CloudSigma builds an CloudSigma Ampere-based Compute Fabric that serves next-gen cloud services like S3 Caching, Fast S3, KVM ARM Virtualization/Cloud Native Applications, and a Next-Gen Data fabric for IoT platforms, Intelligent SaaS and real-time BI applications 

SNAPSHOT 

Organization

CloudSigma offers unique fully managed cloud solutions based on a revenue-sharing business model. IT service providers around the globe are partnering with CloudSigma to derisk and accelerate their cloud strategies.

Challenge

CloudSigma partners need to lower their OPEX and CAPEX but also need to bring innovation to the cloud market while keeping their cost of delivery low. Partners are also committed to their Corporate Social Responsibility by reducing their environmental footprint.

Solution

CloudSigma extends its Cloud Service Catalog with disruptive offerings like S3 Caching, thereby lowering the cost of delivery and removing the cost of AWS traffic and API calls. These new services will be based on a shared and scalable compute fabric powered by Ampere and the HPE Proliant RL300 Gen 11 that increases performance by 3x and reduces carbon footprint by a third.
CloudSigma Ampere-based Compute Fabric will also support other services like “Fast S3 for AI/ML latency-sensitive apps”, “KVM ARM for virtualization and cloud-native application” and “Cloud Native Data fabric for Transactional processing, Real-time BI analytics or ML Predictive analysis workload”.

Results

Partners will be able to sell new disrupting cloud services while keeping cost of delivery low, increasing profitability, and reducing their Carbon footprint. 
End-Customers benefits:
– S3 caching removes the “hidden” cost of AWS S3 data transfer and API calls
– Fast S3 based on NVMe storage for low latency-sensitive applications
– Ampere Compute Zone for Arm-based workload and cloud-native application (Kubernetes)
– Turnkey Cloud-Native Data Fabric for building IoT platforms, Intelligent SaaS, or RT BI application.

CloudSigma Ampere-based Compute Fabric is the foundation for delivering next-gen cloud services for modern cloud-native applications. 
CloudSigma Ampere-based Compute Fabric is a pool of Ampere-based Arm64 compute, that can be shared and balanced across multiple services.

CloudSigma Ampere-based Compute Fabric benefits:
– Reduced CAPEX and OPEX which drives a lower cost of delivery and increased profitability as shown in the below example
– Limited upfront investment  where businesses can start small and grow on demand
– Full integration into the CloudSigma platform for IAM/SSO, Monitoring/Metering and Billing/Invoicing
– Full integration with the CloudSigma network topology for data transfer monetization, QoS, multi-tenancy and security

S3 CACHING EXAMPLE – WHY

table 2

In Amazon Web Services (AWS) S3 is the reference for Object Storage. Customers may not fully understand all the hidden costs and may be surprised or not even aware when receiving their bill.  
CloudSigma introduces S3 Caching to offload these hidden costs and reduce the bill but also increase performance by storing the data locally. 
Here’s an example with a 10TB AWS S3 bucket where the consumer bill is 1,192 USD monthly.

With CloudSigma S3 caching, the consumer will be able to achieve significant savings, up to 62%,  by offloading API calls and data transfers. In the below example, the customer achieves a 62% monthly savings.

SOLUTION

The CloudSigma solution is composed of 2 layers:
– The first layer is the CloudSigma Ampere-based Compute Fabric which in essence is the “hardware layer”. This  provides a pool of compute resources consumed by the service layer. As the graphic shows below, with Ampere® Altra® processors and HPE ProLiant RL300 servers, CloudSigma provides more computing available to partners in fully populated racks with less energy consumption and less space. These savings are provided to the customer.

– The second layer is the “service layer” where you can find S3 caching and other services. 
S3 Caching is exposed via CloudSigma’s interfaces (WebApp UI, API) providing end users the ability to manage the service in multiple ways.



S3 Caching is also fully integrated into CloudSigma’s services and benefits from the core CloudSigma functionalities like IAM/SSO, metering/monitoring, and billing/invoicing.

CONCLUSION

CloudSigma Ampere-based Compute Fabric is a unique cloud platform  designed to serve next-generation workloads  with high performance while keeping computer costs low  and achieving sustainability goals. 
CloudSigma S3 Caching is the first of a long series of next-generation services designed to increase performance with a low cost of delivery.
