Chris Wolf on Private AI, GPU Partnerships, and the Future of VCF 9
At VMware Explore 2025, the Virtually Speaking Podcast sat down with Chris Wolf, Global Head of AI and Advanced Services at Broadcom, alongside hosts Pete Flecha and guest co-host David Linthicum, to unpack VMware’s latest Private AI announcements.
Chris details the expanded partnership with NVIDIA, including support for B200s, RTX Pro 6000s, DirectPath I/O, and pass-through capabilities, plus a new partnership with AMD to virtualize MI350 GPUs. He also breaks down how Private AI Services are now included as part of VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF), delivering:
- A model runtime supporting GPUs and CPUs
- A secure model store for governance
- Data indexing and retrieval services
- An agent builder service
The discussion explores why enterprises are leaning into private AI—from data privacy to economic advantages (up to 3x cost benefits) to sovereign AI requirements. Chris also introduces secure model sharing, allowing multiple tenants to use one model while keeping datasets protected.
The episode wraps with real-world customer use cases across industries, with a spotlight on strong adoption in the public sector.
Tune in for insights on how VMware is shaping the next chapter of Private AI in the cloud with VCF 9.
