VMware Migration

VMware Migration

Escape VMware licensing costs and vendor lock-in with a planned, low-risk migration to open-source alternatives, bare metal, or cloud platforms. We assess your current environment, design the right target architecture, and execute a smooth transition with minimal downtime.

Move Beyond VMware Without the Risk

Since Broadcom's acquisition of VMware, many organisations face dramatically increased licensing costs and reduced support options. We help you evaluate your options and execute a migration that fits your workloads, budget, and operational requirements - whether that's Proxmox, KVM, Kubernetes, or AWS.

If you want to go further than simply replacing VMware, we can help bring your workloads up to cloud-native standards. We don't just do lift-and-shift - where it makes sense, we modernise your applications along the way, containerising workloads, breaking up monoliths, and putting CI/CD pipelines in place so your team ships faster and with more confidence from day one on the new platform.

Our VMware Migration Services Include:

  • VMware Environment Assessment & Migration Planning
  • Migration to Proxmox VE
  • Migration to KVM / libvirt
  • Workload Migration to Kubernetes & Containers
  • Bare Metal Provisioning & Optimisation
  • Cloud Migration to AWS
  • Storage Migration (vSAN to Ceph, NFS, or cloud storage)
  • Network Reconfiguration & NSX Replacement
  • Post-Migration Monitoring & Ongoing Support
  • Application Containerisation & Modernisation
  • CI/CD Pipeline Implementation

Benefits of Migrating Away from VMware

Reduced Costs

Eliminate VMware licensing fees and reduce your infrastructure spend significantly by moving to open-source or cloud-native platforms.

No Vendor Lock-In

Regain control of your infrastructure with open standards and open-source tooling that isn't subject to acquisition-driven pricing changes.

Modern Architecture

Use the migration as an opportunity to modernise workloads - containerising applications and adopting cloud-native practices.

Minimal Downtime

Our phased migration approach keeps your services running throughout the transition, with thorough testing before each cutover.

Improved Performance

Right-size your infrastructure for your actual workloads and eliminate the overhead that comes with legacy hypervisor stacks.

Long-Term Stability

Build on platforms with active open-source communities and clear roadmaps, free from the uncertainty of corporate acquisitions.
