VMware Edge Compute Stack brings you: -VMware Edge Cloud Orchestrator (VECO) for simplified orchestration of large-scale edge infrastructure -Pull-based architecture for ECS hosts to ease scaling -Single-node deployments for resource constrained environments -De-coupled management and control plane and automated updates

Enterprise infrastructure is not a one-size-fits-all solution. For data center environments, Broadcom's VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) offers an exceptional fit. However, many of our customers are generating, analyzing and acting upon a dramatically increasing amount of data at the Edge – which has its own unique challenges. They require a solution tailored for running applications effectively and achieving their business outcomes in their edge locations (think factory floors, retail stores, electric substations - just to name a few). For these environments, Broadcom's VMware Edge Compute Stack (ECS) is the ideal solution. It’s Zero-touch pull-based Orchestration, Edge Fleet Management, Automatic updates, and a Decoupled management and control plane, addresses the core problems hindering effective edge operations. Our latest release, ECS 3.5, makes automation and orchestration across hundreds or thousands of sites and edge devices seamless. The edge is fundamentally different from the data center, and with Broadcom, our customers are truly spoiled for choice! VCF and ECS come together to give our customers an unbeatable, end to end, advantage competing in the marketplace. Embrace the edge with VMware Edge Compute Stack (ECS) and discover a new level of performance and efficiency for your applications! https://lnkd.in/g_fjGgwW #edgecomputing #EdgeAI #softwaredefined #ECS #SDE #Broadcom

VMware ECS (Edge compute stack) is a new stack to face digital modernization and scale massive Edge Computing. It will solve challenges for different workloads and use cases like: Factory 4.0, Private 5G NW, Large Automation, Robots controls, virtual PLC and many others according to customers need! Let's have a talk about.

Analyst firm Gartner has published its 2024 Hype Cycle for Data Center Infrastructure Technologies, and added virtual-to-physical migrations – aka "devirtualization" – to its list of ideas that are set to take off, thanks to Broadcom's licensing changes. "As on-premises virtualization projects move from [enterprise license agreement] ELA and perpetual licenses to new bundling, socket-to-core ratios and consumption models, the costs and pricing can increase two or three times," the Hype Cycle opines. Those costs are hard to justify for some large workloads, which Gartner wrote "do not benefit from the same density increases and cost savings as consolidating small workloads." Devirtualization can therefore help, Gartner argues – with plenty of caveats about the cost and complexity of acquiring and operating bare metal systems that offer the same resilience as a virtualized environment.

https://lnkd.in/gTK2MUHV De-virtualization and Re-virtualization - possible solutions to Broadcom pricing model changes⁉️ Broadcom's VMware acquisition and subsequent licensing changes demonstrates the repercussions of near monopoly power and its impact on pricing (2-3 X more) for captive clients, in the absence of alternatives Gartner’s 2024 Hype Cycle for Data Center Infrastructure Technologies report makes a sensational prediction. The landscape of data center infrastructure is shifting dramatically, influenced by recent licensing changes from Broadcom which is capitalising on its VMware acquisition, to drive up costs. This is prompting enterprises to reevaluate their virtualization strategies. Result - a new trend — devirtualization, a process of migrating workloads from virtual to physical environments — is taking shape in response to these changes. Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware will not only have implications for costs but also for resilience, availability and portability of the workload. This is because the transition from enterprise license agreements to more complex consumption models, can force businesses to pay 2-3 times more. This is especially sub-optimal for large workloads that do not benefit from the density increases and cost savings ensuing from consolidating smaller workloads. To increase revenues and profits Broadcom merged many VMware products into two main offerings: VMware Cloud Foundation and VMware vSphere Foundation. As a result, VMware customers can no longer purchase perpetual licenses or just the ESXi hypervisor on its own. In response some companies are ditching virtual machines and switching back to physical computers for specific workloads. This “devirtualization,” can offer cost savings but comes with the added complexity of managing physical hardware. This implies that you can't access cloud computing and the associated benefits. However this option is at an embryonic stage. Another potential option is revirtualization” or virtual-to-virtual migrations, which is about moving from VMWare to another hypervisor vendor, who can offer a subscription licence. 5-20% of firms have already adopted it. However the challenges are high TCO and operational challenges encountered in migrating to the new platform. Also there are no immediate solutions available for both. We are years away before it will come to fruition and deliver results.

NOTE: There is a clear paradigm shift - In addition to the de-virtualization and re-virtualization, I am discussing here, I also discussed WebAssembly as an alternative to virtualization, which manages thousands of functions. Here a binary can be built on Windows and deployed to UNIX, Linux or macOS. Further , cloud computing by itself is undergoing a paradigm shift due to emergence of trends such as co-location and cloud repatriation (as an alternative to cloud computing), and rise of alternatives to serverless technology - edge computing and multi clouds. I had written about them in my earlier posts.
