VMware vSphere Foundation (VVF) is the load bearing Broadcom VMware compute virtualisation framework, anchoring the broader Broadcom VMware framework against the broader compute virtualisation market. VMware vSphere Foundation segments the broader VVF framework across the VVF compute framework (vSphere Standard plus vSphere Enterprise Plus capability tier), the VVF storage framework (vSAN), the VVF management framework (vCenter, Aria Operations), the VVF networking framework (NSX optional add on), the VVF Tanzu framework (Kubernetes optional add on), the VVF subscription framework (per core subscription pricing), and the bespoke VVF framework at the upper customer scale. This paper sets out the buyer side framework for VMware vSphere Foundation negotiation, the per core subscription framework, the VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) vs VVF framework, the Hyper V vs Nutanix vs VMware competitive framework, and the buyer side moves at the broader VVF renewal cycle. Read the related Broadcom VMware services practice, the Broadcom VMware knowledge hub, and the VMware negotiation playbook.
