Virtualization Vendors Ramp Alternative Private Cloud Stacks
9.1
Relevance Score
Rival virtualization vendors this month issued a wave of product updates: OpenNebula 7.0 (last week) adds Arm support, NVIDIA-compatible PCI passthrough and a redefined cloud-edge orchestration engine; Red Hat’s OpenShift Virtualization reached 4.19 with cloud-provider previews and smart resource allocation; Nutanix 7.3 introduced a multicluster virtual switch. HPE announced Veeam support for Morpheus VM Essentials, reflecting pushback against Broadcom's VMware Cloud Foundation 9 and licensing concerns.
Why This Matters
Broad vendor updates substantially expand VMware alternatives, tempered by incremental feature changes and multiple items still in preview.
