Atmosphere
OpenStack cloud platform
Open-source OpenStack deployment platform that runs OpenStack on top of Kubernetes, with VMs, Kubernetes, bare metal, block and object storage and load balancers. Offered as a multi-tenant public cloud, a hosted single-tenant private cloud, or on-premises with support.

VEXXHOST released Atmosphere v7.0.0 with support for OpenStack 2025.2 Flamingo, adding Rocky Linux 9 and AlmaLinux 9 support, new Ceph monitoring dashboards, BGP routing with OVN via frr-k8s, and security hardening such as TLS 1.3 enforcement for libvirt's remote API.
