IaaS — Infrastructure as a Service
Provision the compute, storage and network resources you need quickly and flexibly, without any hardware investment. As much capacity as you need, at a predictable monthly cost.
IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) lets you consume the server, storage, network and virtualisation layers as a service instead of buying physical hardware. As a provider that operates its own cloud platform, Cloud Expert manages these resources end to end.
You can scale resources up or down quickly and flexibly, and plan for a predictable monthly cost. The operational burden of physical infrastructure — maintenance, patching, capacity planning — stays with the Cloud Expert operations team.
What stands out
Flexible Scaling
Increase or decrease CPU, RAM, storage and network resources quickly and flexibly according to workload.
Infrastructure Located in Türkiye
Your data is hosted in data centres in Türkiye, aligned with data sovereignty requirements.
Managed Operations
Operation of the hypervisor, storage and network layers is included in the IaaS service and handled by Cloud Expert. In-guest operations (operating system and above) are provided optionally through a ClexCare service level.
High Availability
Redundant platform architecture and virtualization-layer HA capabilities for high availability of critical workloads.
Snapshot Capabilities
Snapshot capabilities are available for virtual machines. Long-term data protection, retention policies and restore processes are provided under Cloud Expert BaaS.
Predictable Cost
Predictable monthly billing with no surprise costs.
Architecture and process
We bring your IaaS environment live through a structured process that starts with a needs analysis.
Needs Analysis
We identify your workloads and your performance and availability requirements.
Sizing and Design
We design the right resource profile and network topology.
Deployment
Resources are provisioned on our platform and network and security policies are applied.
Monitoring and Optimisation
We provide 24/7 monitoring, capacity management and continuous optimisation.
When to choose it
Application Hosting
Run your enterprise applications on flexible, scalable infrastructure.
Test and Development Environments
Spin up temporary environments quickly and shut them down when you are done.
Data Centre Exit
Move the physical data centre burden to the cloud and turn CAPEX into OPEX.
Seasonal Capacity
Add resources during peak periods and scale back afterwards.
Why Cloud Expert?
We are a provider operating our own cloud platform — not a reseller.
When needed, operations can be extended down to the in-guest layer through the ClexCare managed service model.
