VMware-class capabilities on infrastructure you already own.
Private Cloud Director combines KVM virtualisation, Kubernetes, and cloud-style self-service in one platform — deployable SaaS-managed, self-hosted, or fully air-gapped, on your existing servers, storage, and networks.
Private Cloud Director
Enterprise VM management with the features VMware admins expect — VM high availability, live migration (vMotion-equivalent), Dynamic Resource Rebalancing (DRS-like), snapshots, and software-defined networking — on your existing hardware and third-party storage.
Automated Migration with vJailbreak
Platform9's vJailbreak migration engine makes large-scale VMware displacement repeatable and predictable — customers have migrated tens of thousands of VMs — with no forced re-platforming and no disruption to day-to-day operations.
VMs and Kubernetes, Unified
Run traditional VM workloads and cloud-native containers side by side in one platform, with self-service provisioning, multi-tenancy, and policy-driven access controls — a public-cloud experience inside your own datacenter.
Deploy on Your Terms
Choose a SaaS-managed control plane for operational simplicity, or self-host — including fully air-gapped deployments for data-sovereign and regulated environments. With Platform9 OS, teams operate an enterprise KVM cloud without deep Linux administration.
Who we deploy Platform9 for.
Escape renewal shock without breaking production
For enterprises facing steep VMware renewal increases, Platform9 offers a like-for-like operational experience — HA, live migration, resource rebalancing — with per-core pricing that fundamentally changes the TCO conversation.
Private cloud that satisfies India's compliance mandates
For banks, insurers, and public sector organisations with RBI, SEBI, or MeitY data-residency obligations, Platform9's self-hosted and air-gapped deployment models keep workloads — and the control plane — inside your boundary.
Kubernetes and GPU infrastructure, on-premises
For organisations scaling containerised and AI/ML workloads, Platform9 delivers managed Kubernetes alongside VMs on the same private cloud — without shipping sensitive data or GPU spend to a hyperscaler.
Virtualisation migration expertise, end to end.
We have designed, migrated, and operated virtualisation estates across Citrix, Nutanix, XenServer, and public cloud for two decades. That heritage makes us the right partner to plan a VMware exit that protects production — and to run what comes next.
- Strategy & Advisory — define whether and when a VMware exit makes sense
- Assessment — inventory workloads, dependencies, and licensing exposure
- Design — architect Private Cloud Director for your hardware and storage
- Migration — vJailbreak-driven migration waves executed by our CoE
- Kubernetes enablement — containers and AI workloads on the same platform
- Validation — performance baselining and day-2 operational readiness
- Managed Services — ITIL-aligned monitoring, patching, and 24/7 support
- Quick Start — fixed-outcome POC and Community Edition pilots
Deep Virtualisation Heritage
Our engineers have run enterprise virtualisation across Citrix, XenServer, Nutanix, and the hyperscalers for 20+ years. We know what VMware admins depend on — and how to preserve it through a platform change.
Vendor-Agnostic Advisory
We help you weigh Platform9 against Nutanix AHV, XenServer, and public cloud honestly — based on your workloads, compliance posture, and budget, not vendor preference.
Migration Factory from Our CoE
Our India Centre of Excellence plans and executes migration waves at scale — discovery, dependency mapping, cutover, and rollback planning — so your team keeps running the business while we move it.
24/7 Managed Services from India
Our Thane-based NOC operates your private cloud after go-live — proactive monitoring, capacity management, upgrades, and ITIL-aligned support around the clock.
Plan your VMware exit with confidence.
Whether you're at renewal pressure or just exploring alternatives, start with a no-obligation assessment of your estate — workloads, dependencies, and a realistic migration timeline with TCO comparison.
