Two of my family members built a good hunk of their careers on VMware products. This is the poster child story for why to not put all of your eggs in a single closed source basket.

Yep. One of my colleagues went all in on Crowdstrike a couple of years back. That went hilariously badly for him due to obvious reasons.

    Well we warned him. He got paid to set it up and then paid to get rid of it so it went rather well for him but not in the way he though it was going to. Plenty of time to roll out a plan B which worked out better for him anyway.

Same here, but I jumped ship to cloud, Kubernetes & Co. some years ago. I know many who still live well on VMware products, even if they are just busy migrating workloads to other platforms.
