Architecture
- Overview
  Learn about VergeOS’ unique unfied architecture that integrates virtualization, storage, networking, AI, backup and DR into a single data center operating system
- VergeFS
  VergeFS is a distributed, high-performance global file system integrated into VergeOS, unifying storage across nodes, tiers, and workloads while eliminating the need for external SANs
- VergeFabric
  VergeFabric is VergeOS’s integrated virtual networking layer, delivering high-speed, low-latency communication across nodes while eliminating the complexity of traditional network configurations.
- VergeIQ
  Unlock secure, on-premises generative AI—natively integrated into VergeOS. With VergeIQ, your enterprise gains private AI capabilities without the complexity, cloud dependency, or token-based pricing.
Features
- Virtual Data Centers
  A VergeOS Virtual Data Center (VDC) is a fully isolated, self-contained environment within a single VergeOS instance that includes its own compute, storage, networking, and management controls
- High Availability
  VergeOS provides a unified, easy-to-manage infrastructure that ensures continuous high availability through automated failover, storage efficiency, clone-like snapshots, and simplified disaster recovery
- ioClone
  ioClone utilizes global inline deduplication and a blockchain-inspired file system within VergeFS to create instant, independent, space-efficient, and immutable snapshots of individual VMs, volumes, or entire virtual data centers.
- ioReplicate
  ioReplicate is a unified disaster-recovery solution that enables simple, cost-efficient DR testing and failover via three‑click recovery of entire Virtual Data Centers—including VMs, networking, and storage.
- ioFortify
  ioFortify creates immutable, restorable VDC checkpoints and provides proactive ransomware detection with instant alerts for rapid recovery and response.
- ioMigrate
  ioMigrate enables large-scale VMware migrations, automating the rehosting of hundreds of VMs (including networking settings) in seconds with minimal downtime by seamlessly transitioning entire VMware environments onto existing hardware stacks.
- ioProtect
  ioProtect offers near-real-time replication of VMware VMs—including data, network, and compute configurations—to a remote disaster‑recovery site on existing hardware, slashing DR costs by over 60% while supporting seamless failover and testing in an efficient, turnkey VergeOS Infrastructure.
- ioOptimize
  ioOptimize leverages AI and machine learning to seamlessly integrate new and old hardware and automatically migrate workloads from aging or failing servers.
IT Initiatives
- VMware Alternative
  VergeOS offers seamless migration from VMware, enhancing performance and scalability by consolidating virtualization, storage, and networking into a single, efficient platform.
- Hyperconverged Alternative
  VergeIO’s page introduces ultraconverged infrastructure (UCI) via VergeOS, which overcomes HCI limitations by supporting external storage, scaling compute and storage independently, using existing hardware, simplifying provisioning, boosting resiliency, and cutting licensing costs.
- SAN Replacement / Storage Refresh
  VergeIO’s storage by replacing aging SAN/NAS systems within its ultraconverged infrastructure, enhancing security, scalability, and affordability.
- Infrastructure Modernization
  Legacy infrastructure is fragmented, complex, and costly, built from disconnected components. VergeOS unifies virtualization, storage, networking, data protection, and AI into one platform, simplifying operations and reducing expenses.
- Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI)
  VergeOS for VDI delivers a faster, more affordable, and easier-to-manage alternative to traditional VDI setups—offering organizations the ability to scale securely with reduced overhead
- Secure Research Computing
  Verge.io’s Secure Research Computing solution combines speed, isolation, compliance, scalability, and resilience in a cohesive platform. It’s ideal for institutions needing segmented, compliant compute environments that are easy to deploy, manage, and recover.
- Venues, Remote Offices, and Edge
  VergeOS delivers resiliency and centralized management across Edge, ROBO, and Venue environments. With one platform, IT can keep remote sites independent while managing them all from a single pane of glass.
