Cloudification Offers Open-Source-Based Alternative to VMware as Enterprises Seek Exit Strategies

Berlin, September 4, 2025 - With many companies reconsidering their dependency on VMware following license changes and rising costs, Berlin-based IT infrastructure specialist Cloudification is gaining attention for providing a viable alternative rooted in open-source technologies such as OpenStack and Ceph.

As a recognized member of the OpenInfra ecosystem, Cloudification supports companies in migrating away from proprietary virtualization platforms toward open, flexible private cloud environments. The company's Private Cloud solution, c12n (https://cloudification.io/c12n-private-cloud/), enables seamless migration from VMware-based workloads to fully open-source platforms without compromising performance, stability, or security.

"We're seeing a growing number of CIOs and IT decision-makers looking for a way out of vendor lock-in," says Dmitry, CEO of Cloudification. "OpenStack has matured significantly over the years and is now more than capable of running critical production workloads. What was once a niche technology is now becoming a strategic cornerstone for forward-looking IT infrastructure."

Cloudification has been cited by the OpenInfra Foundation for its work in providing practical comparisons between VMware and open alternatives, helping decision-makers evaluate long-term infrastructure strategies. Through a combination of automation, modular design, and open standards, Cloudification offers organizations a future-proof path toward digital sovereignty.

Beyond migration services, Cloudification also supports the full lifecycle of private cloud deployments, including planning, training, monitoring, and operations. With a focus on transparency and maintainability, the company is appealing to public sector entities, research institutions, and SMEs alike.
