What started out as a contentious situation between Microsoft and VMware has blossomed into a friendly, formal partnership.
On Monday, Dell CEO Michael Dell, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, and VMware CEO Pat Gelsinger took the stage together at Dell's customer conference in Las Vegas.
Specifically, the partnership will bring VMware's popular virtualization software to Microsoft Azure. That's software that lets devices securely run Windows apps from afar without installing Windows or the apps directly onto the a computer. The two also said they are looking into bringing VMware's computer networking software, NSX — which competes with similar products form Cisco — to Azure, but didn't make any kind of formal commitment on stage.
That's where companies keep some of their own apps, servers and private data centers for some needs, and use public cloud computing, like Microsoft Azure or AWS, for other needs. It's big business, but it requires both parts of the puzzle to be tightly linked to each other.
