FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about IaaS cloud design and build services

IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service) Cloud Design and Build involves the complete planning, architecture, and implementation of cloud infrastructure. This includes designing compute, storage, and network resources that can be provisioned on-demand, enabling organizations to build scalable private or public cloud environments.

The timeline depends on the complexity and scale of your requirements. A basic private cloud can be deployed in 4-6 weeks, while larger enterprise deployments with complex networking and storage requirements typically take 8-12 weeks. Our phased approach ensures quality delivery at each stage.

Apache CloudStack supports multiple hypervisors including KVM (recommended for new deployments), VMware vSphere, XCP-ng, and Citrix Hypervisor. This flexibility allows you to choose based on your existing investments, licensing preferences, and technical requirements.

Yes, capacity planning is a critical part of our design process. We analyze your workload requirements, growth projections, and performance needs to determine optimal compute density, storage architecture, and network design. We also plan for over-provisioning scenarios to ensure consistent performance.

Absolutely. We provide comprehensive as-built documentation, operational runbooks, and dedicated knowledge transfer sessions. Our goal is to ensure your in-house team can effectively manage and support your cloud infrastructure from day one.

We work with various storage solutions including Ceph (for software-defined storage), NetApp, Pure Storage, Dell EMC, and NFS/iSCSI-based solutions. The recommendation depends on your performance requirements, budget, and existing infrastructure investments.
