Platform9 has updated its Private Cloud Director software with a new Linux distribution, Platform9 OS, aimed at companies moving away from VMware.
The release adds a KVM-ready Linux layer designed to reduce the Linux administration needed to deploy, run and upgrade a private cloud environment. It also extends observability and support for self-hosted deployments to match features already available in the software-as-a-service version.
The changes come as many corporate technology teams reassess their infrastructure after Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware and amid a wider shift towards Kubernetes-based systems for newer application workloads. Platform9 is positioning the release at organisations that want to retain a familiar virtualisation operating model while changing the underlying software stack.
