Platform9 in Spain

Azuba is a partner of Platform9 in Spain. Platform9 Private Cloud Director lets you build and manage an enterprise private cloud on KVM, keeping a familiar experience for VMware administrators and using existing server, storage and network infrastructure. The platform runs and manages virtual machines and Kubernetes from one environment, supporting a gradual move toward cloud-native architectures without forcing every application to transform on day one.

A VMware alternative without starting from scratch

Keep your VMs and evolve at your pace

Platform9 provides enterprise capabilities equivalent to those commonly used in VMware. All on KVM, avoiding dependence on a proprietary hypervisor.

VM high availability

Operational continuity for critical virtualized workloads.

Live migration

Live migration between hosts without service interruption.

Dynamic resource balancing

Automatic workload rebalancing across cluster nodes.

Software-defined networking

Software-defined networks in the virtualization plane.

Snapshots

Recovery points per virtual machine.

Multi-tenancy and self-service

Tenant isolation and on-demand consumption.

APIs and automation

Integration with pipelines and programmatic operations.

Migrate from VMware with vJailbreak

Automate the transition of your virtual machines

vJailbreak automates migration from VMware to Platform9, including conversion of virtual machines to the new KVM environment. The goal is to reduce the time, cost and risk of migration projects and let applications keep running as VMs without forcing an immediate refactor into containers.

VMs and Kubernetes on one platform

Modernize when it makes sense

Private Cloud Director manages traditional virtualized workloads and Kubernetes applications from a common platform. Existing applications can keep running as VMs while new applications deploy on Kubernetes, providing a gradual path toward cloud-native architectures.

Use your existing infrastructure

Change the platform, not necessarily the hardware

Platform9 is designed to work with existing enterprise infrastructure. It can integrate with storage from vendors such as Dell, HPE, NetApp, IBM and Everpure, as well as different server platforms and enterprise backup and recovery solutions. That reduces the need to replace existing investments as part of migration from VMware.

Platform9 and Azuba

Azuba brings Platform9 to large organizations looking to reduce VMware dependence, control virtualization costs and build a more open private cloud strategy. We work with Platform9 specialists to analyse the existing VMware environment, assess workloads suitable for migration and plan a gradual transition toward KVM, private cloud and Kubernetes.

Common questions

What is vJailbreak and what is Private Cloud Director?

Private Cloud Director is the private cloud platform on KVM. vJailbreak automates migration from VMware, including VM conversion to the KVM environment.

Does Platform9 replace Everpure, Tintri or WEKA?

No. Those vendors cover storage. Platform9 integrates existing arrays (Dell, HPE, NetApp, IBM, Everpure among others) to run VMs on infrastructure you already have.
