VMware’s CTO leaving is a concern from a strategic perspective. I liked the push into other areas outside of their bread and butter. I believe it would have ultimately brought innovation to their core x86 products. I’m having a difficult time figuring out how VMware’s infrastructure focus moves to an application centered product model without a platform. They have sold us on Applications as the focus of Cloud. I just don’t know how VMware plans to get us there now without these visionaries.
