Tesco is suing Broadcom for over £100 million in the UK High Court, alleging that Broadcom voided perpetual VMware licenses the retailer bought in 2021 and forced it into expensive subscriptions after the $61 billion acquisition. The case is the sharpest legal challenge yet to Broadcom's post-acquisition licensing overhaul, and it's driving one of the largest enterprise infrastructure migrations in UK retail history, with 40,000 server workloads moving off VMware by end of 2027.
