One worker. One subscription. The complete virtual datacenter. No per-core tax. No feature tax.
per physical worker / year
32 cores or 192 cores. The STRATUM license costs exactly the same.
VIEW ALL PLANSSTRATUM's opportunity is not simply replacing ESXi, or another virtualization solution, with another hypervisor. That is a product swap, not a transformation. STRATUM's differentiator is one platform controlling the entire datacenter—including compute, networking, storage, security, GPUs, lifecycle operations, and AI-directed infrastructure operations.
Cheaper virtualization alone does not solve the fragmented datacenter. STRATUM is built to deliver value beyond the hypervisor license.
Put us to the test. Let us demonstrate reduced administration, faster deployments, faster recovery, and fewer separate management products in your environment. Judge the results, not the sales pitch.
Full platform evaluation for labs, proofs of value, and technical validation. No production use.
No per-core, per-socket, or per-VM fees. No accelerator tax. No separate management-server license.
The same complete platform, with pricing shaped by your fleet, operational requirements, service levels, and deployment commitments.
Free evaluation. No new host operating system. You are not being asked to adopt a newly packaged OS, discard your hardened Linux image, or replace your existing Linux support model. With STRATUM, you use the golden Linux image your team already secures and maintains, then run STRATUM as an application on that host.
Minimal disruption to your attack surface and support model. STRATUM Host Manager shows the host preparation changes in Plan before you choose Apply. Kernel, networking, container, and device configuration can still affect a host, so validate the plan and evaluate on non-production systems first. The goal is to keep OS ownership, hardening, patching, and support under your existing processes—not introduce an unfamiliar host operating system.
Built on a trusted container foundation. STRATUM's container is based on a hardened image from Platform One's Iron Bank, complementing the golden Linux host image and security controls your team already maintains.
REVIEW HOST REQUIREMENTS ↗You should be free to deploy a larger, more capable server without paying extra software licensing fees for additional cores. Modern processors should make infrastructure more powerful—not your license bill more expensive.
Choose a 32-core server or a 192-core server. With STRATUM, the annual production software subscription is exactly the same: $1,500 per worker. Predict your infrastructure software costs by counting physical workers, not cores, sockets, VMs, or GPUs.
Examples assume supported server hardware and one licensed production worker per physical server.
A worker is the physical server that runs or manages virtual infrastructure workloads. Control-plane-only systems do not require a worker license. A system that acts as both controller and workload host counts as one worker.
Compute, networking, topology, security controls, lifecycle operations, AI accelerator infrastructure, centralized management, and AI-directed operations are part of the platform. We do not turn each infrastructure capability into another license to buy.
Bring us the environment you operate today. Challenge STRATUM to show what it can simplify, consolidate, deploy, and recover.
