Paul Turner: Integration takes precedence over features.
So VCF 9 will be big on "single pane of glass", and very small on actual improvements to the product. Now that they own VMW, I guess no one needs to pretend anymore. It's all about how to get this product to our top 1000 customers so we can be so entangled with them they'll never get free.
Integrating the full stack IS a feature, one way late and has huge up side.
This gives more confidence in direction not less
HT lied about many of his pre-acquisition commitments, so why should R&D be different?
The CA and Symantec profit extractions solidified his proven playbook. No investment.
Hock is riding the legacy. This is the way!
Just shows the sh---y job they were doing at VMware and someone needs to tell them what to do. Just fire them.
"This is the way!"
If this is true, it again lays bare the total incompetence of the BOD, Pat G. and all the people under him in running a business with competing BUs that were not required to cooperate.
This is a direction that is at least a decade late.
Omg
I didn't interpret what Paul said that way
Yea bïtch, get with the fücking program, the one that fûcks customers and employees alike. Profit over people FTW!
And BTW, bring your own TP to the office, we don’t want to waste shareholder money so you can clean you àss.
