Hybrid Cloud Solutions

Platform9 Managed OpenStack is a SaaS solution based on OpenStack.
You provide the systems, we provide hybrid cloud solutions as a service.

Similar to Amazon Web Services (AWS), Platform9 is as easy as signing up and getting right to work. The big difference is that AWS relies on hardware and infrastructure wholly owned and controlled by Amazon. By contrast, Platform9’s hybrid cloud architecture uses servers, storage, and virtualization environments that you own and control, wherever they may happen to be. Our OpenStack-based orchestration layer delivers full private cloud automation, enabling self-service and and many other use cases within minutes at any scale.

  • Edge Computing
  • Managed Kubernetes Service on VMware
  • Managed Service Providers
  • Cloud Visibility and Control
  • Infrastructure Cost Reduction
  • Self-Service Provisioning
  • DevOps Automation
  • Realize Hybrid Cloud Faster
  • Multi-hypervisor Manager

“Platform9’s API-first design, orchestration, and automation accelerated our CI/CD commitment to more releases driving customer value. This is how we want to go forward: faster deliveries and easier pipelines.”
