Edge
VMware has expanded its data center management construct out to the Edge. Think VMware vSphere and running it on small FPGA-powered devices and managed centrally. There’s a SASE and EUC component, but the new stuff is around vSphere to the Edge.
See their announcement with Nvidia and Lenovo.
Tanzu
VMware is further embracing developers by announcing a community version of Tanzu. If you don’t quite understand what is a Tanzu, being able to put your fingers on it helps.
Multicloud
Any…Any…Any - You’ve heard it before over the past 5-years. It’s just a new CEO Saying it. VMworld 2021 is no different. Except VMware has rolled much of its application development tooling in the Tanzu brand.
There’s a new carrot. VMware announced it would manage Tanzu on top of VMC on AWS as a value-add.
