From VMWare to Kubernetes: Unpacking the Technologies

This is the second talk between David O’Dwyer (LiveWyer), Anthony Hodson (Kubermatic) and Daniel Banche (Portworx) - if you missed the first one check it out here. Watch the full discussion below and check out our VMware Migration product.

Episode Overview

This episode demonstrates practical VM-to-container migration approaches that maintain operational familiarity while enabling cloud-native capabilities.

VMware costs forcing difficult decisions? Learn how containerisation offers a strategic path forward, not just cost savings. Our experts explore moving VMs to Kubernetes with practical migration strategies.

Validate your VMware migration strategy with LiveWyer’s VMware Migration Pilot - a 3-week migration pilot helping organisations understand migration feasibility and develop clear implementation roadmaps.
