I just left one of the UK's largest VMWare customers, in a team working directly on VSphere and ESXI products. The team was just starting to tool up for a new internal project to manage VMs within the company using some of the newer features in these tools. We had well over 1 million VMs across more than a dozen datacenters. The cost of running this is expected to go up by 30 times or more.

While it's going to take some time, they're now looking at migrating to a different solution. So Broadcom are going to get their extra pay for a while, but not forever.
