Virtualization migration

End the proprietary virtualisation lock-in

Replace vendor-controlled infrastructure with an open, cloud-native stack built on OpenStack and Kubernetes.

Challenge

Virtualization economics shifted - the dependency did not.

Recent changes in virtualisation economics have exposed a structural problem that commercial negotiations alone cannot resolve.

Unpredictable cost model

Licensing changes, bundled subscriptions, and pricing shifts introduced over the past two years make long-term infrastructure cost planning significantly more difficult for enterprise IT and finance teams.

Deep platform coupling

Infrastructure, management tooling, and operational processes are tightly integrated into the proprietary platform - making migration appear more complex and risky than it is in practice.

No control over the roadmap

The vendor's commercial priorities determine what gets built,when, and at what cost. Your operational requirements are secondary to that decision-making process.

Cloudboostr -  Open Cloud Foundation

Replace the control plane, not just the hypervisor

OpenStack and Kubernetes replace the proprietary control planeentirely - provisioning, scaling, and lifecycle management - on infrastructure your organization owns outright. Your existing containerized workloads and automation tooling continue to run as designed.

OpenStack-based infrastructure

Enterprise-grade private cloud built on open, API-driven infrastructure. Compute, storage, and networking under full operational ownership.

Kubernetes-native runtime

VM and container workloads aligned with modern orchestration and automation - consistent with the tooling your teams already use.

No licensing model

Per-CPU licensing and vendor-controlled pricing structures are eliminated. Infrastructure costs are determined by your hardware and operational choices, not a vendor's commercial decisions.

API-driven operations

Manage the full infrastructure lifecycle through open APIs and automation - with no dependency on proprietary management tooling.

Advantage

Operate your infrastructure without cost volatility

Predictable infrastructure economics

Remove exposure to vendor pricing decisions. Infrastructure costs are transparent and stable.

Operational continuity

Existing tooling, processes, and workload models are preserved through the migration. Teams continue to work with familiar patterns.

Cloud-native alignment

Infrastructure aligned with AI, data, and modern application workloads — designed for your operational requirements.

Long-term independence

No single vendor can redefine your infrastructure strategy.

Migration approach

A structured path to open, cloud-native infrastructure

Cloudboostr provides a phased approach to replacing legacy virtualization platforms with an open cloud foundation.

Phase 1

Architecture & Design

Infrastructure review, workload classification, and migration path definition.

Phase 2

Platform Deployment

OpenStack and Kubernetes deployment, validation, security configuration, and observability setup.

Phase 3

Workload Migration

Prioritized workload migration, performance and resilience validation, and operational handover with knowledge transfer for your teams.
