gridscale

  • Intuitive Control Panel and API

    Administrators use a drag-and-drop interface to deploy VMs or services quickly, reducing setup time from hours to minutes. For developers, a RESTful API enables scripting and integration. Real-time dashboards show consumption and costs, with per-minute billing avoiding overprovisioning. This setup suits teams without dedicated cloud experts.

  • Scalable Compute and Storage Options

    Core offerings include flexible VMs for general workloads, NVMe-based Rocket Storage for speed, and S3 object storage for unstructured data. GPU instances support AI/ML tasks. Managed services cover Kubernetes clusters, PostgreSQL/MySQL databases, and load balancers, with auto-scaling and backups included. Resources provision in seconds across multiple availability zones.

  • Hybrid Core Concierge for HCI

    This fully managed tool automates datacenter operations on hyperconverged infrastructure. Users deploy gridscale's hardware on-site or in chosen locations, gaining public cloud features privately. Modules handle account management, branding, and automation. Onboarding involves hardware procurement, setup, and testing, ensuring seamless cloud exit strategies.

UpCloud

  • MaxIOPS Block Storage

    UpCloud's proprietary storage technology delivers up to 100,000 IOPS on read/write operations, verified in benchmarks like those from Cloud Spectator. This enables databases and high-traffic apps to run smoothly without bottlenecks. Storage attaches directly to servers, with snapshots for quick backups. Users benefit from consistent performance across all plans, unlike tiered systems elsewhere.

  • Global Data Centers and Networking

    Choose from 13 locations: eight in Europe (Helsinki, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, London, Madrid, Warsaw, Stockholm, Copenhagen), plus Chicago, New York, San Jose, Singapore, and Sydney. Networking includes free load balancers, VPN gateways, and NAT for private connectivity. No charges apply for ingress or egress traffic, reducing bills for data-heavy workloads.

  • Managed Services and Essentials Package

    Deploy managed PostgreSQL, MySQL, Valkey, or OpenSearch databases with automated scaling and updates. Managed Kubernetes control planes handle etcd and upgrades. The free UpCloud Essentials package bundles daily backups, floating IPs, and basic firewalls at no added cost. API access supports automation for CI/CD pipelines.
