The Bare Metal Dilemma
Discover how bare metal service providers are replacing VMware with VergeOS to reduce costs, simplify operations, enhance security, and deliver scalable, automated infrastructure with modern observability and fast migration tools.
Ensuring VDI Resilience
Why Your Infrastructure Must Be More Reliable Than a Laptop Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) promises centralized management, enhanced security, and simplified desktop provisioning, but ensuring VDI resilience ultimately determines its success. Users expect their virtual desktops to be available whenever needed, and IT administrators can’t…
This World Backup Day, Don’t Back Up. Build Differently.
World Backup Day is a timely reminder that data loss is still a threat—and that most IT environments still rely on traditional backup software to stay safe. But what if your IT infrastructure didn’t need conventional backup strategies? What if your virtual infrastructure could natively…
Solving VDI Boot Storms
Solving VDI Boot Storms: Boot storms cripple VDI performance, causing long login times and storage bottlenecks, which lower VDI adoption and user acceptance. Traditional vSAN solutions struggle under load, but VergeFS, integrated into VergeOS, eliminates inefficiencies with distributed mirroring and optimized deduplication. See how real-world testing proves VergeFS delivers faster, more reliable virtual desktop performance at lower costs.
SDN at the Edge
SDN at the Edge should be part of evaluating a VMware alternative. While organizations often focus on reducing licensing costs and simplifying data center management, they should also consider using software-defined networking at the edge. Extending SDN beyond the core to edge locations, remote offices,…
Alternatives to Proprietary Networking
Organizations considering a VMware exit should also consider alternatives to proprietary networking. Extending infrastructure modernization to networking has the potential to further lower costs and improve flexibility. Why continue paying for expensive, proprietary networking hardware when an integrated, software-defined alternative is available at no extra…
Maximizing Storage Refresh ROI
A traditional SAN refresh is costly, complex, and locks IT teams into another cycle of expensive upgrades. VergeOS with VergeFS eliminates the need for dedicated storage arrays by integrating storage into the hypervisor. Reduce costs, improve performance, and future-proof your infrastructure while simultaneously transitioning away from VMware.
VMware Servers for Your Storage Refresh
What if you could use your existing VMware servers for your storage refresh? Many IT professionals are facing two big projects in 2025: a SAN refresh and the replacement of VMware. The problem is that most vendors will want you to replace all that hardware,…
Using Backups for Storage Failure
All vSANs and Dedicated storage arrays are vulnerable to failure. Backups won’t save you from a multi-drive RAID or full storage system failure. Rebuilds take hours, backup recovery is outdated. VergeOS with ioGuardian ensures instant recovery, keeping workloads online even during catastrophic failures.
Understanding vSAN Snapshots
Understanding vSAN Snapshots is more than just managing VM-level recovery. Without macro recovery, IT teams face extended downtime restoring individual VMs one by one. Learn how VergeOS enables infrastructure-wide snapshots, simplifying disaster recovery, ransomware protection, and multi-tenant environments. Learn why macro recovery is essential for a resilient IT strategy.
