Indonesian State-Owned Enterprise | Logistics & Infrastructure
A state-owned enterprise moves its workloads from VMware to Awanio to bring TCO under control
Challenge
This state-owned enterprise runs IT systems that support nationwide operations, so infrastructure decisions are about reliability and accountable spending, not experimentation. After the Broadcom acquisition changed VMware licensing, staying on the existing platform meant accepting a cost structure that no longer matched the value it delivered. The organization needed to lower its total cost of ownership without putting production workloads at risk.
Solution
The organization migrated its workloads from VMware to Awanio, with Vapor as the hypervisor and Cockpit for centralized management. Cockpit follows the same concepts as vCenter, such as clusters, hosts, VMs, and datastores, so the operations team keeps a familiar way of working while the organization leaves VMware subscription licensing behind.
OUTCOMES
Off VMware
workloads migrated from VMware to the Awanio platform
Lower TCO
the objective that drove the move away from VMware licensing

operating model, with vCenter-style concepts in Cockpit
