Technology Innovation is What Keeps Companies Competitive
Johan van Amersfoort
Partnership with #DellEMC is great in all sorts of ways. Managing your Dell endpoints Bios with AIrWatch, VMware Cloud Foundation on Dell Servers, etc..
Matthew Bunce
Partnership with @DellEMC drives value for both their customers and allows them to deliver market leading software and hardware.
Matthew Bunce
Will we see AirWatch integrated in to Dell hardware? Sanjay mentions BIOS level integration - Interesting concept!
Giuliano Bertello
What's good for VMware it's good for Dell Technologies family! VMware will remain independent, no doubt on that
Sam McGeown
says a DellEMC employee!
Matthew Bunce
Will NSX-T become opensource? Why use VMware over opensource? What's best fit?
Sam McGeown
VMware have a dedicated part of the OCTO to look at contributing to OSS
Matthew Bunce
No plans for open source NSX-T - Focus is on opening up the API to build a community around the product. Allow open source community to consume via API.
Sam McGeown
Open APIs over open source
Matthew Bunce
The @vmwarecode initiative shows how committed VMware are to opensource and more and more products are being released as open source via GitHub
Niels Hagoort
Interesting to hear how VMware is helping us managing edge devices. A lot of challenges in that area. #VMworld
Matthew Bunce
The last 5+ years has been bringing compute back to the data centre and now it needs to move out to the edge as the amount of data increases in magnitude every day!
Niels Hagoort
The future includes Brontobytes and Geobytes!!!
Matthew Bunce
AI is becoming more prevalent not just in research but in enterprise and industry. A massive shift is going to happen. Drive by data - IoT will drive compute to the edge! #VMworld
Amit Panchal
Good point - something that we covered in our podcast yesterday that edge is important but the core is where we will still drive business value
Sam McGeown
No surprises that what Pat, Sanjay and Ray see as the next 5 years are the themes at #VMworld
Niels Hagoort
AI, ML, IoT... so much cool innovation going on! #VMworld
Giuliano Bertello
Sanjay: VIC will continue, it's not dying at all, but we are looking at new strategies and where the rest of the world is moving for instance container Networking with NSX in Kubernetes & Cloud Foundry
