  • Familiar VM management experience
  • Critical enterprise virtualization features : HA, DRR, networking, scale, reliability
  • Compatibility with all existing hardware environments, including 3rd-party storage
  • Automated migration tooling that lowers cost barrier by 10x

Platform9 was founded by a team of VMware cloud pioneers and has over 30,000 nodes in production at some of the world’s largest enterprises, including Cloudera, EBSCO, Juniper Networks, and Rackspace. Platform9 is an inclusive, globally distributed company backed by prominent investors, committed to driving private cloud innovation and efficiency.
