At CloudFest 2025 in Germany, Virtuozzo and ZTE launched a new Hyper-Converged Infrastructure (HCI) solution that supports alternative cloud providers and enterprises to deploy independent clouds. The cooperation integrates ZTE’s leading-edge hardware with Virtuozzo’s cloud and virtualization software to form an efficient, budget-friendly alternative for conventional cloud service.

With increasing demand for sovereign cloud infrastructure, the agreement allows companies to minimize operational expense while having full control over cloud infrastructure. HCI technology provides computing that scales with business needs, resource optimization, and increased efficiency, serving the telecommunications operators, government, and enterprise customers.

The launch is an important milestone for ZTE and Virtuozzo’s partnership, which was established in the latter part of 2024. By merging hardware and software into one offering, the two companies hope to streamline IT architecture, enhance flexibility, and reduce Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for cloud service providers.

ZTE’s intelligent computing expertise and Virtuozzo’s software-defined cloud competence make the solution a competitive choice over vendor-reliant cloud infrastructures. Users can rapidly deploy infrastructure, scale business operations, and maximize IT resources independently of major hyperscalers.

With increasing competition in cloud computing, ZTE and Virtuozzo will keep pushing the boundaries, making high-performance, self-governing cloud solutions more accessible to business enterprises and service providers. Their continued partnership is a move toward less closed, economical, and self-contained clouds.
