Introduction

What is VMware Tanzu?

VMware Tanzu is the Kubernetes and application platform within VMware Cloud Foundation. It enables organizations to build and manage modern cloud-native applications on enterprise Kubernetes — fully integrated with your existing vSphere infrastructure.

Kubernetes

Tanzu Kubernetes Grid

TKG is VMware’s enterprise Kubernetes distribution. Kubernetes clusters run natively on vSphere as first-class citizens, managed via vCenter. This means your operations team can manage Kubernetes with the same tools they already know.

Kubernetes clusters as vSphere workloads
Lifecycle management: deploy, upgrade, and scale clusters via vCenter
Consistent Kubernetes on-premises, in AWS, Azure, and GCP
Integrated with NSX for container networking and security

Development

Developer Platform & CI/CD

Tanzu Application Platform offers developers a self-service portal for deploying applications. The built-in supply chain choreographer automates the path from source code to production — including building, testing, scanning, and deployment.

Self-service deployment: developers push code, platform does the rest
Supply chain automation: build, test, scan, and deploy automated
Application Accelerators: templates for fast project starts
IDE integration with VS Code and IntelliJ for live debugging
