CloudSigma build an Ampere Compute fabric (ACF) that serve next-gen cloud services like S3 Caching, Fast S3, KVM ARM Virtualization/Cloud Native Applications and an Next-Gen Data fabric for IoT platform, Intelligent SaaS and real-time BI applications.
Customer Profile
Built for sustainable cloud computing, Ampere Computing’s Cloud Native Processors
feature a single-threaded, multiple core design that’s scalable, powerful, and efficient.
CloudSigma Ampere Compute Fabric (CS ACF) is the foundation for delivering next-gen cloud services for modern cloud-native application.
CloudSigma Ampere Compute Fabric (CS ACF) is a pool of ARM-based compute that can be shared and balance across the services.
CloudSigma Ampere Compute Fabric (CS ACF) benefits are:
– low CAPEX and OPEX which drive a low cost of delivery and increase profitability
– limited upfront investment by starting small and grow on-demand
– fully integration into CloudSigma platform for IAM/SSO, Monitoring/Metering and Billing/Invoicing
– fully integrated with the CloudSigma network topology for data transfer monetization, QoS, multi-tenancy and security
Organization
CloudSigma offers a unique fully managed cloud solution 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 demand while keeping their cost of delivery low. They are also committed on their Corporate Social Responsibility by reducing their environmental footprint.
Solution
CloudSigma extends its Cloud Service Catalog with disruptive offering like S3 Caching lowering cost of delivery and literally remove cost of AWS traffic and API calls. These new services will be based on a shared and scalable compute fabric based on Ampere and HPE RL300 that increase performance by 3 and reduce carbon footprint by 3.
CloudSigma Ampere 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”.
Result
Partners will be able to sell new disrupting cloud services while keeping a low cost of delivery, a high profitability and reducing their Carbon footprint.
End-Customers benefits are:
– S3 caching by removing “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 platform, Intelligent SaaS or RT BI application.
S3 Caching – Why
AWS S3 is the reference for Object Storage but customers often forget about hidden cost and get surprised when it’s time to pay.
CloudSigma introduce S3 Caching to offload these hidden costs and reduce the bill but also increase performance by having the data locally.
Here’s an example with a 10TB AWS S3 bucket where the consumer will pay 1192 USD monthly.
With S3 caching, the consumer will be able to save up to 62% by offloading API calls and data transfer.
Solution
The CloudSigma solution is composed of 2 layers:
– The first layer is the CloudSigma Ampere Compute Fabric (ACF) and it correspond to the “hardware layer”. It provides a pool of compute ressources consumed by the service layer.
– The second layer is the “service layer” where sits the S3 caching and other services.
S3 Caching is exposed via our interfaces (WebApp UI, API). CloudSigma where the consumer will be able to manage the service.
S3 Caching is also fully integrated and benefits from the core CloudSigma functionalities like IAM/SSO,
metering/monitoring and billing/invoicing, scale for cloud native, mission critical workloads.
Conclusion
CloudSigma Ampere Compute Fabric is a unique fabric design to serve next-generation workload while keeping low cost of delivery 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.
