Tech Talk | Modernizing Your Infrastructure: Running VMs on Containers with End-to-End Data Protection -- Virtualization Review

Tech Talk | Modernizing Your Infrastructure: Running VMs on Containers with End-to-End Data Protection

Date: Wednesday, February 11^th at 11am PT / 2pm ET

The Broadcom acquisition shook the VMware world. Bundled solutions, skyrocketing costs, and licensing complexity are forcing infrastructure teams to rethink their entire virtualization strategy. But migration isn't just about swapping platforms; it's about modernizing how you run workloads while maintaining the resilience and protection your business depends on.

Enter the convergence of modern virtualization and container-native data protection. SUSE Virtualization enables you to run VMs and containers side-by-side with unified management, while CloudCasa delivers enterprise-grade backup and disaster recovery purpose-built for these hybrid environments. Together, they offer a powerful alternative to legacy VMware architectures, without the vendor lock-in or cost overhead.

This isn't about rip-and-replace. It's about giving infrastructure teams a path to modernize on their terms, with lower TCO, multi-cloud flexibility, and protection that actually works for Kubernetes and VM workloads running together.

What You'll Learn

The real cost of staying put: Why VMware customers are evaluating alternatives, and what's driving organizations to modern virtualization platforms that support both VMs and containers.
Unified management without compromise: How SUSE Virtualization integrates with SUSE Rancher Prime to deliver multi-cluster container management alongside traditional VM workloads. One platform, zero silos.
Data protection that keeps pace: CloudCasa's approach to backing up and recovering containerized and VM-based applications across hybrid and multi-cloud environments, with disaster recovery capabilities that don't slow you down.
Migration strategies that work: Practical guidance on moving from VMware to modern infrastructure without business disruption, including architectural considerations and real-world deployment patterns.
