In this episode of the Virtually Speaking Podcast from VMware Explore 2025, hosts Pete Flecha and John Nicholson sit down with Dilpreet Bindra, Sr. Director of Engineering at VMware by Broadcom, to talk about the evolution of Kubernetes and VMware’s latest innovations.
Dilpreet explains how Kubernetes has moved from niche adoption to the mainstream, with 80–90% of new applications now being built on Kubernetes. He highlights how VMware Kubernetes Service (VKS) stands out by empowering application teams to own and manage their own clusters—avoiding the bottlenecks of centralized “pet” clusters.
The conversation also explores:
⚡ VMware’s commitment to delivering new Kubernetes versions within eight weeks of upstream releases
🤝 VMware’s ongoing contributions to the Kubernetes ecosystem
📦 Argo CD support for Git-based deployments across both Kubernetes and VMs
📊 New monitoring capabilities in VCF 9 for tenant-specific and admin-level visibility
💬 Customer feedback, with many praising VMware for “delivering the cloud on premise” and enabling them to rethink infrastructure strategies
If you’re building modern applications or driving cloud-native transformation, this episode shows how VMware is helping organizations deliver Kubernetes with the agility of public cloud—on-premises.
