Hyper-V Private Cloud
Migrating hypervisors may not have been on the 2026 vision board, but neither was a 400% increase in virtualization costs.
If you’re staring down an unexpected hypervisor migration, you’re in the right place. You can try Hyper-V Private Cloud with no obligation or pressure.

What’s Hyper-V Private Cloud from Summit?
Summit’s Hyper-V Private Cloud is a fully managed private cloud built on Microsoft Hyper-V. Summit operates the Hyper-V platform, host hardware, network, and storage, and handles patching, monitoring, and day-to-day operations to keep your environment stable. You manage your applications and guest operating systems.
If you’re coming from VMware or another platform, we can manage the migration for you. Once you’re live, we take ongoing platform management off your plate so your team can focus on higher-value work.
The result is a Microsoft-aligned private cloud with stability you can count on and US-based support you can actually reach.

Hyper-V Private Cloud is ideal for:
Teams exiting VMware that want to avoid another gamble
VMware pricing and licensing keep changing. Budgets can’t keep up. Hyper-V offers a proven, “big-name” hypervisor with predictable costs and long-term viability.
Teams that know private cloud is the answer but don’t want to pick wrong
You’re using on-prem, colo, bare-metal, or public cloud today. You’ve decided private cloud makes sense, you just don’t want to lock into a platform that creates more problems than it solves.
Teams using Azure that need to add private cloud
You want private cloud for steady workloads and Azure for scale, without managing two disconnected worlds. With Hyper-V and Azure Arc, you can manage your private and public workloads from one, centralized source.
Get a migration that improves things, not just moves them
If you’re considering migrating to a Hyper-V environment, there’s a good chance it’s because you want stability. Stable pricing. Predictable product roadmaps. No changes in ownership that throw everything into question.
But moving to Hyper-V shouldn’t feel like a forced march. It should feel like an upgrade.
Our approach focuses on stability first, then optimization. We help you migrate off legacy platforms while cleaning up inefficiencies, rightsizing resources, and eliminating unnecessary overhead along the way. The result is a private cloud environment that’s easier to operate, easier to scale, and easier to explain to finance.

Meet enterprise standards without enterprise friction
Your Microsoft Hyper-V environment is hosted in secure, compliant data centers. From infrastructure redundancy to access controls and monitoring, everything is designed for production workloads that can never go down.
We’ve been a long time customer, so we’re well aware of Summit’s capabilities. In this project, the unique aspect was our flexibility in options. We were able to use a mix of owned hardware, managed cabinets, managed hardware, and managed cloud to pull off the best fit for the product and migration. This is something we had trouble doing with both of the larger cloud providers.
