This integrated solution brings together Kasm Workspaces Kasm Technologies' cloudnative platform for secure containerized desktop streaming with Rancher and Harvester, the enterprise Kubernetes management and hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) platforms from Rancher Government Solutions. The result is a transformative VDI solution designed to meet the growing demand for cloudnative infrastructure, delivering a unified, scalable, and resource-efficient alternative to traditional hypervisor-based desktop environments.
Harvester integrates computing, storage, and networking into a single platform, simplifying VDI infrastructure and management under a unified control plane.
Rancher delivers centralized visibility and control across containerized workloads and legacy VMs, streamlining VDI orchestration through a consistent management interface.
By leveraging lightweight containers orchestrated on-demand, the joint solution ensures optimal hardware usage and dynamic allocation of VDI sessions based on real-time user demand.
Easily scale your virtual desktop environments to meet the needs of fluctuating workforces, including seasonal surges and remote work initiatives.
By reducing endpoint software maintenance costs and maximizing device lifespan, the joint solution contributes to IT modernization while supporting environmental sustainability goals.
Kasm Workspaces brings true enterprise VDI capabilities to Kubernetes with native support for auto-scaling using KubeVirt and Harvester via open-source helm charts. This joint solution is purpose-built for organizations embracing hybrid and multi-cloud strategies.
