The Case for Open Source Hypervisors with Special Guest Tom Lawrence
In the post-vmware world we live in today, many people are evaluating where to turn next for their virtualization needs. In this video, I sat down with Tom Lawrence to discuss the viability of open-source hypervisors as an alternative to #vmware and other closed-source hypervisors available today. We touch on #XCP-ng and #Proxmox, their viability in business, the #homelab, whether a Broadcom-style takeover could happen to them, and much more!
A very special thank you to Tom Lawrence for taking the time to talk with me about these topics! Find Tom's work here:

Life After VMware
Welcome to our first podcast of 2024! (yes, it's a little late...that's my fault.) Anyway, we're changing up the podcast a bit in terms of format. That's right! We're trying something a little different! We've added a short news section to the beginning of the pods, followed by our deep-dive topic. This month's podcast is all about 'Life after VMware', where we talk about options and discuss the realities of moving to a different hypervisor for your #homelab and/or business!
