The special economic zone (SEZ) of the industrial and production type "Alabuga" has implemented the zVirt platform from the developer Orion soft. The virtualization system ensured the operation of all basic infrastructure services of the SEZ and provided opportunities for scaling server capacities.

"Alabuga" is an industrial cluster that supports the work of 52 residents — high-tech, including unique import-substituting industries. For them, Alabuga acts as a full-cycle algeria whatsapp number databa se infrastructure partner, providing them with engineering, business, social, and IT resources. Residents are provided with computing power by their own data center, which appeared in the SEZ in 2023 as part of a project to modernize and scale the IT infrastructure.

their development, the management company implements IT systems that help optimize utility lines, gamify training, virtualize workplaces, and work with 3D graphics.

Previously, the Alabuga SEZ used the VMware virtualization platform to support its IT systems. However, after the vendor cut off Russian clients from support, the management company had a goal to adapt to changes in the market and optimize the IT infrastructure in order to continuously provide residents with a high level of IT services and maintain the performance, fault tolerance, and security of the systems regardless of external factors. In this regard, the Alabuga SEZ decided to migrate to a Russian virtualization solution.

It was important for the company to find a product that would be provided with technical support in the long term and would fully cover the needs that VMware had previously met. In particular, the SEZ was interested in clustering functions, "hot" migration of virtual machines, the ability to operate the hypervisor both on the host and under the Engine, and support for data storage systems.

After testing several solutions, including those based on KVM and freely distributed software, "Alabuga" chose the zVirt server virtualization system from Orion soft for implementation. Today, 16 infrastructure loaded hosts operate under its management in the SEZ. All applications of basic IT services, from "1C" to resource-intensive applications for 3D design, are deployed in zVirt virtual machines.
