Broadcom is acquiring VMware. Now what? If your infrastructure runs on VMware, you need to answer that question. And for many, or even most companies, the answer is to find a “Plan B” for their virtualized workloads and private-cloud infrastructure. So what can you do?

Fortunately, OpenStack is a proven alternative to proprietary virtualization solutions such as VMware, but what is involved in migrating your existing workloads to an OpenStack environment?

In this webinar you’ll learn:
– Key factors to consider when planning a migration of a virtualized infrastructure
– The phases of a workload migration from end to end
– Challenges and limitations of this process and how to mitigate them
