Broadcom Inc. announced plans to expand its strategic partnership with NEC Corporation to adopt a modern private cloud utilizing VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF). Leveraging the skills and expertise gained from implementing VCF in its own IT systems, NEC will promote the modernization of private clouds, enabling customers to ensure security and accelerate innovation. VCF is the first integrated cloud platform designed to enable a modern private cloud, combining the flexibility and agility of public cloud environments with the security, performance, and low total cost of ownership (TCO) offered by private clouds.
VCF enables consistent operation and management of all applications--traditional, modern, or AI-driven--on a single platform. VCF gives customers a unified private cloud platform that simplifies deployment and operations while strengthening security and lowering risk and cost. Currently, nine of the top 10 Fortune 500 companies deploy VCF.
As a partner, NEC offers VCF-based solutions to customers as part of its value creation model--NEC BluStellar Scenario. NEC also offers VCF as a managed service as of October 2025. NEC Private Cloud Infrastructure powered by VMware is a new service that utilizes VCF to provide customers with flexible resources for building hybrid cloud environments and supporting the development of highly adaptable cloud solutions.
