Broadcom Looking to Buy VMware? | Gestalt IT Rundown: May 25, 2022
The biggest shock to the virtualization community in months hit this past weekend when the press noted that chip giant Broadcom is in talks to purchase VMware. The former stepchild of Dell and EMC was spun off less than a year ago into a separate company. The news mentioned that Broadcom has been looking to expand their software portfolio and VMware would join CA and Symantec in the Broadcom suite. Community reaction to the news was largely negative, with many analysts weighing in on the potential for disaster for VMware customers. This and more on this week's Rundown.
