Join theCUBE live at tech's top events [VMware’s future: Navigating multicloud complexity and generative AI under Broadcom’s wing]( Ahead of [theCUBE's live coverage at VMware Explore]( our analysts dissect the company's future in the latest [Breaking Analysis]( episode. Let's dig into the complex and contentious approval process of Broadcom's acquisition of VMware, casting a spotlight on the Federal Trade Commission's delays, which could be undermining the very competitive landscape they aim to protect.  TheCUBE analysts Dave Vellante and Rob Strechay are joined by Zeus Kerravala, founder and principal analyst at ZK Research, as they discuss how the approval process for Broadcom's acquisition of VMware is still being prolonged by the Federal Trade Commission and why these delays are counterproductive, as they undermine the competitive landscape that the FTC aims to safeguard. “If preserving competition is truly the agenda of the U.S. government,” Vellante said, “it should recognize that VMware and its enterprise ecosystem and market forces have the potential to neutralize cross-cloud complexity and give customers a viable alternative to increasingly powerful public cloud players.” Broadcom's acquisition of VMware examined With the rapid advancement of the artificial intelligence era, the momentum is building quickly, and the three major hyperscale cloud providers have already established a significant advantage over traditional industry leaders.    “I do think that there is a -- to your point with multicloud -- another wave of growth coming from VMware,” Kerravala said. “Something does have to normalize the complexity, and I think VMware is in the ideal position to do that.”   The analysts also revisit their views on Broadcom’s rationale and likely actions post-acquisition. They share the current Enterprise Technology Research survey data to place VMware’s position in context to the major cloud players, speculate on its AI agenda and give a preview of the upcoming VMware Explore event.   Find more of Vellante’s Breaking Analysis.
