Last month, one of the new guys stood up his first #proxmox sandbox. This month, so did my PM. Today, I handed a preconfig to my boss. Next month, I’m putting it in my colo.
VMware is dead. nostr:note19595lm4geh8lf7rjc2vv65hw8s88kglqhenuvy57l27pwyqg4s7swnfmmg
I’ve been using it on the new server. Proxmox basically makes VMWare feel like wasted money tbh.
Broadcom is making a lot of orgs reconsider their on-prem footprint altogether.
RIP 🥹
I do feel awful for their employees. The company stood by that free evaluation & executed well. They literally built the virtualization industry into what it is & where it got today.
Amen. Back in the day VMware Workstation Pro was the absolute best, and absolutely worth the money. A lot has changed. I’d rather use Hyper-V than pay for that crap now.
Jfc hell no lmao. I can’t go that far, fuck hyperv
We use VirtualBox 🤣
It was for shock value. Hyperbole intended. 😛
I use virtual box for all personal and low key testing still, but all of my enterprise stuff runs on VMware.
Yes, similar here but proxmox for the servers. They do offer support subs for big businesses with pretty nice response promises.
I have a friend that worked for VMware. I've heard about the rollercoaster firsthand. She now works for Broadcom, though she seems very happy.
KVM > VM
