Major Changes Accompanying the Acquisition of VMware

With the acquisition of VMware by Broadcom, the VMware organizational structure will change greatly on a global level, and a revamp of the product portfolio will be offered along with changes to the licensing sales form have been announced. With these changes, all existing VMware users can expect that the next license renewal will come with a major price hike depending on the environment, and an increasing number of customers are considering a switch to a different hypervisor or cloud.

Change 1: Switch from a One-Time Purchase License to a Subscription-Based License

The sale of perpetual licenses will end and only subscription-based licenses will be sold. The provision of maintenance will end as well and users owning perpetual licenses will need to switch over to a subscription-based license at the time of maintenance contract renewal, increasing the cost the longer the contractual period is.

Change 2: Change in the License Counting Method

The count will change from per CPU to per core (purchase of a minimum of 16 Cores) raising the price depending on the environment. Furthermore, the purchase of licenses for individual products will be discontinued and licenses will be sold for product bundles, increasing the cost even if there is a function that is not being used.

Change 3: Discontinuation of OEM License Sales and Maintenance

The sale of VMware OEM licenses and maintenance by respective server manufacturers will discontinued. It is expected that users who own existing licenses will have to repurchase VMware by Broadcom original subscription-based licenses.
