Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization first-year free promotion

Eliminate overlapping subscription costs. Invest in your migration from Day 1.

Overview

The hardest part of leaving a virtualization platform isn’t technical. It’s managing the hidden cost of overlapping licenses while you migrate from an old platform to a new one. On qualifying 3-year agreements with a Virtualization Migration Assessment, we’re waiving the 1st year of your Red Hat® OpenShift® Virtualization subscription cost*. This lets you base your decision on the technology, the migration path, and what OpenShift Virtualization can do for your business—rather than the cost of running 2 platforms during the transition.

*Limited-time migration promotion. Available on qualifying deals signed by December 31, 2026.

What’s next for your workloads

Your immediate goal might be moving virtual machines, but your platform choice shapes what you can do next.

Red Hat OpenShift lets you:

Run containers alongside your VMs

Modern application development can happen on the same platform as your existing VM workloads, without creating a separate environment to buy, operate, and staff.

Bring AI closer to your applications and data

Run and integrate AI models on the same platform and infrastructure as the applications and data they need to work with.

Run workloads where they make sense

Use the same platform on-premise and across all major cloud providers, including AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, IBM Cloud, and Oracle Cloud, giving you greater flexibility in where workloads run over time.

Extend the platform to the edge

Retail sites, factories, and remote locations can operate on the same underlying platform as the datacenter.

Operate more consistently

Bring virtual machines, containers, and other application workloads under a common platform and operating model across environments.

Assess your environment

See what migrating your environment could look like at no cost. The free Red Hat OpenShift migration advisor gives you an initial snapshot of your VMware virtual machines, helping you understand a move to OpenShift Virtualization before speaking with anyone.
