INMOTION CLOUD VS. VIRTUOZZO
Same open foundation. Without running it yourself.
Virtuozzo Hybrid Infrastructure and InMotion Cloud both build on KVM and OpenStack. With Virtuozzo you license the platform and operate it. With us, our engineers operate it for you, on our hardware, for one fixed monthly price.
- Built on OpenStack, like you know
- No license keys or node counts
- Container and VM migration
- Engineers in your Slack

A platform you operate, or a cloud we operate.
Virtuozzo sells a platform designed for service providers to build and sell their own cloud. Who runs it day to day depends on how you deploy it.
| What you compare | VIRTUOZZO HYBRID INFRASTRUCTURE | INMOTION CLOUD |
|---|---|---|
| What you buy | A cloud platform for service providers: KVM, OpenStack orchestration and software-defined storage.Source 1 | A private cloud, run for you. |
| How it’s licensed | License keys, time-limited or perpetual, that grant a set amount of resources per cluster.Source 2 | One fixed monthly price by plan. |
| Where it runs | In your datacenter, or on infrastructure managed for you.Source 1 | On our dedicated hardware, run by our engineers. |
| Who gets paged at 2am | Your team, if you run it yourself. | Our on-call engineer, 24/7. |
| Who patches the platform | Your team applies updates. | Our engineers, on a schedule you approve. |
| How you reach an engineer | Vendor support cases. | A shared Slack channel with the engineers who run your cloud. |

The license is one line. The team that runs it is another.
Virtuozzo pricing is structured by node or resource, and you still need the hardware and the people to operate the cluster.
Virtuozzo pricing is typically structured per node or per resource unit.Source 3
License keys grant a set amount of resources to each cluster.Source 2
The platform deploys in your datacenter unless you buy it managed.Source 1
Additional features or services may be priced as add-ons.Source 3
Hardware, platform and people in one price.

From one OpenStack-based platform to another.
Because both platforms share KVM and OpenStack, your VMs move with fewer surprises. System containers become instances. Our engineers map the details in your assessment.
- 1
Assess
We inventory your containers, VMs, storage and Kubernetes clusters.
- 2
Plan
We map each workload and review your OpenStack tooling for differences.
- 3
Migrate
We move workloads in phases, with a parallel run where you need one.
- 4
Validate
We test with your team, then cut over when you approve.
