Kasm + Rancher Government
Modernizing Secure Workspaces for Government and Defense Missions.
Breaking Free from Legacy VDI Constraints with Web-Native Workspaces
Rancher Government Solutions (RGS) and Kasm Technologies have partnered to deliver something government agencies have needed for years: a container-native, Kubernetes-powered workspace platform that actually works. We have combined RGS’s Kubernetes expertise with Kasm’s web-native Workspaces to give government agencies a faster, more secure, cost-effective alternative that works anywhere—on-prem, hybrid, or multi-cloud.
Legacy VDI hold missions back with rigid infrastructure, budget-busting costs, and security gaps. Kasm Workspaces changes the game with web-native, containerized environments that users access directly through browsers without requiring specialized software. RGS’s Harvester Government delivers a hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) that eliminates proprietary hypervisor dependencies while supporting both x86 and arm64 architectures for maximum hardware flexibility.

Together, we are writing the new playbook on how government agencies deploy and manage virtual workspaces.
Kasm’s container-based architecture complements RGS’s Kubernetes management capabilities to deploy and operate secure workspaces across any environment. This tight integration lets agencies provision isolated desktop environments with strict access controls, maintaining a zero-trust posture across the entire system without requiring endpoint software installation or complicated network configurations.
Our combined solution automates workspace deployment and scales to meet changing demands. Whether you are operating in classified networks, air-gapped facilities, or across multiple clouds, the RGS-Kasm platform delivers the flexibility your mission needs while reducing infrastructure costs.
The Rancher Government - Kasm Partnership Delivers
Freedom from Vendor Lock-In
Eliminate reliance on proprietary hypervisors. Our open-source architecture integrates with your existing infrastructure, giving you complete control over your tech stack.
Workspace Deployment Anywhere
Deploy and scale workspaces across on-premises, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI). Built to support air-gapped networks and classified environments, guaranteeing mission continuity regardless of location.
Ironclad Security and Compliance
Zero-trust architecture with workload isolation and granular access controls at every level. DISA STIG-validated, FIPS-compliant design meets the strictest federal security requirements without compromise.
Higher Performance, Lower Costs
Dramatically cut TCO by eliminating hypervisor licensing fees. Optimize hardware resources with Kubernetes-native architecture and support for repurposed hardware across x86 and arm64 architectures.
"Government agencies can no longer afford to rely on legacy VDI platforms that are costly, complex, and vulnerable. Our partnership with Kasm Technologies provides a modern, cloud-native solution that delivers operational simplicity, zero-trust security, and true multi-cloud flexibility." Ryan Lewis, CEO of Rancher Government Solutions
