What sets us apart from other cloud providers

100% Green power

Since 2020, all ScaleUp data centers have been running on certified green electricity from partly regional, renewable energies (excluding nuclear power), most data center sites since 2012.

Refurbished Hardware

ScaleUp is switching to refurbished hardware wherever possible. In 2020, the share was 40 percent, and in 2021 it was already over 60 percent. We are thus saving around 42% emissions for IT hardware.

Open Infrastructure

There is no vendor lock-in. You can freely choose your cloud providers and switch at any time. You also get full API access and are free to choose the operating system for your environment.

DSGVO compliant

Keep full control over your business critical data. The ScaleUp Open Cloud is hosted 100 % in Germany and complies with strict European data protection standards (DSGVO).

Transparency

We clearly and understandably communicate our SLA, prices, and our sustainability goals and measures for climate-friendly hosting.

Personal support

In the event of an emergency, and even on weekdays, you will always have a dedicated and experienced system administrator to help you with any problems or questions you may have.

What is part of the standard configuration?

You get a fully managed Kubernetes cluster (managed cluster) based on Docker and OpenStack with your own admin access. This allows you to configure and use your Kubernetes cluster according to your needs (e.g. install additional add-ons).

Features

  • 100% Kubernetes Open Source Standard
  • Highly available Control Plane (3x Master/ Etcd nodes), Multiple Worker Nodes
  • End-to-end encryption between Kubernetes components
  • Calico or Weave Networking (enables Network Policies)
  • Persistent volumes (HDDs, SSDs)

Installed add-ons

Particularly safe

Rely on the highest security standards. Hosting in Germany also ensures compliance with the strict European data protection guidelines.

Secure Settings icon

Secure Control Plane

Our clusters are operated with a fail-safe control plane consisting of 3 master and etcd nodes as well as several worker nodes. In case of a node failure or a planned downtime (e.g. during an upgrade) your cluster always remains fully functional. 

Layer icon

Redundant data mirroring

The data of your applications and databases are securely stored by our multiple redundant storage solution based on Ceph (at least 3x redundant storage via SSDS and Automatic Volume Provisioning via K8s).

Certificate icon

ISO/IEC 27001 Certified

All clusters are managed and monitored in-house by us in our own state-of-the-art data centres in Germany. We and our cloud data centers are certified to the stringent ISO 27001 standard and also meet the Tier 3 standard.
