Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): Network, Servers, OS, Storage
On-demand fundamental computing resources using transparent, community-driven software.
In the modern enterprise, rigid proprietary infrastructure is a bottleneck. We build and maintain high-performance, open-source compute layers that give you absolute control over your bare metal, virtualized, and containerized workloads.
What is Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)?
IaaS is a cloud service model that provides on-demand fundamental computing resources. We possess deep Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHCE level) expertise, combined with massive open-source hypervisor experience including OpenStack, KVM/QEMU, libvirt, and VMware ESXi.
Private Cloud IaaS Architecture
A complete private cloud topology showing compute nodes running KVM hypervisors managed by OpenStack, connected to distributed Ceph storage and Software-Defined Networking via OVS/OVN.
KVM Performance Tuning for Telephony Workloads
Running real-time telephony applications inside virtual machines requires aggressive performance tuning beyond standard VM provisioning. We configure CPU pinning (vcpupin) to dedicate physical cores to telephony VMs, eliminating context-switching jitter. Hugepages (2MB or 1GB) are allocated to prevent TLB misses during audio buffer processing. NUMA topology awareness ensures VMs access memory on their local NUMA node, avoiding expensive cross-socket memory access. For network I/O, we bypass the hypervisor's virtual switch entirely using SR-IOV (Single Root I/O Virtualization), giving the telephony VM direct hardware access to the NIC. This reduces packet processing latency from ~500μs (virtio) to ~10μs, which is critical for maintaining RTP stream integrity under high concurrency. These optimizations allow our KVM-hosted FreeSWITCH instances to match bare-metal performance within 2-3% — a negligible trade-off for the operational flexibility that virtualization provides.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Given recent licensing changes in virtualization, we frequently assist clients in migrating massive workloads smoothly to KVM/libvirt or fully-fledged OpenStack.
Absolutely. We routinely bridge on-premise OpenStack environments with public cloud providers via secure, high-throughput SD-WAN links.
We deploy Ceph as the primary storage backend, providing unified block (RBD), object (S3), and file (CephFS) storage. This eliminates the need for expensive SAN appliances while providing self-healing and automatic rebalancing.
We configure VFIO-based GPU passthrough in KVM, allowing VMs to access dedicated NVIDIA GPUs directly for AI inference, model training, or video transcoding workloads.
Yes. Our KVM/QEMU deployments fully support Windows guests with VirtIO drivers for optimal disk and network performance, including proper SPICE/VNC console access.
