OpenShift Virtualization QuickStart
Rapidly evaluate and adopt a high-availability virtualization platform within your OpenShift environment.
The Challenge: Unifying Virtual Machines and Containers
As organizations modernize, they face the challenge of managing traditional virtual machine workloads alongside new containerized applications. This often results in separate, siloed infrastructures, leading to increased complexity, operational inefficiency, and slower innovation cycles.
There is a critical need for a unified platform that can run and manage both VMs and containers seamlessly. This solution must provide a clear path for migrating and managing virtual workloads with enterprise-grade availability, security, and simplified operations, without requiring teams to learn entirely new toolsets.
