Redundant infrastructure

OpenStack is software defined, but the hardware and the setup is what mostly defines performance, redundance and stability. Within our infrastructure, we use powerful Dell EMC PowerEdge servers, known for their reliability and performance. 

Redundance is built into all the layers of our infrastructure. Our platfom is spread out across three state of the art, self-sufficient datacenters. Between the datacenters, our connectivity capacity is extensive (120 Gbps). Apart from that, within each datacentre we have a software solution for storage capacity which allows the simultaneous storage of 3 copies of your data, spread out over three different racks.


Programmable infrastructure

Public Cloud is easily managed through the userfriendly Horizon dashboard. For more advanced users, the OpenStack API is available via command line, which allows you to preprogram actions such as automatic up- and downscaling of instances or the frequency of your snapshots. OpenStack is also easily combined with Infrastructure-as-Code tools such as Terraform. 

No vendor lock-in

With OpenStack, you have the freedom to choose your own cloud deployment strategy. Enjoy transparent and well-documented automation options, without getting stuck in a vendor lock-in. 

Infrastructure-as-Code

OpenStack allows you to use the DevOps methods and open source tools you already have in daily rotation. Think Infrastructure-as-Code applications, such as Terraform, that allow you to deliver a deployment quickly and repeatedly. 

Active opensource community

OpenStack is one of the most active opensource projects in the world and is being used by a number of major mission critical infrastructures, such as NASA. If you have any questions, there is a good chance the OpenStack Community has the answer for you.
