Conclusions from Gelsinger's keynotes at the recent VMworld conference emphasize on the company's newly charted philosophy of enabling businesses having complete freedom, control, and power over their cloud resources through its VMware Cross-Cloud Architecture. VMware is prepped to soar new heights in both private and public cloud domains to define a `better way to manage the collective whole'.
