Watch this demo with our DevRel lead, Nic Vermandé, to unlock the future of VMs on Kubernetes with Palette's new feature, Virtual Machine Orchestrator (VMO).

As containers continue to take over the world, one key questions keeps surfacing: how do we make virtualization and containers coexist within the enterprise?

KubeVirt is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) incubating project that enables KVM-based virtual machine workloads to be managed as pods in Kubernetes. This means that you can bring your VMs into a modern Kubernetes-based cloud native environment.

But KubeVirt is not an enterprise-ready, complete solution, even though it has recently hit v1.0 after half a dozen years of development. From its initial installation and configuration to ongoing lifecycle operations like live migration of a running VM, there’s manual work and complexity at every stage.

That's where VMO comes in.

Palette VMO provides a pre-configured and curated implementation of KubeVirt with full enterprise-grade technical support, faster and more resilient full-lifecycle bare metal management, full-stack VM declarative management and orchestration, and access to 50+ out-of-the-box ecosystem integrations (with the option of bringing your own) for both containers and VMs, together with many other core Palette features. It enables a GitOps approach for both VMs and containers simultaneously, offering a unified, comprehensive management solution for your infrastructure.

By augmenting KubeVirt with these added capabilities, Palette VMO ensures that you get the full benefits of a hybrid platform, without having to deal with the complexities of managing it all yourself.
