In the enterprise IT landscape, infrastructure leaders are facing a breaking point. Soaring renewal costs, rigid licensing constraints, and the rising operational complexity of legacy virtualization platforms have left many organizations feeling trapped.
But you don’t have to pay the “legacy tax” any longer. A powerful shift toward open, high-performance, and cost-effective alternatives is underway.
We are excited to highlight our collaboration with Oracle: “Stop Settling for High-Cost Legacy Virtualization with Oracle & StorPool SDS.” Watch the full discussion below to see how this joint solution changes the game for modern private clouds.
Why StorPool with Oracle Virtualization?
For organizations actively evaluating their migration path away from VMware, or looking to build a highly resilient sovereign private cloud, this partnership provides a production-proven alternative. By utilizing Oracle Virtualization (built on open standard Oracle Linux KVM) alongside StorPool’s ultra-fast Software-Defined Storage (SDS), you can build a next-generation Hyperconverged Infrastructure (HCI) tailored for demanding workloads.
When you back Oracle Virtualization with StorPool Storage, your infrastructure benefits from four core advantages:
1. Blazing-Fast, Ultra-Low Latency Performance
Legacy hyperconverged setups often force you to trade performance for simplicity. StorPool eliminates this bottleneck entirely, delivering sub-100 microsecond (µs) in-VM latency and millions of IOPS. Whether you are running mission-critical enterprise databases or heavy AI and e-commerce applications, StorPool ensures your storage layer is never the bottleneck.
2. Ultimate Scaling Flexibility
Traditional HCI architectures lock you into rigid scaling boxes—requiring you to buy compute power when you only need storage capacity or vice versa. The StorPool and Oracle architecture breaks down these silos. You can scale linearly, adding compute-only or storage-only nodes as needed, and safely deploy heterogeneous server models without vendor lock-in.
3. Seamless Integration and Zero-Downtime Operations
StorPool connects to Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager (OLVM) via a clean, light-weight plugin with no legacy code or external dependencies. Because the layers are decoupled, you can perform storage updates or scale up hardware non-disruptively without affecting your hypervisor.
4. Fully Managed “Sleepability” as a Service
Why burn your internal engineering resources on daily storage tuning and maintenance? StorPool is a Fully Managed Storage platform. Our expert engineers handle everything from initial architecture and deployment to 24/7/365 proactive monitoring and lifecycle management. We take care of the storage so your team can focus on running applications.
Reclaim Control of Your Data Center
You don’t have to let legacy infrastructure vendors dictate your IT budget. By pairing the enterprise reliability of Oracle Virtualization with the extreme speed and agility of StorPool SDS, you can drastically reduce your Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) while gaining a simpler, more resilient cloud stack.
