Modular Design
Each layer operates independently, enabling flexibility and easier upgrades.
Why Warren
Built for independence and longevity
Warren’s platform is built on modern architectural principles — modular and decoupled, open-source at its core, and hardware‑agnostic by design. This approach ensures flexibility as technologies evolve, while maintaining the reliability and scalability service providers demand.
Open‑Source Foundation
All critical components are based on proven enterprise open‑source technologies, heavily extended by Warren.
Hardware‑Agnostic
Runs across diverse infrastructures — from single clusters to global federations.

INFRASTRUCTURE DESIGN
Flexible deployment architectures
Tailored to your operating model. Warren supports multiple infrastructure approaches to match your existing setup and long-term goals.
Disaggregated Infrastructure (DI)
For data centers and hosters building scalable public or private clouds with independently managed control, compute and storage layers — unified through Warren’s control and monitoring planes. This architecture enables flexibility in scaling, maintenance, and hardware evolution across diverse environments.
Hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI)
For enterprises or MSPs consolidating existing workloads into a unified platform that simplifies hardware management and user experience. This approach is best suited for predictable workloads and combines control, compute and storage within the same nodes, offering an efficient transition from legacy environments.
