Virtualization Without the Overhead
The Problem
Virtualization environments have become harder to justify
Most virtualization environments weren’t designed for today’s operational realities:
- Licensing models that change frequently and drive unpredictable costs
- Architectures that rely on multiple components—hypervisor, SAN, backup, management tools
- Infrastructure that’s overbuilt for remote and edge locations
- Small IT teams spending too much time maintaining platforms instead of supporting the business
The result is an environment that’s expensive, complex, and increasingly difficult to justify.
The Solution
A simpler virtualization architecture by design
Scale Computing Platform (SC//Platform) consolidates virtualization, compute, and storage into a single hyperconverged platform designed to reduce operational complexity.
Instead of stitching together multiple technologies, Scale provides:
- A built-in hypervisor
- Distributed storage across nodes
- Centralized management from one interface
Everything works together by design—no external dependencies required.
Scale Computing Platform Capabilities
Integrated Virtualization
Scale Computing Platform includes a native hypervisor as part of the system, removing the need for third-party virtualization software. Virtual machines are created, migrated, and managed through their full lifecycle with high availability enabled by default.
Built-In Storage
Storage is distributed across all nodes in the cluster, eliminating the need for external SANs or dedicated storage controllers. Data is automatically protected and placed to balance performance and resilience without manual tuning.
Resilience and Availability
The platform is designed to self-heal in response to hardware or node failures. Automatic VM-level failover, snapshots, and replication options support recovery without relying on separate availability tools.
Operational Simplicity
All infrastructure is managed through a single interface, reducing day-to-day administrative effort. Upgrades are non-disruptive, and environments can scale linearly without re-architecting.
What’s Not Required
Scale removes the need for external storage arrays, third-party hypervisors, separate management platforms, and bolt-on availability tools—reducing architectural complexity from the start.
Where Scale Computing Fits Best
VMware Replacement or Diversification
Reduce dependency on complex licensing models while maintaining enterprise-grade virtualization.
Edge and Remote Office / Branch Office Deployments
Run reliable virtualization in locations without dedicated IT staff.
Core Infrastructure Refresh
Modernize aging virtualization platforms with a smaller footprint and simpler operations.
Lean IT Teams
Support more workloads with fewer resources and less day-to-day maintenance.
