VMware has announced it’s acquiring Bitnami, a Y Combinator alum that provides application packaging solutions. Bitnami had raised just $1.1 million from YC and some angel investors. The acquisition price was not disclosed. Based in San Francisco, California, Bitnami’s platform delivers and maintains more than 130 server applications and development environments in partnership with cloud providers like Amazon, Oracle, Microsoft, and Google.

VMware says Bitnami’s application packaging solutions will help its customers simplify the deployment of applications in public or hybrid cloud environments. The startup’s solutions will also complement VMware’s existing efforts to deliver a curated marketplace to its customers that offers applications and development environments in addition to infrastructure software.

Bitnami’s customers include the likes of Disney, Electronic Arts, UPS, eBay, Rakuten, Comcast, Verizon, Gap, Accenture, Walmart, PayPal, Atlassian, Evernote, Splunk, Autodesk, Nvidia, and McAfee.
