The Digital Transformation Agency is seeking information on virtualisation platform options to help Australian Government agencies sustain or optimise existing environments, operate different platforms together, or transition to replacement or modernised environments across on‑premises, public cloud and hybrid deployments, including approaches that preserve choice, portability and future flexibility. Respondents should explain what the market can deliver, how options could be implemented, the full cost of options over time, security and sovereignty considerations, workforce impacts, purchasing options, integration with existing environments, dependencies created or reduced, and realistic transition timeframes to inform DTA market analysis and any future procurement decisions.
