How we support SUSE Rancher → VMware Tanzu after migration

  • Dual-competency consultants for Rancher and Tanzu.
  • Fixed-scope SUSE Rancher to VMware Tanzu migration.
  • Senior engineers handle SLES host dependencies.
  • Preserve custom Helm repos during cutover.
  • Legacy platform supported on your timeline.

Hypervisor Alignment Pressure

Broadcom enterprise licensing forces consolidation—you need to align container orchestrators under vSphere teams.

Legacy Platform Lock-In

SLES-specific dependencies and custom Helm repos complicate your migration, risking downtime or rework.

Overlay Policy Uncertainty

Complex non-NSX network policies fear breaking during cutover, stalling your move to Tanzu.

SUSE Rancher → VMware Tanzu migration — your questions answered

How exactly do you migrate SUSE Rancher to VMware Tanzu?+

Our senior engineers assess your current Rancher setup, define a fixed scope, and migrate workloads to Tanzu using a phased approach—keeping your old cluster under vendor support while the contract is active. If your SUSE Rancher renewal lapses, our third-party support covers most operational issues during the move.

What about my existing Rancher custom Helm repos and SLES host dependencies?+

We handle SLES-specific dependencies by containerizing workloads, re-platforming to TKG, and resolving any Helm repo incompatibilities. No big-bang cutover required.

Do I need NSX to migrate complex network policies?+

Not necessarily. We evaluate your network policies and reapply them in Tanzu without needing NSX—keeping overlays intact.

Will my legacy SUSE Rancher clusters still be supported during migration?+

Yes—our dual-competency team ensures your old clusters stay operational (vendor support while active, third-party support for most issues if it lapses) while we execute the move on your timeline.
