Modernization & freedom

Break the VMware lock-in

Migrate from VMware to Proxmox, Nutanix or a hyperscaler, with no service disruption.

What you get
Out of the licensing trap, with no service window.
A target platform per workload, not a one-size-fits-all.
Migration in waves with a rollback path all the way.
The problem

Broadcom's licensing changes turned a stable cost line into an open-ended risk. Renewal quotes 3-5x higher are now the norm, but your stack was never designed to leave.

  • Capex and opex balloon, often mid financial year.
  • Renewal becomes a boardroom issue, not an ops issue.
  • Specialist teams freeze new investment until the platform question is settled.
How it works

How we go about it.

01

Discover

Map dependencies for every workload: what is load-bearing, what is legacy, what can simply be retired.

02

Decide

A target platform per workload class: Proxmox for steady-state VMs, Nutanix for HCI, a hyperscaler for elastic ones.

03

Prove

A production-like pilot. Cutover plan, rollback path and SLO budget agreed before anything moves.

04

Migrate

Live workload migration in waves. No big bang. No service-impacting windows where they can be avoided.

Tools we trust.

We treat a VMware exit like an evacuation: people first, structure second, the building last. Order matters.

Customer case
5 years
with no redesign
LYKO

Designed and built a chassis-based data center fabric from scratch for LYKO's tripling of the central warehouse in Vansbro. Five years in production, a single hardware incident, and the platform still carries logistics automation around the clock.
