VMware Cloud Foundation Integrations

Stackscale’s Private Cloud is a hybrid solution between the traditional environment, robust and secure, and Public Cloud services, functional, flexible and scalable. In combination with our oversized network, our state-of-the-art data centers in Europe and our 24/7 specialized technical support team, our private cloud environments offer great performance, availability and security. We can consolidate two full racks housing networking gear and servers in just two nodes using network storage, reducing power usage by up to 95%. Designing a private cloud environment meant to be run at Stackscale is an easy task, as there are by far less variables to play with. Important design parameters are RAM and persistent storage size. IOPS, bandwidth and CPU requirements are less critical, since these are prevented from becoming a bottleneck in most scenarios. Our bare-metal servers are fully configurable and offer a level of control that matches in-house solutions.
