What is modern virtualization?

Modern virtualization runs virtual machines (VMs) on Kubernetes using platforms like Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization. This approach allows organizations to run both VMs and containers on the same platform while adopting cloud-native technologies and modern operational practices.

What is Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization?

Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization is a capability within Red Hat OpenShift that enables organizations to run and manage virtual machines alongside containerized applications on Kubernetes. It provides a unified platform for modernizing existing VM workloads while supporting cloud-native development.

How does Portworx enhance OpenShift Virtualization?

Portworx adds enterprise data management capabilities required to run VMs and containers in production. These include high availability, backup and recovery, disaster recovery, encryption, and automated storage management for both virtual machine and container workloads.

How can organizations migrate from VMware to OpenShift Virtualization?

Red Hat provides a Migration Toolkit for Virtualization that helps organizations discover, plan, and migrate virtual machines from VMware environments into OpenShift Virtualization. Portworx and Everpure enhance this migration with Rapid FlashArray Migration to accelerate migration times for existing FlashArray customers.
