From VMware to OpenStack: Redefining the Virtualization Landscape with Open Source Software

Audience:

Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware disrupted the global virtualization market where VMware previously held 40% market share. Now, customers are re-evaluating their strategy and turning to cloud-native solutions. Over 80% of OpenInfra Members have already received requests to migrate users from VMware to OpenStack and over 60% of members have already completed a successful migration. Join us as we zero in on the virtualization market in North America and hear how OpenStack providers are building cloud-native migration strategies for their customers. Our panel of experts will be moderated by Jimmy McArthur, Director, Business Development at OpenInfra Foundation. 

Topics for discussion: 

  • Feature parity between OpenStack and VMware 

  • Migration options from VMware 

  • Findings from our recently published white papers 

  • How modern open source solutions provide a safe harbor from proprietary vendor lock-in 

  • How you can collaborate with OpenInfra Foundation Members to seize this business opportunity
