Our private cloud platform is built on OpenStack and Ceph, giving customers full access to a proven, open source cloud stack without the overhead of managing it themselves. That means more control, more transparency, and a predictable cost structure that public cloud pricing rarely offers at scale. For organizations that need dedicated infrastructure without the operational burden, we offer fully hosted bare metal servers that can run standalone or integrate directly with an OpenMetal private cloud. Deployment is fast, hardware is dedicated, and pricing is fixed so you can focus on the work, not the bill. 41 Ratings Visit Website Google Compute Engine Compute Engine is Google's infrastructure as a service (IaaS) platform for organizations to create and run cloud-based virtual machines. Computing infrastructure in predefined or custom machine sizes to accelerate your cloud transformation. General purpose (E2, N1, N2, N2D) machines provide a good balance of price and performance. Compute optimized (C2) machines offer high-end vCPU performance for compute-intensive workloads. Memory optimized (M2) machines offer the highest memory and are great for in-memory databases. Accelerator optimized (A2) machines are based on the A100 GPU, for very demanding applications. Integrate Compute with other Google Cloud services such as AI/ML and data analytics. Make reservations to help ensure your applications have the capacity they need as they scale. Save money just for running Compute with sustained-use discounts, and achieve greater savings when you use committed-use discounts. 1,169 Ratings Visit Website InMotion Hosting InMotion Hosting is a performance-first infrastructure provider trusted by agencies, digital teams, and growing businesses since 2001.

It is fully compatible with the S3 API standard, allowing developers and IT teams to manage buckets and objects using existing S3 clients and tools while integrating easily into cloud-native applications and infrastructures. It enables organizations to store virtually unlimited volumes of static or backup data without the need to provision or manage traditional storage volumes. It is built for reliability and high availability, using redundant storage across multiple nodes so data remains accessible and protected even if infrastructure failures occur. It is particularly well-suited for storing backups, archives, and disaster recovery snapshots, as well as handling large datasets used in analytics, machine learning, or digital content platforms. 45,199 Ratings Visit Website Dragonfly Dragonfly is a drop-in Redis replacement that cuts costs and boosts performance. Designed to fully utilize the power of modern cloud hardware and deliver on the data demands of modern applications, Dragonfly frees developers from the limits of traditional in-memory data stores. The power of modern cloud hardware can never be realized with legacy software. Dragonfly is optimized for modern cloud computing, delivering 25x more throughput and 12x lower snapshotting latency when compared to legacy in-memory data stores like Redis, making it easy to deliver the real-time experience your customers expect. Scaling Redis workloads is expensive due to their inefficient, single-threaded model. Dragonfly is far more compute and memory efficient, resulting in up to 80% lower infrastructure costs. Dragonfly scales vertically first, only requiring clustering at an extremely high scale. This results in a far simpler operational model and a more reliable system. 16 Ratings Visit Website ScalaHosting • Simple website management with our own SPanel control panel - a free cPanel/WHM alternative • Free and effortless migration - we will migrate all your websites and mailboxes at no additional cost and without any downtime • Unconditional anytime money-back guarantee - just to show you how certain we are about the quality of our services • 24/7/365 "Ask anything" expert support you can rely on - get help whenever you need it via live chat (instant) or by ticket (15 min. response time) • We always use the latest hardware to make your websites ultrafast - with All-NVMe storage and the latest Intel Xeon Gold 6444Y processors across all our cloud clusters, you can expect nothing but lightning-fast website performance • Ecommerce-ready Managed Cloud hosting - an all-in-one solution with all the features and capabilities you need to run and grow your business—completely free of charge • Joomla exclusive VPS provider - endorsed by Joomla's founder, Brian Teeman 2,389 Ratings Visit Website IONOS Cloud GPU Servers IONOS GPU Servers provide an accelerated computing infrastructure designed to handle workloads that require significantly more processing power than traditional CPU-based systems.
