Prior to this year VMware has consistently included new features of the product at vary levels of vSphere licensing. Last year for example they added Storage DRS, which was a great new feature.

Microsoft, Citrix and open source hypervisors have quickly become good enough for basic virtualization use cases. There is still a ton to be done in virtualizing networks and storage. There’s no question that both storage virtualization and network virtualization are cool technologies. It was a great Trojan Horse.

One of the key components of 5G technology is compute and storage at the edge —on the cell towers themselves— that distributes computing and reduces latency. IPFS does this for storage, decentralizing file storage by putting files in shared spaces at the edge. 5G moves it right to the pole in your backyard.
