Utah-based ValorC3 Data Centers, a colocation, cloud and connectivity provider, announced the launch of its new enterprise-grade private cloud platform, Valor Cloud. The fully managed platform provides an open-architecture alternative for enterprises facing rising virtualization licensing costs and unpredictable public cloud spend, delivering predictable long-term infrastructure economics, said the company.
The platform provides a clear exit strategy for VMware users, offering a phased migration approach that allows organizations to run legacy and modern environments in parallel while transitioning workloads with minimal disruption. Its open and flexible architecture also allows organizations to support emerging high-performance and AI workloads alongside traditional applications, enabling enterprises to evolve their infrastructure without requiring additional platform changes, explained the company.
“Enterprises are facing a turning point where shifting licensing structures and unpredictable public cloud fees are hindering innovation and growth,” said Jim Buie, CEO of ValorC3. “We engineered Valor Cloud to give infrastructure leaders a clear path forward, allowing them to bring workloads back under their control while supporting both legacy applications and next-generation workloads. With a secure, sovereign foundation and predictable cost model, our customers can scale on their terms without disruptive platform changes.”
Valor Cloud is built for enterprise environments on Platform9’s managed OpenStack technology. It restores operational control while simplifying infrastructure management, said the company. By combining automated operations with integrated data protection from Veeam, Valor Cloud enables enterprises to reduce infrastructure costs, simplify management and regain control over their cloud environments.
