General Availability of VMware Cloud Foundation 4.3

Some good news today as VMware has released VMware Cloud Foundation 4.3. I know many folks who are running 4x and are keen on some updates in this release. Let’s see what's new.

According to Rick Walsworth on the VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Blog

The VMware Cloud Foundation team is proud to announce general availability of VMware Cloud Foundation 4.3, bringing forward the latest innovations in full stack Hyperconverged Infrastructure as a Hybrid Cloud Platform.

Some of the new features that are delivered with this release include vSphere 7.0 Update 2a with Tanzu. This is pretty exciting for those that want to get started with Kubernetes on their vSphere environment.

One thing to keep in mind if you are running VMware Cloud Foundation 3x, that in-place upgrades are not supported. But you can leverage VMware professional services to perform adjacent workload migrations, in which your workload is moved between a 3x and 4x environment in a side-by-side fashion.

What version of VMware Cloud Foundation are you running? Do you intend to upgrade to version 4.3? Are there any features that have you excited? Please let me know on Twitter, and thanks for reading.
