As IT departments face economic pressures and the uncertainty surrounding VMware, many are turning to OpenStack as a cost-effective, future-proof alternative for on prem infrastructure.

In this webinar, Christian Huebner, Director of Architecture Services, and Heiko Kraemer, Principal Cloud Architect, both from Mirantis, will explore how transitioning from VMware to OpenStack can reduce costs and eliminate vendor lock-in. Together, they will guide you through the complexities of working with OpenStack’s core components - compute, software-defined storage (SDS), and software-defined networking (SDN) - demonstrating how to repurpose existing hardware to minimize upfront capital expenditure and accelerate return on investment (ROI).

Christian and Heiko will also cover cloud planning and deployment strategies that simplify OpenStack adoption, alongside best practices for monitoring and life cycle management (LCM) to ensure seamless Day 2 operations and optimized workload performance. Additionally, they will provide proven methodologies for migrating VMware workloads to OpenStack, ensuring operational continuity while enhancing agility and efficiency.

In this webinar, you will learn:
- The similarities and difference between VMware and OpenStack functionality
- How to repurpose hardware for faster ROI with minimal investment
- Best practices for simplifying deployment and optimizing OpenStack operations
- Proven methods for migrating VMware workloads to boost agility and performance

By the end of this session, you’ll have gained a comprehensive understanding of how OpenStack delivers significant business value, from substantial cost savings to increased control and scalability.
