Exit Broadcom VMware with a 5 phase plan.

What you will take away

• VCF and VVF are bundles. Per product VMware licensing has largely ended for new orders.
• Sixteen core minimums apply. Even small hosts now license at the minimum.
• Renewal uplift is real. Thirty to sixty percent is the common pattern.
• Four alternatives are credible. Nutanix, Proxmox, Azure Local, public cloud.
• Migration is phased, not flipped. Twelve to thirty six months across workload tiers.
