As VMware Tanzu subscription costs continue to rise, many companies are reassessing their cloud strategies. In financial services, staying ahead requires robust technology and an agile, cost-effective approach to application development and management.
Microsoft Azure presents a compelling alternative, delivering significant cost savings, enhanced efficiency and a smoother digital transformation journey.
At Valtech, we specialize in app migration and digital transformation. As a Microsoft Solutions Partner, we’re uniquely positioned to help financial services companies make this critical move with confidence.
The rising costs of VMware Tanzu: A growing concern for financial services
VMware Tanzu has been a trusted platform for modernizing applications, but escalating subscription costs are putting pressure on IT budgets.
Financial services firms already face tight margins, and unnecessary spending on platform management can divert resources from strategic priorities like innovation and customer experience.
Switching to Azure can deliver substantial cost savings by:
-
Consolidating infrastructure. Azure offers a comprehensive suite of tools and services, allowing you to streamline operations and reduce dependencies on multiple platforms.
-
Optimized pricing models. Azure's consumption-based pricing provides flexibility to scale workloads based on your needs, ensuring you only pay for what you use. While this approach requires proactive cost management, it allows companies to optimize resources and adapt to changing demands, making it a strategic choice for long-term efficiency and agility.
-
Integrated support for open-source technologies. Azure supports Kubernetes, containers and other tools without the hefty licensing fees associated with Tanzu.
Why Azure is a strategic alternative for banking and finance
Migrating to Azure is more than a financial decision. It’s a move toward greater efficiency and agility. Azure’s cloud-native capabilities empower financial institutions to:
-
Accelerate time-to-market. Leverage scalable resources and automation to deliver applications faster.
