One platform, one lifecycle

One of the most significant innovations in VCF 9 is the principle of one integrated platform with one lifecycle. Where Private Cloud previously consisted of separate components with individual upgrades and dependencies, VCF 9 brings everything together into one unified Cloud stack.

Best of both worlds: Public Cloud experience, Private Cloud control

VCF 9 combines the best of both worlds:

  • The flexibility and user experience of Public Cloud
  • The control, security, and predictability of Private Cloud

Organizations benefit from self-service, automation, and scalability, without compromising on data sovereignty, compliance, or cost control.

Combined with Fundaments' fully Dutch Cloud platform, this creates a sovereign Cloud environment where data, infrastructure, and processes remain entirely under your own control.

One platform for all modern workloads

VCF 9 provides your organization with support for all modern workloads.

Do you need a fully scalable and sovereign Kubernetes environment, AI-powered compute, or a custom-configured IaaS infrastructure with advanced network security? And want to apply any storage you can imagine? It is all possible with VCF. Fundaments can flexibly expand your existing infrastructure or provide extra security with a disaster recovery solution.

Always the right route to VCF 9

Every organization starts from a different position. Whether you want a fresh start, already have an existing VMware environment, or are looking for a phased transition, Fundaments adds value in every scenario.

  • Greenfield: set up right from day one

Starting without an existing environment? Fundaments designs and implements a future-proof VCF 9 architecture immediately. Based on proven standards, but always tailored to your organization, compliance requirements, and expectations.

  • Migrate: moving forward in control

Already using a VMware environment? Fundaments guides the transition to a VCF 9 compliant environment: carefully and under control. With minimal impact on your operations, maintained continuity, and full command of risks, costs, and scheduling. Focused on maintaining your services, customized to your needs.

  • Embedded: business continuity over speed

Is an immediate switch not desirable or possible? Fundaments offers phased and hybrid scenarios where existing and new environments coexist (temporarily). This creates stability, predictability, and the space to grow toward VCF 9 step by step. Naturally, this is based on an appropriate lifecycle for your existing hardware architecture.

Always under the guidance of Fundaments: personal, a single point of contact, a unified architectural vision, and a clear path to a future-proof Private Cloud with VMware Cloud Foundation 9: an easy cloud ride.
