STAKATER CSPs, telcos, and enterprises are buying OpenShift — then discovering there is no self-service portal, no multi-tenant management, no metering, no billing. They can't turn it into a cloud product. Stakater built that layer. It's already in production.
Cloud Orchestrator is the commercial layer that sits above OpenShift and turns it into a complete cloud product. It adds self-service provisioning, multi-tenant isolation, a service catalog, metering, and billing — so any organisation can offer cloud services to internal teams or external customers without touching the infrastructure underneath.
CSPs replacing VMware need a commercial layer above OpenShift Virtualization. Without one, the migration stalls. Cloud Orchestrator is that layer — available today.
OpenShift AI is powerful infrastructure. Cloud Orchestrator adds the self-service catalog and metering layer that turns it into GPUaaS — a product customers can consume and be billed for.
Every new tenant provisioned through Cloud Orchestrator requires more OpenShift capacity. The commercial layer accelerates node growth — it doesn't replace it.
Banks, telcos, and large enterprises want public cloud-like self-service on their own infrastructure. OpenShift alone doesn't deliver that experience. Together, it does.
Cloud Orchestrator isn't a fixed product — it's an extensible SDK. Any Red Hat partner, MSP, or SI can use it to define and commercialize their own managed services on OpenShift: VMaaS, GPUaaS, DBaaS, storage-as-a-service. The catalog is defined by the partner. It multiplies the range of OpenShift-powered offerings in market without Red Hat building each one.
We'd like to explore how Cloud Orchestrator fits into the Red Hat partner story for CSPs, telcos, and enterprise private cloud.
