Elastx Cloud Platform

Elastx Cloud Platform (ECP) is designed for business-critical services and sensitive data. Leveraging our technical expertise and over a decade of experience in critical business operations empowers your company to navigate even the most demanding applications. The Elastx Cloud Platform spans three geographically separated data centers, offering the potential for high availability and disaster protection for your data. Elastx has been ISO 27001 certified since 2015 and is currently certified for 27017, 27018, and 14001.

Compute

We provide three distinct compute services. OpenStack IaaS serves as our core infrastructure service and forms the foundation for Kubernetes CaaS and DBaaS. It provides a virtual data center where you can configure networks, instances, and storage according to your specific needs. All resources are billed on an hourly basis

OpenStack IaaS spans three data centers. When initiating a resource, you can effortlessly select the preferred data center. This platform offers extensive capabilities for running complex and demanding applications. You are encouraged to utilize Infrastructure as Code for efficient configuration management.

Kubernetes CaaS is our container management service, tailored for Cloud Native enthusiasts. It is a fully managed service that, like OpenStack IaaS, encompasses three data centers. Designed to meet high availability standards for demanding applications, it allows the utilization of various OpenStack IaaS instances, storage, and networking functions.

Virtuozzo PaaS is the user-friendly platform that simplifies the onboarding process. Our unique business model ensures charges only for the resources actively utilized. You can select the application type and desired database, execute a straightforward deployment, and swiftly initiate operations. Choose your preferred data center for running your app and establish redundancy as needed. This serves as our entry-level solution, suitable for those with simpler requirements yet desiring a robust platform.

Availability

The Elastx platform extends across three geographically distinct data centers, referred to as Availability Zones (AZ), situated up to 20 km apart. This structure facilitates the development of a platform for highly available and disaster-resistant applications. Maintaining three AZs is crucial, requiring an odd number and more than one for constructing clusters with persistent data. For many, a 10-mile (16km) distance is an approved measure for disaster insurance. All our services can operate in a redundant and disaster-resistant manner. Elastx Kubernetes CaaS consistently spans all three AZs, while you can select the desired level of redundancy for our databases (DBaaS) and Virtuozzo PaaS.

Security

Elastx is dedicated to providing optimal conditions and tools for secure operations. Safety is paramount, but it should not complicate daily work; building security that doesn't interfere with everyday activities is an art. Some examples of security features in the platform include:

  • All three types of storage offered by Elastx (Ephemeral, Volume, and Object storage) are encrypted (Encrypted At Rest).
  • Communication between our data centers (AZ) is encrypted.
  • We maintain an HSM cluster for managing secrets via OpenStack Barbican.
  • Our Threat protection blocks known malicious sources from reaching the platform.
  • Inline L3/L4 DDoS protection covers the entire platform.
  • Our data centers are Tier 3 and staffed 24x7.
  • All our staff are Swedish citizens who have undergone background checks.

AI

The trend of building applications with AI support is on the rise. Effectively doing so requires GPUs and the ability to handle large amounts of data swiftly and efficiently. In the Elastx platform, GPUs are available in both our OpenStack IaaS and Kubernetes CaaS, and our powerful storage can be utilized for both these services and our DBaaS.

Connectivity

Elastx believes in hybrid and multi-cloud, with connectivity being a key to success. As a local Cloud Service Provider, we've developed cost-effective and powerful capabilities to connect other data centers and cloud platforms with Elastx. We offer services such as Cloud VPN, Cloud Connect and Cloud Exchange.

Sustainability

Elastx maintains a robust commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility. Our infrastructure is optimized for energy efficiency and operates on renewable energy. By choosing Elastx as your database service, you contribute to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly IT infrastructure. We also shoulder significant social responsibility by paying taxes where we operate, sponsoring projects with substantial social benefits, and avoiding cooperation with industries that we don't consider to contribute positively to society.

Regulatory Compliance

Choosing a Swedish CSP like Elastx ensures that your data and business information are stored and handled in compliance with Swedish and European legislation. This is especially critical in light of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other regulations governing the handling of personal data.

Support

Elastx provides high-quality and competent support. Our team of experts is always available to assist with any questions or problems that may arise. This means you can receive fast and reliable help when you need it most. Our services always include 24x7 support. We can also assist on a consulting basis and monitor your application with our Application Monitoring service if you don't have 24x7 management yourself.

Scalability

Elastx offers scalable solutions that can be adapted to your company's needs. Whether you need to increase capacity to meet rapidly growing data volumes or reduce resources during quieter periods, we can help you scale efficiently.

No Technical or Commercial Lock-In

The Elastx Cloud Platform is distinctive in having no technical or commercial lock-in. We charge by the hour for our services, based on open-source code and open standards. This provides you, as a customer, with flexibility and freedom to adapt your solutions as needed, avoiding being tied to a specific supplier.
