Architect builds open source replacement for VMware migration tool

Original: Architect creates open source replacement for VM migration tool

A software architect has released an open source replacement for a virtual machine migration tool, filling a gap left after VMware restricted access to its own migration utilities. The move follows Broadcom's acquisition of VMware and subsequent licensing changes that pushed many customers to consider leaving the platform. Commenters are welcoming the free alternative, noting it could lower the cost and friction of moving workloads to other hypervisors.

Why now: Ongoing frustration with VMware's licensing changes under Broadcom is driving interest in tools that help customers migrate away
