What customers say
“Now, we have complete control over our hardware, and this autonomy allows us to fine-tune our servers to meet our specific needs, optimising performance and efficiency. We can customise every aspect of our infrastructure, from the operating system and network architecture to the type and amount of storage used.”
“We wanted one service provider for the whole on-premise cloud consisting not only of Kubernetes but also the Ceph storage solution, PostgreSQL and Kafka. These were all the services that were needed and with this we could have one joined-up approach”
"It’s no good having just half of the stack automated. From the DNS name to the IP network, firewall, the virtual machines, and the bare metal servers in the data centre, you need orchestration on every layer and the tools need to communicate with each other.
That’s what Canonical’s solutions enable."
"We needed a cloud solution that was stable, reliable and performant. Canonical allowed us to do this by helping to design and deploy our cloud - and they helped us do this quickly."
