Enterprise · Bring your own cloud

VMware for cloud VMs.

Consolidate your fleet into isolated containers on the cloud VMs you already run — governed, sovereign, and the native runtime for your AI agents. Your data never leaves your own cloud account.

The whole idea, one mapping

You already know this product.

VMware sat on your servers and turned each one into many isolated VMs. Containarium sits on your cloud VMs and turns each one into many isolated containers — no hypervisor tax. Same idea, one layer up the stack.

Runs on your bare-metal servers
Runs on your cloud VMs
1 server → many isolated VMs
1 VM → many isolated containers
vCenter manages the fleet
One control plane: RBAC, audit, DNS, backups
Isolation via the hypervisor
Isolation via containers + QoS — no hypervisor tax
Lives in your datacenter
Lives in your cloud account

Where each layer lives

Three layers, one boundary.

Your applications, the VMs beneath them, and the cloud beneath those. With BYOC, all three sit inside your own cloud account — so your data never leaves your jurisdiction.

All three layers sit in your account, your region, your jurisdiction — your data never leaves it.

Consolidate the sprawl

Pack many isolated services onto the VMs you already run — instead of one instance per workload. Fewer, denser machines, each container walled off with eBPF egress policy and QoS.

Governed & sovereign

RBAC, audit log, SSO, security scanning and backups — over infrastructure that never leaves your account or your boundary. Built for data residency and compliance. See the residency detail →

Native home for AI agents

The same isolation makes a fleet of agents safe: one SSH-accessible box each, every action audited, all on your own cloud. Sovereign AI, with no integration to build.

What buyers ask

The questions, answered.

Why not just use VMware?

VMware is a bare-metal hypervisor — in the cloud that means dedicated metal hosts at cluster minimums, and it gives you heavy full VMs, not containers. We deliver the same consolidation with containers on the cloud VM you already rent — no hypervisor tax, no bare-metal commitment.

Why not just use Docker?

Docker is the engine we build on. Alone it's a runtime with no tenant isolation — a shared kernel is no boundary for untrusted agents — no RBAC, audit or SSO, and no one to operate it. We're the hardened, governed platform on top.

Why bring our own cloud instead of hosted?

Hosted runs your workloads on someone else's account. BYOC keeps compute in your cloud, in your boundary — required for sovereignty and residency, and the infrastructure stays entirely yours.

Run it on your own cloud.

Enterprise BYOC is sales-led — we'll scope your fleet, your regions, and your governance and compliance needs. Licensed per vCPU, like vSphere per core.
