Broadcom quoted AT&T a 1,050 percent price hike for VMware offerings, AT&T has claimed in legal documents.

Broadcom, which has stopped selling VMware perpetual licenses, has said that AT&T missed its opportunity to renew support and that the contract between VMware and AT&T has an "End of Availability" provision allowing VMware to retire products and services.
