We are excited about the VMware Tanzu portfolio, and we want to be very clear about our intent to lead our customers forward as their strategic partner in application modernization.

VMware Tanzu is our portfolio of products and services to transform the way the world builds software on Kubernetes.

Pivotal and VMware have collaborated heavily in the last few years—co-developing software, taking products and services to market and contributing to the open source community.

VMware Essential PKS captures the highly open approach that Heptio exemplified and it rounds out our portfolio so we can best address different customer approaches to running Kubernetes in production.

Today, I am pleased to announce that VMware has closed the acquisition of Heptio. I want to officially welcome the entire Heptio team led by Joe Beda and Craig McLuckie to the Cloud Native Apps team.
