VergeIO, the creator of VergeOS, the industry's first private cloud operating system, has announced the release of VergeOS 26.1. The update extends the platform's built-in data protection capabilities with granular disaster recovery controls, faster site-to-site replication, and significant storage performance gains.

Why it matters

VergeOS is designed to consolidate compute, storage, networking, and data protection into a single software platform, replacing legacy multi-vendor infrastructure stacks. 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.”
