What is cloud computing?

The foundation of cloud computing is the concept of “as a service” solutions. This includes "Infrastructure-as-a-Service" (IaaS), "Platform-as-a-Service" (PaaS) and "Software-as-a-Service" (SaaS). The cloud is a web application, software and resource hosting service that works as follows:

On demand.

Cloud solutions are available almost instantaneously, often through an API or graphical interface. They are automatically activated. This way, the "on-demand" approach ensures great responsiveness in terms of implementation and use.

Granular billing

This is one of the other benefits of cloud computing. Only resources or services consumed are invoiced, often with hourly or gigabyte granularity. With this pay-as-you-go model, there is no need to provision or invest in dormant resources.

Hardware abstraction

The concept of the cloud is based around freeing user from their dependency on physical hardware. Cloud computing makes a clear distinction between the equipment used and the service delivered. Hardware is no longer as great a concern for end users as it may have been in the past.

Migrating to the cloud

OVHcloud’s Public Cloud is based on industry-standard technology, providing native compatibility between systems and making data imports and exports as efficient as possible.

Devops and continuous integration

A large number of tools are directly configurable for our Public Cloud, so you are able to use the entire devops ecosystem, such as Terraform and Ansible, while relying on OVHcloud resources for software factories (Jenkins, for example).

Artificial intelligence and data-driven business

To meet the growing demand for effective data manipulation and analysis, we offer machine learning, deep learning and big data solutions. Everything is made possible through scalable, dedicated resources and storage capacity.

Open-source is at the centre of our cloud computing platforms

What are the advantages of the cloud?

Flexibility and security

The cloud offers companies a high level of flexibility, so that they can meet their requirements in terms of storage, computing, and much more. Users no longer need to make costly investments at the start of a project, or create provisional medium- or long-term plans. You can adapt your infrastructure and billing to suit your needs. On top of scalable, secure infrastructures and new technologies like water-cooling in our datacentres, the OVHcloud cloud offers its users an hourly billing option, so you only pay for the resources you use. With the virtualisation of servers and resources, the infrastructure can be adapted to suit your needs. You can add and remove resources in real-time, in order to better respond to traffic spikes. By replicating the data and backups present on your infrastructures, the cloud ensures high availability for your data, even in the event of an outage.

Why use the cloud?

By combining hardware and software technologies, the cloud has given rise to a range of different service models.

Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS)

With IaaS, you rent a hardware-based infrastructure without any need to maintain the hardware itself, or its virtualisation layer. As a service provider, we take care of this for you. It is perfect if you want to fully administrate scalable IT services. It also gives you the option of being billed based on your usage, so that you only pay for the resources you use.

Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS)

PaaS solutions provide you with a ready-to-use platform on which you can install, configure and run your own applications. Your service provider manages the hardware, virtualisation layer, and operating system.

Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)

With SaaS, you can access your web and software applications from anywhere, anytime, with no limit to the number of users. With this cloud model, you won’t have to worry about the hardware, the software layer, or the setup of applications on the server. Need more resources? Your solution is scalable, and your subscription can be adapted to suit your requirements!
