## Brian Reeves
VMware speaker at Cloud Transformation Programme (CTP) learning sessions. Specializes in cloud economics and the business case for cloud migration.
## Role
Speaker at CTP Topic 43 — VMware Cloud on AWS. Presented the economics perspective, highlighting that VMC on AWS offers 27% cost savings compared to regular cloud deployment.
## Key Points Covered
- VMC on AWS cost model: VMware sells an entire host, enabling over-provisioning and cost reduction
- TCO comparison: Cloud economics team can perform total cost of ownership calculations to compare VMC on AWS against on-premises or other hyperscalers
- Business value: Positioned VMC on AWS as a middle ground for organizations not ready for full native cloud migration
