Kasten for modern virtualisation
Red Hat OpenShift Virtualisation Engine claims to help organisations replace legacy virtualisation capabilities using the Red Hat OpenShift platform.
Veeam has released Kasten for Modern Virtualisation, a tailored pricing option to align with the Red Hat OpenShift Virtualisation Engine. It claims to offer a security-enhanced and cost-effective foundation for modernising virtualisation and enhancing operational efficiency.
"Red Hat OpenShift Virtualisation Engine provides customers with a dedicated virtualisation edition to migrate, manage and scale virtual machines. As enterprises advance their hybrid cloud strategy by rapidly re-hosting virtualised apps to platforms designed for modern virtualisation, data resilience remains a strategic imperative," said Mike Barrett, vice president and general manager of Hybrid Platforms, Red Hat.
