Virt-v2v - take out your VMware VMs to Linux
2024-06-13 , A113 | Lightning Talks (capacity 64)

VMware was recently acquired by Broadcom and as was widely predicted the new owners have put up VMware's prices. In some cases massively, with 10x price increases being reported.

There is a way out. You can say goodbye to VMware and take your virtual machines with you to Linux using the virt-v2v tool. Virt-v2v has been in development since 2008 and has liberated millions of virtual machines from proprietary software.

In this lightning talk, Richard Jones, one of the original developers of virt-v2v will show how it works and what it does.
