Cloud Core 2026: Benefits, Features & Pricing

In addition to the inherent problems of high costs from public clouds, it is believed that the consolidation of infrastructure and software into a tiny set of public cloud providers is dangerous on numerous levels. A balancing force of clouds, operated by smaller companies, smaller governments, and even individuals, is critical to the long-term health of IT.

OpenMetal's IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) platform provides an open-source alternative to conventional public and private clouds. It delivers a private cloud, built on OpenStack + Ceph, on demand, in less than one minute, combining private cloud benefits with the convenience of public cloud use.

OpenStack, while powerful, has always been prohibitively complex to set up and manage. By allowing small teams and even individuals to deploy their own private OpenStack cloud in less than a minute, OpenMetal is making open source infrastructure more accessible to everyone.
