A cloud platform is a comprehensive solution for designing, deploying, and maintaining private, public, and hybrid cloud infrastructures. Our platform provides flexibility and scalability, allowing customers to quickly adapt IT resources to any business task: from development and testing to critical production services.

Main features and functionality

• Architecture design
Analysis of the current IT landscape and business requirements.
Target architecture development (private/public/hybrid).
Development of network topology, security and redundancy.

• Infrastructure deployment
Automated creation of Kubernetes clusters and Docker environments.
Integration with OpenStack for private cloud and with public providers (AWS, Azure, GCP).
Configuring network services (VPN, VPC, Load Balancer, DNS).

• Configuration management and orchestration
Infrastructure as code with Terraform and Ansible.
Managing secrets and configurations.

• CI/CD pipelines
Building an end-to-end pipeline from commit to production deployment.
Integration with GitLab CI, Jenkins, GitHub Actions.

• Monitoring and logging
Implementation of Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/EFK stack.
Setting up alerts and dashboards using SLA.

• Maintenance and support
Regular updates and patch management.
Backup, Disaster recovery (DR).
24/7 technical support and SLA control.

Technologies used

• Containerization and orchestration: Docker, Kubernetes, Helm.
• Private cloud: OpenStack, KVM, Ceph.
