VM
Enterprise virtualisation
Create and manage virtual machines, migrate running workloads and control resource usage from one web interface.
Virtualisation · Storage · Backup
Run critical workloads on one resilient platform.
eEVOS brings enterprise virtualisation, high availability, flexible storage and integrated data protection into a single hardware-independent operating environment.

Why eEVOS
Infrastructure without the usual silos.
Instead of operating separate tools for the hypervisor, storage layer and backup, eEVOS places the essential infrastructure functions under one operational model.
HA
High availability
Monitor hosts and restart affected VMs on healthy nodes when infrastructure components fail.
ST
Storage choice
Use local, mirrored, shared or Ceph-based storage according to availability, scale and performance requirements.
BK
Instant Backup & Recovery
Protect workloads with rapid full-VM and file-level recovery, immutable recovery images, NAS or S3 backup and off-site disaster recovery.
Deployment models
Start with the architecture the workload needs.
eEVOS does not force every environment into the same storage design. The platform can be aligned with budget, availability objectives and future growth.
1
Single host
A compact platform for independent workloads, laboratories, branch offices or edge environments where operational simplicity matters most.
2
Mirrored two-node platform
Two servers synchronously mirror storage and provide a practical entry point for highly available virtualisation with seamless failover and no separate storage array.
3
Shared-storage cluster
Connect eEVOS hosts to enterprise storage over NVMe-oF, iSCSI or Fibre Channel when centralised block storage is preferred.
4
Ceph hyperconverged cluster
Combine compute and scale-out storage across multiple hosts for distributed resilience and incremental growth.
Migration path
Move workloads without rebuilding them.
Import assistants reduce the manual work involved in moving existing virtual machines to eEVOS.

Virtual Machine
Virtual Machine
Connect to VMware vCenter for VM discovery and guided import.
Convert common virtual disk formats through the graphical workflow.
Plan migration waves while the existing platform remains available.
VMware strategy
Keep VMware or move away—both paths remain open.
The right decision depends on application compatibility, operational experience, licensing strategy and the desired level of infrastructure consolidation.
Continue with VMware
Use euroNAS Premium, HA Cluster or eEKAS to provide file or block storage for an existing VMware environment, subject to the selected architecture and protocol requirements.
Move to eEVOS
Consolidate virtualisation, storage and backup on eEVOS and use the migration tools to bring workloads across in controlled stages.
Storage architecture
Choose storage by workload—not by habit.
Latency, capacity, resilience, operational complexity and scale all affect the correct storage model. eEVOS supports several approaches so the design can follow the requirement.
Local storage
Direct host storage for simple deployments and workloads that do not require clustered data availability.
Mirrored storage
Synchronous mirrored storage between two hosts for compact high-availability environments and seamless failover.
Shared storage
Enterprise storage connected through NVMe-oF, iSCSI or Fibre Channel, with multipath designs where required.
Ceph storage
Distributed storage across cluster hosts for resilience, horizontal expansion and hyperconverged operation.
Protocol and topology suitability must be validated against server, adapter, switch and workload requirements.
Integrated data protection
Backup & Disaster Recovery is a core part of eEVOS.
eEVOS combines multiple protection methods within the virtualisation platform: instant recovery images, file-level recovery, independent NAS or S3 backup and remote disaster recovery. Each layer addresses a different failure scenario without adding a separate operational silo.
Production
Running virtual machines
Business workloads remain under the same management model as compute, storage and networking.
Fast operational recovery
Instant Backup & Recovery
Frequent, immutable recovery images support rapid full-VM rollback as well as individual file recovery. VSS can be used for application-consistent protection of supported Windows workloads.
Independent protection
NAS, S3 and remote eEVOS
Separate backup targets and off-site replication extend protection beyond the production cluster and support disaster-recovery planning.
Rapid VM recoveryReturn a complete protected VM to service without waiting for a conventional full restore workflow.
Immutable recovery imagesProtect recovery points against modification or deletion from normal operational workflows.
Application consistencyUse VSS-based protection for supported Windows applications where consistent recovery points are required.
File-level recoveryRecover individual files when restoring an entire virtual machine would be unnecessary.
One recovery strategy, multiple layers: instant local recovery shortens operational downtime; independent NAS, S3 or remote copies address wider failure and disaster scenarios.
Operational view
One workflow from deployment to recovery.
The current R7 interface provides a consistent operational view across cluster health, virtual machines, migration and software-defined networking.
Cluster visibility
Health, resource utilisation, active VMs and Ceph status across a ten-node environment.
Virtual machine management
VM status, placement and resource allocation with direct access to operational actions.
Migration workflows
Import virtual machines from common hypervisors or connect directly to VMware vCenter.
Software-defined networking
Manage virtual switches, networks, profiles and host connections through one workflow.
Live migration
Move running virtual machines and rebalance workloads while services remain available.
Software-defined networking
Organise virtual networks and host connectivity centrally within the platform.
Snapshots and cloning
Create recovery points and independent VM copies for protection, testing and rollout workflows.
NAS and S3 backup
Send protected VM data to network storage or S3-compatible destinations for separation from production.
Instant Backup & Recovery
Create immutable recovery images, restore complete virtual machines rapidly and recover individual files when a full rollback is unnecessary.
Off-site disaster recovery
Replicate workloads to a remote eEVOS environment and define controlled recovery procedures.
Architecture first
Define the availability, storage and recovery objectives before selecting the topology.
We can review workload dependencies, migration constraints and recovery objectives and map them to an appropriate eEVOS or VMware storage architecture.
