In the IT world, Broadcom’s takeover of VMware is causing uncertainty among VMware partners and users. At this point, it must be noted that, above all, communication about new license and pricing models needs to be more transparent, which is causing many users to think about alternative cloud platforms. With Proxmox and OpenStack, we at kyberio offer solid and proven alternatives for many applications, especially in comparison to VMware.
Proxmox is the preferred open-source solution for server virtualization and management. It combines KVM virtualization and container technology in a single platform, enabling flexible and efficient management of IT infrastructures. The Proxmox user interface is web-based, which simplifies administration. Another advantage is that Proxmox does not require licensing fees, making it particularly attractive for budget-conscious organizations.
OpenStack, another open-source platform, offers extensive options for provisioning and managing cloud infrastructures. It is known for its scalability and flexibility, allowing companies to configure and operate private and public clouds according to their specific requirements.
However, the complexity of OpenStack can be a challenge, especially for companies without extensive technical expertise. Of course, we offer comprehensive managed services and consulting as support.
Compared to VMware, which is considered an established but cost-intensive solution, Proxmox, and OpenStack offer cost-effective alternatives with open-source advantages such as flexibility, customizability, and vibrant, active community support. While VMware offers a wide range of features and a strong market position, many users prefer Proxmox and OpenStack due to their cost savings and open nature.
In summary, Proxmox and OpenStack both offer strong alternatives to VMware, especially for organizations that value open-source principles, cost efficiency, and flexibility. The choice between these platforms depends on each organization’s specific requirements, existing technical expertise, and financial considerations.
