Rising virtualization costs, licensing constraints, and operational complexity are driving teams to evaluate more flexible and cost-effective paths to the cloud. Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization, combined with Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS (ROSA), supports hardware overcommit in the cloud, allowing customers to run more virtual machines (VMs) on fewer cloud resources. By aligning resource consumption more closely to actual usage patterns, organizations can significantly reduce compute costs. This provides a practical way to consolidate VM footprints and maximize the value of cloud investmen
