VMware vSphere with Tanzu: vSphere 7 Update 1 – 4sysops

To get started with Kubernetes on VMware vSphere, admins had to use VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF), which has vSphere, NSX, vRealize Suite, etc. VMware has now announced vSphere with Tanzu. It is the latest release of VMware vSphere 7 U1, which will be capable of running Tanzu without being part of VCF.
