Modular cloud platform for infrastructure providers offering compute, PaaS, and GPU.

Visit gridscale

gridscale is a cloud infrastructure provider offering compute, platform services and GPU resources for building public, private or hybrid clouds. It addresses the need for scalable, independently operated infrastructure with data processing under German data protection rules, supported by a German company headquarters and datacenter operation. The platform is BSI:C5 certified and also holds ISAE 3402 SOC 1 Typ 2 certification.

Core capabilities include Compute for deploying and scaling virtual machines, PaaS covering managed Kubernetes, databases and load balancers, and GPU provisioning with AMD GPUs for AI and machine learning workloads. Managed services handle operations through automated workflows, monitoring and maintenance. The panel provides a graphical interface alongside a RESTful API, and datacenter hardware can be placed at a chosen location. Optional modules extend the platform with Branding, Vendor and Hybrid Core editions.

gridscale targets businesses and partners that need flexible cloud infrastructure without operating complex systems themselves. The Enterprise Cloud is packaged with usage-based, minute-precise billing and dynamic resource adjustment, starting at a monthly base fee, with optional modules added as needed. Costs are tracked in real time through consumption diagrams, and a full price list is available via a request form.
