Seriously though, how can sovereign cloud even start to work at a reasonable cost?

If only a local provider with local resources and no foreign influence are allowed to even play in this space, it sounds harder to make money and grow this customer base than bidding on nothing but federal contracts.

Hock quote - “ The two platforms taken together will allow workloads, any workloads running on-prem to migrate seamlessly, securely to any public cloud and back again”

I guess he doesn’t have as good a BS detector as people thought. No app is an island. How do you shift to on prem your hyperscaler app that relies on data/messaging services that are only available in the cloud?

I guess more folks than thought at VMware that work in this fantasy land will keep their jobs, and their toxic arrogant tones.

I bet the readme for this tech says, “select your Azure app in the UI and drag it onto your data center icon.”

So easy, an intern can do it. Thanks for making it so easy vmware!

There can be no sovereign clouds in a dictatorship. Ask Chairman Hock!
