Description

IHAC who is interested in considering PhotonOS for embedded use cases. When we pulled up the Intro page, it still referred to vCloud Air and made no mention of PhotonOS being used in Tanzu Kubernetes Grid solutions.

Perhaps as part of the Photon 4.0 work, the gitbook docs could be updated to remove stale references and incorporate the current state of the market.

Example of page referencing vCloud Air: https://vmware.github.io/photon/assets/files/html/3.0/Introduction.html

I know that newer docs exist here, but they are not the ones that customers find first with a Google search.

Thanks!

Research direction

Start with the Intro page at https://vmware.github.io/photon/assets/files/html/3.0/Introduction.html and compare it with the newer documentation at https://vmware.github.io/photon/docs/. Update stale vCloud Air references and add the PhotonOS use of Tanzu Kubernetes Grid solutions; the page should reflect the current market information customers find first.
