Munching up VMware on-prem and AWS/GCP cloud, especially when they support Linux and Windows, it makes it less risky for megacorps to shift traditional non-webops, on-prem operations to them.
What FOSS needs is saner and simpler type-1 hypervisor storage and compute appliances because the existing solutions are too difficult to deploy and maintain.
- lightbritefight 1y agoLook into XCP-NG. Its an excellent implementation of xenserver with a vsphere style single pain of glass called xen-orchestra. Its all FOSS and buildable from source. It comes "batteries included" with backups/vsan/etc for an insanely reasonable "per host" license cost for support.
