PALO ALTO, Calif., Dec. 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ: AVGO) and ING today announced the extension of the companies’ strategic collaboration to update ING’s private cloud infrastructure. This initiative will see ING adopt VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0 (VCF 9) as part of its private cloud strategy, supporting the company’s objective of digital service excellence across multiple regions.

As a multinational financial institution, ING requires a scalable, highly secure, and compliant cloud-native environment. The implementation of VCF 9 will expand upon ING’s existing VMware virtualized environment, enabling the company to build on a modern private cloud designed for multi-region deployment and global workload mobility.

ING will leverage the full-stack capabilities of VCF 9. Together, the VMware software portfolio will deliver a unified platform to help ING simplify its IT operations, reduce management overhead, and accelerate time-to-market for new digital banking products, with enhanced agility, security, and resilience. Professional services will support private cloud design, implementation, and ongoing optimization efforts alongside ING’s global IT team.

“As we continue to accelerate the pace of digital innovation across our global operations in an uncertain world, maintaining control over data locality and security is paramount,” said Daniele Tonella, Chief Technology Officer, ING. “VMware Cloud Foundation 9 will provide us with the unified, enterprise-grade private cloud platform necessary to achieve multi-region consistency, enhance workload mobility, and confidently meet the complex cloud sovereignty and compliance requirements that underpin our commitment to our customers.”
