Today we have a small collective article on Broadcom and VMware. Broadcom made a mistake and, as the company had to admit, they sent the e-mails of administrators at customer sites around the world for everyone to see. And at VMware by Broadcom, Amazon Web Services (AWS) has probably left as a major customer. So to round off the week, here's a brief summary of information that I've already had for a few days.
Eased solution for cloud service providers

On May 1, 2024, colleagues from The Register already wrote in the article VMware by Broadcom blinks again – this time easing change for cloud service providers that VMware by Broadcom had this time announced easing or concessions for cloud service providers. After all, Broadcom signaled that they would think about concessions for such cloud service providers.
AWS is out as a VMware customer

Amazon Web Services (AWS) offered customers the opportunity to book VMware virtualization there. Now there has been speculation that Amazon is ending its cooperation with VMware by Broadcom at AWS. The Register wrote about this in the article VMware by Broadcom blinks again – this time easing change for cloud service providers on May 1, 2024.
The Broadcom data leak

At least, a small leak incident happened at Broadcom. On May 1, 2024, they had to inform customers that the email addresses of VMware administrators were openly leaked in a circular email.
