It is indeed a rather strange acquisition move. DynamicOps is platform agnostic, ie vmware/xen/kvm, so I wonder if they are going to make it VMware only product? Also, how is this going to co-exist with their vCloud director product?

An increasing amount of VMWare software is hypervisor agnostic (eg CloudFoundry).

I don't fully understand their strategy (maybe - anywhere there is a "cloud" VMWare is there or something?) but they are pretty consistent about it.
