Broadcom’s VMware Private AI Cloud spans infrastructure, agents, data and security
Broadcom Inc. today introduced VMware Private AI Cloud, an integrated software stack designed to enable enterprises to build and run artificial intelligence applications alongside conventional workloads while keeping their data, models and infrastructure under their control.
Announced at the VMware Explore 2026 conference this week in Las Vegas, the offering combines VMware Cloud Foundation infrastructure with a new VMware AI Factory, validated AI models, VMware Tanzu agent-development and data services, AgentMinder governance software and expanded security protections. Broadcom also unveiled TrueSource, a portfolio of commercially supported and verifiably built open-source software.
“It brings the private cloud infrastructure with the private AI services into one, enabling production inference and agentic AI with the data sovereignty, the compliance, and the cost predictability required for our customers,” said Prashanth Shenoy, chief marketing officer and vice president of marketing for VMware’s cloud platform, infrastructure and solutions organization.
The foundation is VCF 9, which supports virtual machines, containers, inference workloads and agentic applications on one platform. Broadcom said VCF 9 has more than 3,000 customer deployments representing over 19 million allocated processor cores. Its nonvolatile memory express memory-tiering technology can replace lower-cost flash storage for some dynamic random-access memory and has reduced per-host costs by up to 42% in customer deployments while maintaining performance, Shenoy said.
