Compare Lumen Edge Private Cloud vs. OpenMetal

Align your IT strategy with your organizational objectives through a Software-Defined Data Center (SDDC). Lumen® Private Cloud powered by VMware Cloud Foundation™ integrates compute, storage, and network virtualization into a cohesive stack that revolutionizes the data center for the digital era. Enhance application performance while mitigating risks by streamlining processes and implementing security policies that adapt to workloads. This modernization facilitates the creation of agile, service-oriented IT environments that not only simplify management but also lessen the workload on IT teams, enabling the deployment of new settings in mere minutes. Utilize your current tools, avoid the need for new hardware investments, and benefit from a transparent cost structure that clearly outlines your expenses. Build hyper-converged infrastructure with HPE® or Dell hardware to focus on applications rather than the supporting infrastructure, ensuring optimal performance tailored to your needs. Ultimately, this approach paves the way for future innovations and growth within your organization.

OpenMetal reimagines Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) by delivering high-performance, OpenStack-powered private clouds, bare metal dedicated servers, and GPU clusters. Our platform is designed to scale with any organization, from agile startups to established enterprises. Historically, the power of a private cloud was gated by massive capital requirements and technical complexity. Because managing dedicated infrastructure demands specialized expertise and heavy hardware investment, it remained an exclusive tool for the world's largest corporations. OpenMetal changes that dynamic. We provide the sovereignty and agility of a private environment without the traditional burdens of manual construction or maintenance. -Rapid Deployment: Go live in as little as 45 seconds. -Full Control: Manage your own dedicated infrastructure immediately. -Accessibility: High-level cloud technology tailored for budgets of all sizes. We view open source not just as a software model, but as a global engine for progress. By fostering international collaboration and collective innovation, open source empowers individuals to build upon existing successes to create something better for everyone. Our goal is to streamline the path to open-source adoption. By removing technical friction, we enable teams and individuals to focus on what matters: contributing to the community and driving the future of IT.
