VMware to OpenStack Migration

Move VMware workloads to upstream OpenStack with a blueprint-first, wave-based migration program

Assessment, phased cutovers, validation, stabilization, and knowledge transfer with enterprise IAM integration, Keycloak-based SSO/MFA, and optional GxP-compliant migration governance.

Component-by-Component Mapping

Clear replacement paths for every VMware component

ESXiKVM (OpenStack Nova)
vCenterHorizon + OpenStack APIs + CMP
NSXNFV Modules + OpenStack Networking
VMware SRMDRM for KVM/OpenStack
Aria/vROpsCMP + AWX/Ansible + Observability
AD/LDAPKeycloak SSO/MFA + RBAC

Migration Program

End-to-end migration with enterprise-grade delivery

Assessment & Blueprint

Comprehensive inventory analysis and migration planning with clear milestones

Wave-Based Cutovers

Phased migration approach: pilot → non-critical → core production

Validation & Acceptance

Boot/driver validation, network/storage verification, application acceptance

Stabilization & Runbooks

Day-2 readiness with monitoring, alerts, and operational documentation

Knowledge Transfer

Team upskilling sessions and operator training for self-sufficiency

Enterprise IAM Integration

AD/LDAP integration with Keycloak SSO/MFA from day one
