IBM Transforms VMware Cloud Experience Through Design-Led Innovation
The VMware Cloud Experience is getting an overhaul thanks to IBM's design-led transformation efforts. With over 20 million virtual machines migrating to the cloud in the next few years, companies like banks and airlines are under pressure to modernize without disrupting their mission-critical systems.
IBM's partnership with VMware offers a unique opportunity to redefine interactions in B2B cloud infrastructure. The IBM Cloud for VMware by IBM platform has already won a 2025 Good Design Award from The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and European Centre for Architecture, Art, Design, and Urban Studies.
The platform combines self-managed and IBM-managed options with full on-premises compatibility, providing flexibility for clients to make a seamless transition to the cloud. This hybrid cloud solution has been streamlined since Broadcom acquired VMware in 2024, consolidating its portfolio around VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF).
