Vultr, the world’s largest privately held cloud computing platform, has officially announced the launch of its industry cloud solution called Vultr Industry, which is designed to conceive industry-vertical, cutting-edge cloud computing solutions that meet specific industry needs and regulatory requirements across telecommunications retail, manufacturing, healthcare, media, and beyond. According to certain reports, the solution in question banks upon Vultr’s global cloud infrastructure spanning six continents and 32 cloud data center locations, including Vultr Cloud GPU accelerated by NVIDIA GPUs for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), and it does so to optimize specific industry sectors’ infrastructure, along with their operations, across the world. More on the same would reveal how Vultr Industry is actually the first independent global cloud computing platform to provide enterprises across core sectors a specialized and composable brand of cloud platforms. In practice, it also offers a cost-effective alternative to traditional infrastructure, as unlike traditional cloud platforms, Vultr’s composable infrastructure integrates end-to-end industry cloud capabilities with its core cloud services components. Talk about the solution on a slightly deeper level, they begin from the solution’s ability to work rather seamlessly alongside SaaS offerings, something it does through APIs and strategic cloud alliance partnerships. This makes it possible for businesses to efficiently deploy and manage various applications and offer accessibility, scalability, and reduced management overhead.
“While our customers come from a diverse range of industries, they all demand excellence when it comes to their cloud solutions. To achieve this, today’s CIOs and CTOs need scalable, reliable, and industry-specific cloud solutions to accelerate their digital and AI transformation,” said Kevin Cochrane, CMO of Vultr. “The launch of Vultr industry cloud provides the first global cloud alternative to dynamic allocation and high-performance cloud computing, GPUs, storage, and network resources to enhance operational efficiency and deliver continuous operations.”
The next element we have here is rooted the solution’s stance on working with PaaS offerings. You see, providing robust development and deployment cloud environment, as well as enabling developers to build, test, and deploy applications without managing the underlying infrastructure, Vultr integrates cloud computing with PaaS to offer specialized tools for streamlined app development, deployment, and multi-cloud flexibility. Then, there is the Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) aspect. At launch, Vultr’s IaaS offerings include scalable bare metal, Cloud GPU, virtual machines, storage solutions, networking services, containers, and database management, each one focused on delivering a flexible infrastructure for various workloads. Joining the mix are data fabrics that reveal their presence using the wider solution’s scalable cloud infrastructure. These data fabrics basically unify data management across diverse environments. Furthermore, thanks to services like compute instances, block storage, and managed databases, they enable seamless data integration and efficient governance.
Hold on, we still haven’t touched upon Vultr Industry’s marketplace-focused detail. This translates to how Vultr Marketplace features a wide array of pre-configured applications and services so to simplify the process of finding and deploying cloud solutions. Another detail we haven’t acknowledged is one concerned with compliance and security. To give you some context, Vultr offers robust security features and compliance tools that all ensure data protection and adherence to regional and industry-specific regulations. Rounding up highlights is an edge computing angle, where Vultr’s edge computing solutions bring computing power closer to the data source to reduce latency and enhance performance for real-time applications.
As for some specific applications, Vultr Industry can empower, for instance, the telecommunications sector in terms of delivering reliable, low-latency infrastructure to support network services and customer applications. Beyond that, the solution is well-equipped to help the manufacturing space prioritize integration with industrial IoT and real-time data processing for production optimization. The retail sector, on the other hand, can bank upon the same to focus on scalable, flexible infrastructure for the purpose of handling seasonal demand fluctuations, and improving upon customer experiences.
“Vultr industry cloud reaffirms our commitment to supporting enterprises, giving them the adaptability they need to cope with accelerating industry disruptions and unique requirements,” said Cochrane. “With tailored, industry-specific cloud capabilities, our customers can accelerate digital transformation and achieve differentiation faster than the competition.”
