Washington, D.C. | May 7-9, 2025

“By 2028, approximately 30% of the 2024 VMware customers will transition from the vSphere hypervisor to alternative hypervisors or adopt container platforms, either on-premises or in the cloud.”

“A large-scale migration from VMware’s server virtualization platform will require specialized skills, multiple person-years of effort, considerable one-time project costs, business risk, and have an elapsed duration of 18 – 48 months.

VMware is designed to be intentionally difficult to leave

In the wake of Broadcom’s acquisition, many organizations are encountering new complexities that make it increasingly difficult to move away from the VMware ecosystem. From technical dependencies to contractual constraints, these barriers can stall progress and increase long-term costs.

ASCEND was developed specifically to address these challenges

It provides a clear, structured path for organizations seeking to be flexible, minimize risk, accelerate timelines, and enable a confident transition from VMware on their own terms.
