Stay Competitive – Have an AI-Ready Infrastructure

In a time where data is the new oil, having full control over your infrastructure is no longer a luxury—it’s a strategic advantage. This is the aim behind the Cloud Factory – bring the ability for a truly sovereign, AI-ready private cloud, combining the power of open-source innovation with the control and security that modern businesses demand.

Built on OpenNebula, Cloud Factory is more than just a platform. It’s a complete ecosystem for deploying, automating, and managing cloud-native and AI workloads, from small businesses to large enterprises. Whether you’re building intelligent applications, training machine learning models, or simply looking to regain control over your data, Cloud Factory gives you the tools to innovate with confidence.

 

What is the Cloud Factory?

Cloud Factory is a suite of open-source tools designed to deploy, automate, and monitor on-premise cloud infrastructure.
Powered by OpenNebula, it allows organisations to build their own private cloud with a simple interface, high customisation, and a sovereign model—hosted and controlled entirely by you.

 

A new generation of Cloud infrastructure

Cloud Factory is based on a distributed architecture that allows resource deployment across multiple sites or datacenters while maintaining centralised control. This ensures:

  • High availability—even in case of local outages
  • Intelligent workload distribution based on proximity, performance, or compliance
  • Enhanced resilience for your critical data and applications

This architecture allows the Cloud Factory to adapt to both single-site and multi-site or hybrid environments.

With the Cloud Factory, you’re not just building a private cloud.
You’re creating a sovereign, modern, ethical, and distributed infrastructure tailored to your local context.
No more trade-offs between control, innovation, and simplicity.

 

An AI-ready Cloud for tomorrow’s enterprises

And it gets even better, the Cloud Factory is a fully AI-ready private cloud platform designed to support modern machine learning and AI applications.

With native support for AI workloads, Cloud Factory allows you to:

  • Quickly deploy and scale AI models within a secure, sovereign environment
  • Run large language models (LLMs) like LLaMA, Deepseek, Qwen, EuroLLM, Mistral, and many others
  • Seamlessly integrate with popular AI frameworks like PyTorch, TensorFlow, and Hugging Face
  • Automate training and inference processes for faster AI project cycles

Whether you’re experimenting with AI prototypes, deploying production models, or scaling enterprise-grade AI solutions, the Cloud Factory provides the infrastructure to make it happen—without sacrificing control or security.

 

Who is it for?

Cloud Factory is designed for:

  • Organisations concerned with data sovereignty and compliance (public sector, healthcare, finance, education)
  • MSPs, integrators, and datacenters looking to offer sovereign cloud services to their clients
  • IT and DevOps teams seeking full control while maintaining agility
  • AI and data science teams looking to deploy, scale, and monitor AI workloads—including LLMs—on sovereign infrastructure
  • Companies looking for simplicity without compromising on security or scalability
