  • For Immediate Release Vmware Completes Acquisition of Pivotal
    For Immediate Release VMware Completes Acquisition of Pivotal VMware, Combined with Pivotal, Committed to Connecting Infrastructure and Application Owners to Accelerate Software Delivery and Drive Business Outcomes PALO ALTO, Calif., December 30, 2019 – VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW), a leading innovator in enterprise software, today announced it has completed the acquisition of Pivotal Software, Inc. (“Pivotal”), a leading cloud-native platform provider. As a result of the completion of the acquisition, Pivotal’s Class A common stock was removed from listing on the New York Stock Exchange with trading suspended prior to the open of the market today, and Pivotal will now operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of VMware. The transaction represented an enterprise value for Pivotal of approximately $2.7 billion. Pivotal’s offerings will be core to the VMware Tanzu portfolio of products and services designed to help customers transform the way they build, run and manage their most important applications, with Kubernetes as the common infrastructure substrate. The combination of Pivotal’s developer-centric offerings with VMware’s upstream Kubernetes run-time infrastructure and management tools will deliver a comprehensive enterprise solution that enables dramatic improvements in developer productivity in the creation of modern applications. VMware is able to offer product building blocks and integrated solutions that are tested and proven with technical expertise that customers need to accelerate software delivery across data center, cloud and edge environments. “It's my pleasure to announce Ray O'Farrell as the leader of VMware’s new Modern Applications Platform business unit—uniting the Pivotal and VMware Cloud Native Applications teams,” said Pat Gelsinger, CEO, VMware.

  • Running Kubernetes on Dell EMC Hyperconverged Infrastructure
    Running Kubernetes on Dell EMC Hyperconverged Infrastructure: Accelerating the Shift to Cloud Native Kubernetes empowers developers by automating the provisioning and operations of cloud infrastructure using containers. This new strategy creates more time to focus on building applications vs. managing the infrastructure to enable them. In an era of increasingly agile development and geographically distributed teams, code and data, containers enable innovation and rapid response. Containerized apps rely on orchestration tools, like Kubernetes, to manage multiple containers in production, yet Kubernetes is one component of an all-encompassing change in infrastructre. So, cloud native development comes with challenges beyond a decision to use Kubernetes. Site Reliability Engineers owns responsibility for the containers, workload portability, development tools, and the overall infrastructure. Building and managing that infrastructure involves new costs, learning curves, security concerns, and policy management. These factors are delaying deployment of Kubernetes—and stalling adoption of cloud native development. These delays impact time-to-market and competitiveness for the enterprise. The entire business must pause to calculate the costs, time, risks and talent of a cloud native environment. In response to these challenges, Dell EMC offers a portfolio of integrated solutions with Kubernetes to accelerate cloud native adoption.
