博通此前以690亿美元并购VMware，之后解雇了1300名VMware员工，并将VMware云服务“永久许可证”改为订阅制度。

　　目前VMware 宣布旗下59款产品已经结束供应，不再提供销售、支持、SaaS / 托管等服务，原先订阅59项产品的用户在订阅过期后需转用 VMware 最新推出的 Cloud Foundation或VMware vSphere Foundation订阅。

　　据悉，VCF订阅号称是面向用户全端基础设施需求的解决方案，提供包括vSphere、vSAN和NSX等服务，以及完整的Aria管理和调度工具；VVF则是VMWare针对传统vSphere环境中的数据中心提供的解决方案，包括Tanzu Kubernetes Grid、Aria Operations和Aria Operations for Logs等工具。

　　在VMware 博客中，官方声称“许多VMware的软件解决方案都将作为VCF和VVF的一部分提供”，这暗示只需使用少量功能的用户也需要花费更多预算购买 VCF或VVF订阅。

　　VMware还计划提供自带授权功能，允许用户从博通购买VCF订阅，并将这些订阅部署到经过VMware验证的云节点或本地数据中心。
