Broadcom's acquisition of VMware set off a chain reaction that is now reshaping enterprise infrastructure at scale. With 57% of IT decision-makers planning to reduce VMware usage in the next 12 months — and 92% acting within their current renewal cycle — the question is no longer if migrate, but how you'll do it without putting your data at risk.
In this executive webinar, CIO moderates a data-driven conversation with Dave Russell, SVP and Head of Strategy at Veeam, drawing on exclusive findings from Foundry's March 2026 global research study.
What they did cover:
- Challenges organizations are facing mid-migration
- Why only 33% of IT leaders feel highly confident in their data resilience during the transition
- What a hypervisor-independent data protection strategy looks like in practice.
