Has your organization been reconsidering VMware? If so, you're far from the only one. We've noticed a push towards VMware alternatives on bare metal, and wanted to highlight one in particular: OpenShift Virtualization.
In this video, Rob Hirschfeld, CEO and co-founder of RackN, explains how this change is driven by the need for greater flexibility and cost savings, as well as innovation in infrastructure design.
We recently published a blog post on the importance decoupling OpenShift Virtualization from OpenShift Container Platform, so check that out if you want more information on OpenShift. Read that here: rackn.com/2025/02/20/quit-combining-your-openshift-processes
