Platform9 Managed KubeVirt is the managed KubeVirt solution to offer a unified platform to run virtual machines alongside containers.

"Traditional virtualization solutions are expensive and managing a virtualization stack in addition to Kubernetes is complex and error-prone," said Madhura Maskasky, VP of Product at Platform9.

"With Platform9 Managed KubeVirt, developers get the best of both worlds without having to port all of your applications to containers or manage two entirely separate stacks. And, as a 100% open-source solution there is no vendor lock-in."

KubeVirt VMs are created in Platform9 Managed Kubernetes clusters and can be managed using the same centralized SaaS management plane.

Platform9 Managed KubeVirt enables users to manage VMs by Kubernetes alongside containers to overcome the operational silos that exist today and standardize on Kubernetes as the control plane.

End-users are able to leverage Kubernetes benefits such as declarative interfaces, scalability, and automation for your VMs. Maskasky continued, "Virtualization platforms are not always a good fit for verticals like edge computing, telco/5G, and machine learning, where application performance matters most. Platform9 Managed KubeVirt makes deploying and managing KubeVirt seamless, allowing end-users to focus on the projects and applications that impact their business."
