“For Customers Worldwide Struggling with VMware Lock-in, We Founded LOGIQ.”

Founder & CEO/COO: Tomohito Kirihata
(Former Head of Open Source Products, Oracle Corporation Japan)

In December 2023, VMware abruptly announced changes to its licensing policies, enforcing a price increase ranging from 1.5x to 10x.
To overcome this situation, transitioning from the current environment is necessary. However, the complexity of migration is extremely high.
At LOGIQ, we address this challenge by providing LOGIQ Private Cloud, a fully open-source alternative to VMware. We also offer complete support for the migration process.

Introducing..LOGIQ Private Cloud

The Core Issue with VMware: “Excessive Dependence on a Single Vendor”

Sudden policy changes are not unique to VMware. Red Hat enforces a pricing model that requires companies to pay for all RHEL installations and RHEL clones within their organization if even a single RHEL instance is detected. IBM, after acquiring Red Hat, halted investments in KVM virtualization, shifting its strategic direction. Oracle revised its Oracle JDK licensing model in 2023, introducing a cost structure based on the total number of employees, leading to significantly higher expenses.
