VergeOS oVirt Integration:
Live Demo with Veeam

What You Will See in This Session

This is a working demo, not a slide deck. Rick Vanover and Jason Yaeger walk through a complete VergeOS deployment with oVirt-based backup coverage running — start to finish in a single session, with live Q&A at the end.

Built for IT Teams in Active VMware Evaluation

This session is for infrastructure architects, IT managers, and systems engineers who are evaluating VMware alternatives and need to understand what happens to their existing data protection stack.

If your organization runs Veeam and you are under pressure to reduce VMware licensing costs, this session answers the most common question in every evaluation: will Veeam still work? The answer is yes. We will show you exactly how.

The Private Cloud OS Built for the VMware Exit

VergeOS consolidates compute, storage, networking, and security into a single software layer that runs on standard x86 hardware. VergeOS 26.1.2 implements the oVirt API natively, connecting enterprise backup platforms through a standard, unmodified driver — no custom integration, no professional services, no waiting.

The Backup Standard That Already Supports VergeOS

Veeam made a deliberate architectural decision to support KVM-based platforms through its oVirt driver. That decision means Veeam already works with VergeOS today — existing policies, schedules, and recovery workflows carry forward intact. For organizations with Veeam as their backup standard, VergeOS is the VMware alternative that removes the data protection barrier entirely.
