerized platforms first. But this time, we talk through the use of virtualization in containerized systems – keeping VMs but with what changes are necessary to make a containerized virtualization platform dominant instead of a virtualized virtualization platform.

Broadcom Creates Chaos & Opportunity

We dive into the chaos created by Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware. In this episode, we discuss what Broadcom is doing, why it’s a problem, how enterprises are reacting, and what alternatives are on the market.

We cover the whole mess in all its glory, and even provide some love for Broadcom.

VMware Explore Retrospective

VMware Explore is a show at the end of August where VMware brings together its community, its vendors and tells what’s going on. VMware is dominating in their market, they are making the right moves, and doing a good job for their customers and their partners. This is a surprising summary of the conversation, because this conclusion is certainly not where we started out.

In this conversation, we start from the position of VMware not doing what it needs to do. It’s fumbling its message, it’s not doing the right things. Then we talk through all of the things that contribute to VMware’s position in the market.

If you listen through, the conversation follows a fascinating path to our concluding position.
