Abstract: This study examines VMware cloud-native platforms, emphasizing their orchestration and automated management functionalities for container technologies, which are essential in modern IT infrastructure. The study seeks to comprehensively examine VMware Tanzu's architecture, technical elements, and efficacy in facilitating containerized applications. Case studies were used to gain comprehensive insights into brownfield and greenfield deployment strategies, illustrating practical implementation challenges and advantages for vSphere with Tanzu and Tanzu Kubernetes Grid. These studies emphasize scenarios from gradually incorporating Kubernetes into current VMware environments to developing optimized infrastructures from the ground up. Significant findings encompass strategies for scalable IT infrastructure, innovative applications of persistent storage via VMware Cloud Native Storage, and the function of Tanzu Kubernetes Grid in multi-cloud deployment contexts. The study concludes that Tanzu platforms successfully integrate traditional virtualization with contemporary containerization, providing robust scalability, flexibility, and efficient resource-use solutions. The practical implications emphasize how organizations can utilize these insights to seamlessly integrate Kubernetes workloads, optimize investments in VMware ecosystems, and respond to evolving IT requirements.
