Could Buying VMware Bring Broadcom Hybrid Cloud Bona Fides?

The Path Won’t be Easy: Three Strategies for Success The market is full of cautionary tales of software vendors that were acquired only to be slowly destroyed. A successful acquisition would require Broadcom to tread lightly and maintain the elements that have made VMware the company that it is today. Although I expect VMware to remain a standalone business unit (similar to CA’s current position within Broadcom’s ecosystem), it will be important to foster innovation.
