Services

Twelve things we do to a CloudStack estate.

Open resource · no signup

Audit your own environment first.

A seven-area health audit you can run yourself, using an AI assistant to read the API output. Check, improve, re-check — and a finding is not closed until the re-check comes back clean.

CHECK IMPROVE RE-CHECK re-check must return empty
  1. 01 Zones, pods & clusters
  2. 02 Hosts & hypervisors
  3. 03 Storage pools
  4. 04 Virtual machines
  5. 05 Networks, VLANs & IP pools
  6. 06 System VMs — SSVM & CPVM
  7. 07 Capacity & global settings

Each area gives you the API call to run, a prompt to analyse the output, the improvements to make, and the re-check that must come back empty. Use a read-only account, and strip hostnames and public IPs before pasting anything into a chat window.

Built to be integrated

The automation layer is in the box.

Not in the next licence tier, not in a separately-licensed automation suite, not behind a renewal conversation.

ITSM-driven provisioning

A service request creates the instance and writes back to the CMDB.

Ephemeral environments

Per merge request, built and destroyed automatically via Terraform.

Golden images as code

Packer and Ansible, rebuilt on patch cycle rather than by hand.

Usage into ERP and billing

Quota and usage APIs feeding chargeback into finance systems.

Identity mapping

LDAP, Active Directory and SAML onto CloudStack domains and accounts.

Event-driven automation

Webhooks triggering downstream systems on infrastructure events.

External orchestration

Extensions Framework for systems CloudStack does not natively manage.

Kubernetes

Managed clusters on your own hardware via CloudStack Kubernetes Service.

When a business system needs to talk to your infrastructure, is that a development task or a procurement task? On CloudStack it is a development task — and we do that development.

Who we work with

Three kinds of estate.

Leaving another platform

Estates moving off vSphere, Citrix Hypervisor, oVirt, RHV or Hyper-V — for licensing, for an end-of-life date, or because the platform outgrew the team.

Data centres & providers

Operators running multi-tenant infrastructure who need a control plane they own.

SMEs & SaaS platforms

Teams running their own platform where steady load is priced inefficiently on hyperscale.

Describe the estate and the problem. We will tell you what it takes — and what it does not.
