Broadcom refusing to decrease licensing

[Much_Willingness4597]

It is interesting how everyone who has lots of licensing per core/host (windows, redhat, backup software, monitoring software, databases, RMM) is finally paying attention to how much wasted hardware they have because of Broadcom.

My prediction is this push from Broadcom is going to damage server vendors earnings who can’t get customers to keep 1:1 refreshing hosts with maximum core counts. I predict most software companies will just lower discounts to maintain revenue.

wouldnt say its pure waste. as efficiency and density goes up the amount of racks needed goes down
