Vates is a brand that is dedicated to providing open-source solutions for virtual infrastructure. With a rich history spanning over a decade, Vates has evolved from being a software integrator to becoming an innovative software publisher. Their flagship product, Xen Orchestra, was initially developed as an internal tool but gained popularity, leading to its transformation into an open-source solution with professional support.

Over the years, Vates has experienced remarkable growth, attracting major clients such as Kayak, Citrix, and BNP Paribas. The success of Xen Orchestra led to the launch of the XCP-ng project, an open-source virtualization platform that received overwhelming support through Kickstarter funding. As a testament to their commitment to open-source principles, Vates became part of the Linux Foundation and joined the RISC-V International, aiming to revolutionize open-source hardware infrastructure.

Their innovative solutions have gained recognition in Gartner's virtualization guide, alongside industry giants like Amazon and VMware. Driven by their core principles of kindness, openness, solidarity, and freedom, Vates continues to develop and maintain their Virtualization Management Stack, with a dedicated team of 100+ passionate individuals.
