Everpure enhances Portworx Enterprise for VM and container workloads

Everpure has announced new capabilities for Portworx Enterprise to support organizations running enterprise level VMs and containers in cloud, hybrid and on-premise environments. These updates allow organizations to embrace modern virtualization, accelerating provisioning, simplifying automation, and saving time through a proven, enterprise-grade platform which has already migrated over a hundred thousand VM Volumes to Kubernetes.

Organisations that rely on virtual machines are increasingly re-evaluating their virtualisation strategy and moving to Kubernetes to run critical applications. According to the Portworx 2026 Voice of Kubernetes Report, 71% of organizations plan to modernize and/or migrate their VMs to Kubernetes. Migrating at scale introduces challenges around performance, operational risk, and security. According to the Report, 56% believe backup, Disaster Recovery, and high availability are the most critical capabilities for any new virtualization platform. Organizations need a proven enterprise-ready platform that can run both traditional VMs and newer container-based applications and support migration at scale, while remaining secure, compliant and reliable.

New capabilities delivered by Portworx Enterprise provide comprehensive services for data storage, governance, and security that make it possible to migrate and run VMs on Kubernetes at enterprise scale. The solution is already running over a hundred thousand VM Volumes on Kubernetes seamlessly across on-premises, hybrid and cloud environments, and enterprises are already using it as a foundational platform to power successful Kubernetes deployments.

Customer impact
By bridging the gap between traditional reliability and cloud-native agility, the latest Portworx Enterprise capabilities support customers to embrace modern virtualisation by adopting Kubernetes at speed and at scale. The proven repeatable VM migration with validated architectures leads to time and budget saving, and a more streamlined experience for customers via a unified platform and automation. For enterprises embarking on this journey, this proven solution provides reassurance that Portworx Enterprise can handle the scale and complexity of large scale migrations.

Executive insight
“The shift to modern virtualization is accelerating. As VMs join AI and cloud-native applications running on Kubernetes as an industry standard, Portworx is delivering the performance, protection and governance required for demanding organizations, at global scale. With over a hundred thousand VM Volumes now deployed, we aren’t just promising a future-proof solution—we are already delivering it.” – Greg Muscarella, GM, Portworx by Everpure.

“Organizations are increasingly exploring modern virtualization approaches that bring VM-based workloads into Kubernetes environments alongside containerized applications. Successfully making this transition requires enterprise data services, protection, and governance capabilities. Platforms such as Portworx by Everpure can help support these operational requirements as organizations modernize their virtualization infrastructure.” – Johnny Yu, Research Manager, Infrastructure Software Platforms, IDC.
