Civo, the company reimagining cloud computing, has today announced its new private cloud service, FlexCore, delivering security, performance, and scalability in a straightforward, easily deployable package. The new service was launched during Civo’s cloud conference, Civo Navigate, in Berlin.
FlexCore is developed to bring the advanced functionality of a public cloud and ease of use familiar to Civo’s public cloud customers into a private cloud environment. The solution includes both hardware and software, pre-integrated for a seamless deployment experience. Users can have their private cloud up and running within minutes, with minimal setup required.
Key Features of FlexCore
- Comprehensive Cloud Services: FlexCore supports Kubernetes, Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), Database as a Service (DBaaS), and AI/ML applications, providing a versatile and powerful platform for all your cloud computing needs.
- Plug-and-Play Deployment: FlexCore offers an effortless setup. Simply power on the pre-integrated hardware, assign an IP address, and your private cloud is ready to go.
- Seamless Integration and Migration: FlexCore simplifies the transition to a private cloud with robust integration capabilities, ensuring compatibility with AWS, Azure, GCP, and easy migration from existing infrastructures, including VMware.
- High Availability and Resilience: Designed for enterprise-grade reliability, FlexCore handles hardware failures gracefully and ensures continuous uptime with automatic failover capabilities.
- Security by Design: FlexCore is built from the ground up with security in mind, offering a hardened, compliant solution for data sovereignty.
FlexCore is designed to meet the needs of enterprises that require a reliable, high-performance cloud environment while maintaining control over their data. CivoStack Enterprise provides the same features as FlexCore but is deployable on a user’s own hardware.
Civo research found that 48.7% of VMware customers are actively exploring alternative cloud providers, with many accustomed to the private solutions previously available on VMware. FlexCore provides a powerful and cloud-native alternative, offering robust features, high availability, extensive support and a streamlined migration process to ensure a seamless transition from VMware or other environments.
Mark Boost, CEO of Civo, said:
“Businesses are increasingly seeking solutions that allow them to retain control over their data while avoiding the vendor lock-in often associated with hyperscalers. FlexCore meets this demand head-on, offering an alternative to VMware that ensures our customers can maintain their sovereignty and flexibility, features that many VMware customers had easy access to before the Broadcom acquisition. Our mission with FlexCore is to provide a straightforward, powerful private cloud solution that empowers businesses to operate with confidence, control, and clarity."
