SUSE Virtualization
What is SUSE Virtualization? SUSE Virtualization is a modern, Kubernetes-native alternative to traditional hypervisors. Built on KubeVirt and running directly on bare metal, it enables you to manage virtual machines and integrated storage without the legacy overhead or complex licensing of conventional virtualization platforms. SUSE Virtualization provides full VM lifecycle management, distributed storage, and deep integration with SUSE Rancher Prime. Powered by Kubernetes and KubeVirt under the hood, it delivers a simplified experience - no Kubernetes knowledge required.
VMware vSphere
VMware vSphere with VCF 9.1 is the enterprise workload engine that modernizes compute infrastructure with a future-ready, scalable infrastructure and simplified management that enables organizations to extract maximum value from their current server investments and hardware footprint, rather than requiring a total refresh. vSphere provides a powerful foundation for modern, AI and traditional workloads, while enabling intrinsic security out-of-the-box.
