Flant and Hystax have announced a technology partnership following successful joint testing of the Hystax Acura software suite and the Deckhouse Platform. The collaboration enables corporate clients to migrate virtual machines into the Cloud Native environment of Deckhouse Platform.

Engineers from both companies conducted tests from February to June 2026. The evaluation confirmed the functionality of Hystax Acura components within the Deckhouse environment, including controller deployment, cloud agent balancing, and data replication to the target infrastructure.

Hystax Acura facilitates background data replication at the application level, allowing IT departments to transfer terabytes of data without interrupting critical services. The system includes an isolated environment for pre-migration testing and verification before final traffic switching.

Deckhouse Platform serves as the target environment, allowing migrated virtual machines to operate alongside containerized workloads. The platform automates infrastructure configuration, including static IP addresses, subnets, and resource allocation, reducing the risk of manual errors.

The companies are now launching joint pilot projects. Future collaboration will focus on developing disaster recovery and backup scenarios for infrastructures built on Deckhouse products.
