Compute Engine (IaaS), a platform from Google that allows organizations to create and manage cloud-based virtual machines, is an infrastructure as a services (IaaS).
Computing infrastructure in predefined sizes or custom machine shapes to accelerate cloud transformation. General purpose machines (E2, N1,N2,N2D) offer a good compromise between price and performance. Compute optimized machines (C2) offer high-end performance vCPUs for compute-intensive workloads. Memory optimized (M2) systems offer the highest amount of memory and are ideal for in-memory database applications. Accelerator optimized machines (A2) are based on A100 GPUs, and are designed for high-demanding applications. Integrate Compute services with other Google Cloud Services, such as AI/ML or data analytics. Reservations can help you ensure that your applications will have the capacity needed as they scale. You can save money by running Compute using the sustained-use discount, and you can even save more when you use the committed-use discount.

IONOS offers GPU Servers that deliver a high-performance computing framework aimed at managing tasks that demand significantly more power than standard CPU systems can provide. This infrastructure features top-tier NVIDIA GPUs, including the H100, H200, and L40s, in addition to specialized AI accelerators like Intel Gaudi, facilitating extensive parallel processing for demanding applications. By utilizing GPU-accelerated instances, the cloud infrastructure is enhanced with dedicated graphical processors, enabling virtual machines to execute intricate calculations and handle data-heavy tasks at a much faster rate compared to traditional servers. This solution is especially well-suited for fields such as artificial intelligence, deep learning, and data science, where training models on extensive datasets or executing rapid inference processes is necessary. Furthermore, it accommodates big data analytics, scientific simulations, and visualization tasks, including 3D rendering or modeling, that necessitate substantial computational capacity. As a result, organizations seeking to optimize their processing capabilities for complex workloads can greatly benefit from this advanced infrastructure.

V2 Cloud
Most teams think of V2 Cloud as a DaaS provider, but the platform covers far more than virtual desktops. It gives businesses one managed cloud environment for everything their people use to work: Windows and Linux workstations, line-of-business software, files, databases, and any type of server. Users connect securely from wherever they are, and IT keeps full control from a single place.
Legacy VDI typically demands dedicated specialists, complex infrastructure, and long rollout timelines. V2 Cloud takes the opposite approach. Environments go live in minutes, the day-to-day infrastructure work is handled for you, and there's no on-premise hardware to buy or maintain. That makes it easier to consolidate resources, tighten security, and support staff who work remotely, in hybrid setups, at branch locations, or across different countries.
For heavier workloads such as engineering, design, or AI, GPU-powered virtual machines deliver the performance those applications need. Security controls come built in, and a multilingual support team is available around the clock whenever questions come up.
Discover how straightforward and cost-effective cloud computing can be, and start with V2 Cloud today.

Platform9
Platform9 Private Cloud Director turns existing servers and storage into a fully featured private cloud. It provides a fast and efficient method for organizations to migrate away from VMware, with minimal disruption. Enterprise IT teams get a familiar virtualization management experience and a true drop-in replacement for VMware vSphere features, offering all critical enterprise features out of the box: Virtual Machine (VM) High Availability, live migration (vMotion equivalent), Dynamic Resource Rebalancing (VMware DRS equivalent), VM cloning, snapshots, templates, software-defined networking, and secure multi-tenancy.
Unlike other solutions that may require proprietary hyperconverged infrastructure or re-platforming to Kubernetes, Private Cloud Director works with existing environments—including servers from Dell, HPE, Lenovo, and storage systems from NetApp, Tintri, Pure Storage, and more. Private Cloud Director can be deployed as a fully self-managed solution, a SaaS-managed service, or in air-gapped environments, giving IT teams complete control over their operating model.
With Platform9’s free vJailbreak tool, enterprises can perform automated migrations of entire VMware vSphere clusters to Private Cloud Director—including complex VM configurations, multiple datastores, and advanced network policies—at a fraction of the time and cost of traditional approaches.
Private Cloud Director supports both VMs and container workloads on a single unified platform, enabling a gradual transition to cloud-native architecture without disrupting current operations.
Private Cloud Director can be deployed flexibly as a fully self-managed solution, a SaaS-managed service, or in air-gapped environments.
