Big changes are coming to the VMware Cloud Provider Program (VCPP) and smaller service providers! With a new model, which will base licensing on data center cores, and stricter minimum requirements, risk is shifting to smaller providers. This will be compounded further by longer contract/commitment durations, providing end-customer data and being subject to licensing audits from larger service providers. As experts, we're here to offer white-label service and guidance through this transition.
