The Right Solution to VMware's Wrong Moves

 

The sweeping changes that Broadcom has made to VMware this year—moving to a subscription model, removing free products, and adding extraneous expensive components, just to name a few—have left users extremely frustrated. Along with massive price hikes reportedly up to 1200%, customers feel undervalued and are actively searching for alternatives. 

Broadcom has been busy making all the wrong moves with VMware.

In response, Data Intensity has been conducting low-touch technical feasibility assessments—including ROI analysis and recommendations—for clients looking to migrate away from on-premise VMware management. Findings have shown the Oracle Cloud VMware Solution (OCVS), which allows users to migrate VMware environments without the need to rearchitect applications or overhaul existing processes, to be the best option. Clients’ VMware workloads are migrated to OCVS, then refactored to remove their dependence on VMware.

In this session you'll learn what makes OCVS different, how VMware customers maintain operational continuity while migrating, the benefits of Oracle’s high-performance, scalable cloud infrastructure, and see real numbers showing the average 30% savings of OCVS over other cloud providers. Data Intensity’s Chief Solutions Officer, James White, will share results from a recent client's Cloud Platform Assessment to help attendees understand the financial and business drivers. Oracle Ace Director Biju Thomas, Data Intensity’s SVP of Digital Transformation, will discuss the technical and licensing advantages of making a move. 

Don’t miss this opportunity to ask our migration experts your questions while exploring your options.
