Capabilities

From "we want off VMware" to a running cloud.

Below is everything we do, in the rough order most engagements touch them — though every engagement is scoped independently.

Custom Deployment

A one-button-style OpenStack rollout, designed around your specific hardware and storage from day one — not a generic reference install adapted after the fact.

  • Environment assessment before any config is written
  • Deployment tooling built from prior real-world rollouts
  • Staged rollout with validation at each layer

Hardware & Storage Integration

We configure and integrate any client-specified hardware, and support a wide range of storage backends — no rip-and-replace required.

  • Works with existing servers, switches, and disks
  • Broad storage backend support (block, object, file)
  • Driver and firmware compatibility handled up front

Hardware & Infrastructure Purchasing

We source servers, storage, and networking specified against the environment we're building — not a stock configuration adapted after the fact.

  • Specified against your deployment design, not a generic bill of materials
  • Sourced to work alongside the equipment you already run
  • Available on its own, without a Stravos deployment

GPU & Specialized Workloads

Need GPU-backed compute or another specialized capability? We build it into the environment from the start, not bolted on after launch.

  • GPU passthrough and scheduling configured natively
  • Support for specialized accelerators on request
  • Capacity planned around real workload requirements

VMware & Cloud Migration

Move workloads off VMware, Azure, or AWS onto OpenStack with a migration plan built for minimal disruption to production systems.

  • Workload-by-workload migration sequencing
  • Rollback plan defined before cutover
  • Parallel-run support to de-risk the switch

Hardware Buy-Back

A migration frees up hardware. Rather than leaving it idle in a rack or paying to dispose of it, we'll buy it back.

  • Valued with or without drives — keep your disks and the data never leaves your building
  • Quoted before you commit, and what we pay comes off your migration cost
  • Available even if the migration wasn't ours

Performance & Scalability Tuning

We optimize the environment for the way your team actually works, not just a default install — tuned for your real traffic and growth pattern.

  • Bottleneck identification across compute, storage, network
  • Scaling plan tied to your growth projections
  • Ongoing tuning available post-launch

Training & Ongoing Support

Your team is trained to run the environment independently, with Stravos's knowledge base and 24/7 support behind them if something comes up.

  • Live walkthrough of your actual environment, not a demo
  • Documentation scoped to your specific deployment
  • 24/7 support available after handoff

Not sure which services you need?

Tell us what you're running and where it's costing you the most, and we'll scope an engagement around that — not a fixed package.
