Legacy environments—especially those tied to rigid, aging virtualization platforms—can quietly hold you back (this can also be referred to as tech debt). Escalating licensing fees, isolated systems, and inflexible architectures slow innovation, drive up costs, and make everyday operations harder than they need to be. Similarly, cloud-native technologies and automation have moved from “nice to have” to “essential,” forming the backbone of true organizational agility.
As our clients plan their technology roadmap for the new year, one theme continues to dominate every conversation: modernization with little to no disruption. Many businesses want to move faster, adopt container platforms, and embrace cloud-native architectures—but still rely on virtual machines that power critical, revenue-driving applications.
How do you modernize without sacrificing stability, performance, or ROI? The answer is to treat modernization as a strategic initiative, not a last-minute reaction, which is where HighVail and Red Hat® OpenShift® Virtualization change the game.
Traditional virtualization platforms have served organizations well for years. But they weren’t built for the cloud-first, platform-as-a-service, automation-driven world we operate in today. Maintaining separate infrastructure stacks—one for VMs and one for containers—creates unnecessary complexity, cost, and operational friction.
OpenShift Virtualization helps you break down these silos by enabling you to run virtual machines and containers side-by-side on a single, unified platform. That means one skillset, one API, one operational model—without forcing risky “big-bang” migrations.
Modernization is not just about swapping out tools; it’s about rethinking the architecture that underpins your business. By consolidating onto the OpenShift unified platform, embracing automation, and preparing your stack for hybrid cloud and AI workloads, you can:
OpenShift Virtualization directly addresses these concerns while offering a smart path forward for organizations that want to modernize at their own pace. With the right expertise and guidance, modernization stops being a technical burden and becomes a strategic advantage.
HighVail and Red Hat have partnered for over a 15 years to help organizations build modern, resilient, and scalable platforms. Together, we ensure OpenShift Virtualization becomes more than a technical deployment—it becomes a foundation for long-term transformation.
