Virtana announced a major expansion of its international operations to meet accelerating global demand.
Building on an established customer base across EMEA and Asia Pacific, Virtana is increasing regional investments to help enterprises manage performance, cost, and risk across complex, AI-era infrastructure.
"Our customers are scaling AI and mission-critical services across multi-cloud and on-premises estates, and they need clear, real-time visibility to keep performance high and costs in check," said Paul Appleby, CEO of Virtana. "Expanding our global presence ensures we're on the ground with the talent, partners, and support structure to help regulated industries move faster—without sacrificing resilience or governance."
Virtana's international expansion includes;
- Industry-specific solutions tailored to the regulatory and operational needs of key industries, including banking, insurance, telecommunications, healthcare, retail, airlines, and the public sector.
- Deeper partner engagement with regional system integrators (SIs), MSPs, and cloud providers to deliver joint solutions for complex hybrid estates.
- AI Factory Observability (AIFO) rollouts to help teams monitor GPU fleets, correlate token usage and model performance with infra telemetry, and optimize cost, capacity, and SLAs across the AI lifecycle.
- Local experts in solutions engineering, customer success, and professional services to accelerate time-to-value and strengthen executive alignment.
"CIOs and platform leaders tell us the same thing worldwide: complexity is rising faster than headcount," said Richard Connolly, VP of International. "With Virtana, they gain cross-layer visibility, from infrastructure to containers, services, and AI pipelines, so they can resolve issues faster, prove ROI, and scale responsibly."
