VMware vSphere 8 Enterprise Plus with Tanzu (per Core)

VMware vSphere 8 Enterprise Plus with Tanzu is a per-core subscription offering that combines vSphere 8's hypervisor capabilities with integrated Kubernetes through Tanzu. This unified platform enables organizations to run both traditional virtual machines and containerized workloads on the same infrastructure, reducing operational complexity and eliminating the need for separate container orchestration platforms.

The Enterprise Plus tier unlocks advanced features including vSAN Enterprise, NSX Enterprise, vRealize Suite licensing, and Tanzu Kubernetes Grid components. Organizations gain access to sophisticated storage virtualization, microsegmentation networking, and multi-cluster application management within a single per-core licensing model that applies across the entire vSphere cluster infrastructure.

Designed for data centers requiring enterprise-grade availability, security, and workload flexibility, this offering supports mixed workload deployments from mission-critical databases to cloud-native applications. The per-core measurement model simplifies capacity planning and licensing administration across heterogeneous server hardware within licensed clusters.
