In the rapidly evolving world of virtualization and network security, businesses need reliable, cost-effective solutions that adapt to their unique environments. With Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware, numerous enterprises are now searching for alternatives to the VMware Hypervisor and NSX.
That’s why we’re pleased to introduce Oracle Linux partner Zero Networks. Zero Networks provides automated microsegmentation solutions that they have tested with Oracle Linux KVM and Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager. Putting these technologies together can give you a flexible and reliable alternative for the above mentioned VMware products.
Oracle Linux KVM is an open source hypervisor. It allows on-premises implementations to be configured the same as how it’s used by Oracle in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, which enables efficient and flexible deployment in distributed environments. While providing comparable virtualization capabilities to the VMware Hypervisor, Oracle Linux KVM has much lower support costs.
Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager is a server virtualization management platform that can be easily deployed to configure, monitor, and manage an Oracle Linux KVM environment. Oracle Linux KVM and Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager provide a modern, open source, high performance, zero licensing cost alternative to proprietary server virtualization solutions.
With the addition of Zero Networks’ all-in-one platform, you can simplify network security through automated, agentless network segmentation and advanced identity protection that extends across the virtualization stack, including Oracle Linux KVM hosts and Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager. This coverage can help address a critical gap in virtualization security, as highlighted by incidents like the ESXi hack, where hackers exploited vulnerabilities to compromise multiple VMs.
Implementing Zero Networks can be straightforward and efficient and is designed to work across diverse environments, supporting client, server, VM, and cloud workloads. This flexibility may be particularly beneficial for large enterprises with complex infrastructures.
