Only anecdotally - though the stuff I've seen is more about undoing the mistake of letting anyone at the company run-up massive bills on cloud-only big-data-processing (CosmosDB, Data Lake, etc).
The only other "repatriation" movement I've seen are orgs who got burned by limitations and glitches in things like OneDrive/GoogleDrive - again, this doesn't really come under VMware's remit.
- FireBeyond 3y agoThe other big thing to realize is that for VMware, and Red Hat (I used to work on the OpenShift team) is that cloud might be big, but our last estimates were that 80% of our workloads and capacity were on-prem/hybrid, not cloud.
- redwood 3y agoIf I'm not mistaken, something like 90% of the K8s market is in the public cloud at this point (mostly not using VMware or openshift) so there's a bit of a a biased sample there if you look at the on-prem software orchestration customers as the sample. But maybe I'm exaggerating things
- FireBeyond 3y agoThat's an extremely valid point. I'm no longer there, but I definitely can acknowledge that there is likely some inherent bias in the subset of customers that VMware/Red Hat has versus the entire market.
