Published on Feb. 24, 2026

VergeIO, the creator of VergeOS, the industry's first private cloud operating system, has announced the release of VergeOS 26.1.

Why it matters

The 26.1 release strengthens VergeOS's data protection features, which are a core part of the platform, giving IT teams more control over replication and recovery while also boosting overall system performance.

The details

Key improvements in VergeOS 26.1 include faster site-to-site replication for better business continuity, partial snapshots with tag-based control for more efficient disaster recovery, and N+2 redundancy (RF3) for maximum data availability. The release also delivers a 4x improvement in disk repair performance and other storage and system performance gains.

  • VergeOS 26.1 is available immediately to all VergeOS customers.
  • VergeIO is hosting a webinar on Wednesday, March 4, 2026 at 1:00 pm ET to discuss the new release.

These are the capabilities that separate a true private cloud operating system from a hypervisor with add-ons.”
