Mirantis k0rdent Enterprise and k0rdent Virtualization enable fast, non-disruptive deployment and portability of modern and traditional workloads anywhere

CAMPBELL, Calif.: #AI--Mirantis, providing organizations with total control over their strategic infrastructure using open source software, today announced Mirantis k0rdent Enterprise and Mirantis k0rdent Virtualization, unifying infrastructure for AI, containerized, and VM-based workloads through a Kubernetes-native model, streamlining operations for high-performance AI pipelines, modern microservices, and legacy applications alike.

k0rdent bridges the gap between containerized and virtualized infrastructure with:

• Unified Infrastructure Management - Seamlessly manage AI services, modern containers, and VM-based workloads under one Kubernetes-native control plane, reducing complexity and siloed tooling.
• Scalability and Automation - Leverages Kubernetes' orchestration capabilities to automate containers and VM provisioning, scaling, and recovery for consistent performance at scale.
• Improved Resource Utilization - Optimizes compute and storage usage across workloads through automated scheduling and dynamic resource allocation.
• Faster Time-to-Value - Accelerates deployment cycles and reduces provisioning delays with declarative infrastructure and self-service container and VM templates.
• Enhanced Portability and Flexibility - Runs AI applications and modern microservices alongside traditional VM-based applications on any cloud or on-premises infrastructure without having to refactor applications.

"Organizations are navigating a complex mix of legacy systems and emerging AI demands,” said Shaun O’Meara, chief technology officer, Mirantis. “k0rdent Enterprise and k0rdent Virtualization are delivering a seamless path to unified, Kubernetes-native AI infrastructure, enabling faster deployment, easier compliance, and reduced risk across any public, private, hybrid, or edge environment.”

With k0rdent, platform engineers can define, deploy, and operate consistent, policy-enforced Kubernetes infrastructure using declarative automation, GitOps workflows, and validated templates from the Mirantis ecosystem. Leveraging the self-contained open source k0s, CNCF Sandbox Kubernetes distribution, k0rdent simplifies infrastructure management and accelerates digital transformation initiatives.

k0rdent Virtualization runs on Mirantis k0rdent Enterprise as an alternative for VMware products vSphere, ESXi, and vRealize. By supporting legacy infrastructure, k0rdent Virtualization is particularly suited for enterprises modernizing application portfolios and expanding edge infrastructure with AI and cloud native workloads.

k0rdent is designed to support modern distributed workloads across any infrastructure. It enables platform engineering teams to manage Kubernetes clusters at scale, create customized internal developer platforms (IDPs), and accelerate innovation while maintaining compliance and operational consistency. k0rdent delivers composable, Kubernetes-native capabilities through declarative automation, centralized policy enforcement, and production-ready deployment templates for environments including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), vSphere, and OpenStack.

k0rdent Enterprise and k0rdent Virtualization are available directly from Mirantis or via channel partners.
