From colocation to cloud under your brand
Stop competing on rack price alone. Transform your datacenter into a full-service cloud provider with self-service portals, automated provisioning, and usage-based billing — all under your own brand.
Challenges DC operators face today
Colocation is a race to the bottom. The providers that grow are the ones that move up the stack — from racks to managed cloud services.
Commoditized Colo Pricing
Rack space and power are becoming commodity services. Customers shop on price alone, margins keep shrinking, and differentiation is nearly impossible when you are selling the same thing as every other DC.
Customers Want Managed Services
Your colo customers are asking for VPS, managed databases, and Kubernetes — but building that stack from scratch takes years of engineering and millions in investment.
No Self-Service Portal
Customers still email or call to request new servers. Manual provisioning means slow delivery, high ops cost, and a terrible customer experience compared to hyperscaler alternatives.
Manual Provisioning
Every new VM requires manual steps — create instance, configure networking, set up DNS, generate credentials, send to customer. What should take 90 seconds takes 90 minutes.
How PLATFORMA helps
The complete cloud business layer for datacenter operators. Turn racks and power into self-service cloud revenue.
Self-Service Customer Portal
Give your customers an AWS-like experience. They browse your catalog, configure resources, and deploy — all through a branded portal. No tickets, no waiting, no manual intervention.
Automated VM Lifecycle
From creation to deletion, every VM lifecycle event is automated. Provisioning, resizing, snapshots, backups, and deprovisioning — all triggered by customer actions or API calls.
Usage-Based Billing
Flexible pricing models — flat rate, per-hour, per-GB, tiered, and volume discounts. Automated metering, invoicing, and payment collection through Stripe integration.
Multi-Tenant Isolation
Complete isolation between customers at every layer. Network segmentation, storage isolation, separate API contexts, and row-level security. No data leaks, ever.
Resource Analytics
Real-time visibility into resource utilization per customer, per rack, per service. Identify upsell opportunities, capacity bottlenecks, and revenue optimization.
Product Catalog Engine
Define and launch new products in minutes. VPS tiers, managed databases, Kubernetes clusters — each with custom specs, pricing, and provisioning workflows.
Real-world scenarios
How datacenter operators are using PLATFORMA to move beyond colocation and sell high-margin cloud services.
Colo Provider Adds VPS Tier
A colocation provider with 500 racks adds a VPS product line. Existing colo customers get a migration path to managed services while new customers come for the self-service experience — 3x revenue per rack within 12 months.
Hosting Company Launches Kubernetes
A traditional hosting company adds Kubernetes-as-a-Service to its portfolio. Developer teams get isolated namespaces with resource quotas, RBAC, and monitoring — all self-service through the branded portal.
DC Owner Sells Managed Databases
A datacenter owner bundles managed PostgreSQL and Redis with existing VPS offerings. Customers get one-click database provisioning with automated backups — increasing ARPU by 45% across the customer base.

Your racks. Your power. Your brand. Our platform turns your datacenter into a cloud business in weeks, not years.
Common Questions
The platform runs on standard x86 server hardware. Minimum recommended: 3 compute nodes (32+ cores, 128GB+ RAM, NVMe storage each), 3 control nodes, and network infrastructure supporting VLANs. Most datacenter operators already have compatible hardware — we assess your existing inventory during the planning phase.
We support gradual migration. Run your existing stack and PLATFORMA in parallel during transition. Existing VMs can be imported via Glance image upload, customer accounts can be bulk-imported via API, and we provide tools for data migration. Most operators complete migration within 4-6 weeks without customer-facing downtime.
Extremely flexible. The platform supports flat-rate, per-hour, per-GB, tiered, volume-based, and custom pricing models. You can define different pricing for different customer segments, offer promotional rates, and create bundled packages. Pricing changes are instant — no code changes required.
We offer tiered support: Standard (business hours, 4h response), Professional (24/7, 1h response), and Enterprise (24/7, 15min response with dedicated engineer). All tiers include platform updates, security patches, and access to our engineering team for custom integration support.
