Compare to Your Current Infrastructure Costs

Estimated cost includes VMware Cloud Foundation software licensing, hardware, colocation, and staffing based on standard assumptions.

Storage-optimized scenario uses VMware VCF + Ceph, as vSAN does not support cold/object storage.

VMware usable storage:

  • Hot Storage (TB) 21
  • Cold Storage (TB) 0

Virtuozzo usable storage:

  • Hot Storage (TB) 27
  • Cold Storage (TB) 0

Estimated cost includes software licensing, hardware, colocation, and staffing based on standard assumptions.

AWS usable storage:

  • Hot Storage (TB) 27
  • Cold Storage (TB) 0

Virtuozzo usable storage:

  • Hot Storage (TB) 27
  • Cold Storage (TB) 0

Custom price

  • Compute Node Price ($/year)
  • Cold Storage Node Price ($/year)
  • Cold Storage ($/TB/year)

Your Estimated Savings with Virtuozzo

  • 52% Lower TCO
  • 29% More Storage
  • $93,926 Annual Savings
  • VMware $180,287
  • Virtuozzo $86,361

Estimated cost includes software licensing, hardware, colocation, and staffing based on standard assumptions. CAPEX is calculated using 3-year depreciation. Support costs are based on comparable SLA levels.

Your savings go beyond licensing costs:

  • Up to 90% utilization of your existing hardware
  • Built-in HCI (compute + storage), no extra overhead
  • No vendor lock-in, full control
  • Lower transition costs with a proven migration blueprint

Efficiency by Design: Built for Lower TCO at Scale

Virtuozzo reduces infrastructure costs without compromising performance — combining high-density compute, efficient resource utilization, and built-in monetization tools.

Higher Workload Density per Node

  • Run more workloads on each server and get lower cost per tenant

Smart Memory Allocation & Overcommit

  • Use RAM only when needed to reduce idle capacity and waste

Storage That Uses Less RAM Than Ceph

  • Lower memory footprint per node helps build large clusters without overhead

Near Bare-Metal Performance

  • Maximize performance for AI workloads and get more value from every GPU

Fast Scaling for AI Workloads

  • Scale training and inference instantly to handle demand without overprovisioning

Built-In Metering & Billing

  • Track and charge for actual usage to turn infrastructure into revenue
