Comment In the dog days between Christmas and New Year, VMware and Nutanix renewed hostilities.
It wasn’t hard to see it coming after VMware’s head of cloud Rajiv Ramaswami bailed to become CEO of Nutanix.
VMware sued Ramaswami because he was simultaneously working for VMware while chatting to Nutanix about his new job. “He should have disclosed this conflict of interest to VMware so that the company could have taken steps to protect itself,” VMware said in an announcement that it has sued its former employee “for material and ongoing breaches of his legal and contractual duties and obligations to VMware.”
