How we support VMware NSX → Tigera Calico after migration

  • Zero-downtime hot CNI transition for production clusters.
  • Fixed-scope project: 3-6 months, 2-3 senior engineers.
  • Scale dynamic network policy across any cloud or bare metal.
  • Vendor support stays active while you migrate on your timeline.
  • Post-migration: managed Tigera Calico platform maintenance.

Forced platform shift

Your team is moving from Tanzu to vanilla Kubernetes or OpenShift, but NSX-T Container Plugin (NCP) isn’t compatible—and you can’t afford service interruption.

Cost pressure plus complexity

VMware NSX-T licensing is eating your budget. You need to cut costs, but BGP routing configs inside NSX-T edges for Pod IP advertisements feel impossible to unwind.

Fear of downtime

Worried that a botched CNI swap will drop traffic, break policies, or cause a multi-hour outage in a critical production environment.

VMware NSX → Tigera Calico migration — your questions answered

Will I lose VMware support during the migration?+

No. Your existing VMware support contract can stay active while we migrate. If your renewal lapses, our third-party support covers most operational issues (not vendor patches) as you finish the move.

We have complex BGP routes in NSX-T edges—can you handle that?+

That is the most common blocker. Our engineers map existing NSX-T BGP routes to Calico IP pools and BGP peerings—no edge re-architecture required. We do this without traffic interruption.

Can you migrate a live, critical production cluster without downtime?+

Yes. We have completed dozens of zero-downtime transitions for banks, SaaS providers, and telecoms running on bare-metal or cloud Kubernetes.

How long does a typical migration take, and what does it cost?+

A typical NSX to Calico migration runs 3-6 months with 2-3 senior engineers. Budget is fixed from $60,000 to $400,000 depending on cluster scale and policy complexity.

Don’t let BGP routing configs scare you off. Our engineers handle the NSX-T edge integration, re-pod advertisement and policy translation — all within a fixed scope. After migration, we offer managed Tigera Calico platform maintenance and policy auditing to keep your container security tight. Ready to move?
