VMware has created a subscription service based on vSphere Standard, an edition of its flagship that’s mostly aimed at server consolidation.<\/p>\n

Sold for just $1,349 per year, vSphere Standard includes the virtualization, storage, networking and DR tools needed to run a small fleet of hosts and virtual machines. But it omits features and tools that drive hybrid clouds and their more complex networking and security requirements.<\/p>\n

Like every other software vendor, VMware is under pressure to move to subscriptions so it can predict revenue more easily and doesn’t have to upsell customers quite so often. vSphere users have also increasingly adopted \u2013 or found themselves managing \u2013 hybrid multi-clouds.<\/p>\n
