VMware, Inc. é uma empresa de software listada na Bolsa de Nova York (NYSE) sob o stock ticker VMW. Dell Technologies é uma acionista majoritária. A VMware produz software e serviços para computação em nuvem e virtualização, o que permite criar máquinas virtuais (hipervisor). Isto permite a instalação e utilização de um sistema operacional dentro de outro, dando suporte real a software de outros sistemas operativos. Usando um software de virtualização como os providos pela VMware é possível executar um ou mais sistemas operacionais simultaneamente num ambiente isolado, criando computadores completos (virtuais) a executar dentro de um computador físico que pode rodar um sistema operacional totalmente distinto. Do ponto de vista do utilizador e do software nem sequer se nota a diferença entre a máquina real e a virtual. É muito usado em centros de dados, pois permite criar redundância e segurança adicional sem recorrer a tantas máquinas físicas e distribuindo e aproveitando melhor os recursos das máquinas hospedeiras.
