Private Cloud FAQ
Find the answer to the commonly asked question or check out our Private Cloud documentation to learn more.
UpCloud Private Cloud is a dedicated, single-tenant cloud platform delivered on UpCloud’s infrastructure. It gives you the same user experience, APIs, and management tools as UpCloud Public Cloud—but on hardware reserved solely for you.
- Versus Public Cloud: Public Cloud is multi-tenant, billed per resource, and shares hosts between customers. Private Cloud offers dedicated compute, storage, and networking, ensuring predictable performance and stronger governance.
- Versus Bare Metal: Bare metal servers give raw dedicated resources but lack cloud features. Private Cloud provides a control plane (API, UI, snapshots, networks) while keeping the benefits of physical isolation.
- Performance: Guaranteed resources and consistent performance without noisy neighbours.
- Isolation & Security: Dedicated hardware, logically separated networks, and enhanced access controls.
- Familiar Platform: Same control panel, API, and automation tools as UpCloud Public Cloud.
UpCloud Private Cloud is delivered as a fully managed service, not a DIY platform stack. While VMware, OpenStack, and Proxmox private clouds require you (or a partner) to install, configure, license, and maintain the hypervisor and control plane, UpCloud handles the entire infrastructure lifecycle so you can focus on your workloads.
Key differences:
- Management & Simplicity: UpCloud provides a ready-to-use environment with the same Control Panel, API, and Terraform provider as its Public Cloud. No patching or upgrading of the virtualisation layer is required.
- Operational Overhead: Hardware lifecycle, monitoring, high availability, and platform updates are handled by UpCloud, reducing the need for in-house virtualisation expertise.
- Licensing & Cost: One clear subscription covers dedicated compute, storage, and network. There are no separate hypervisor or orchestration licences.
- Scalability & Elasticity: Scaling is as simple as adding capacity through UpCloud’s Hub or API or by ordering new compute nodes; the platform adapts without redesigning clusters.
- Use Case Fit: Ideal for organisations that want the agility of cloud combined with the isolation of dedicated hardware, without running or maintaining their own VMware/OpenStack/Proxmox stack.
Yes. UpCloud supports Bring Your Own IP (BYOIP). Your prefixes can be announced via BGP (subject to validation and LOA). Availability and prefix size requirements depend on the target region.
You can migrate using:
- Snapshots and redeployment to the new environment.
- Relocate Server API (link) for automated server moves between zones and private environments.
- Hybrid bridge: Temporarily connect Public ↔ Private via VPN / SDN Private Network Peering for phased cutovers.
UpCloud’s support and professional services can guide you through planning and execution.
Private Cloud inherits UpCloud’s 99.999% uptime SLA for core services (compute, storage, network). Premium SLA tiers are available, including faster response and hardware replacement times.
Private Cloud hosts are monitored 24/7. If a node fails, the VMs are started automatically on healthy hosts.
- MaxIOPS block storage for high-performance workloads.
- Standard block storage for general purpose use.
- Archive storage as a high volume data storage.
- Object Storage for backups and unstructured data.
- Snapshot backups for disaster recovery.
Yes, contact our sales team for more information.
Yes. You can deploy third-party backup tools (e.g., Veeam, Commvault, Bacula, Restic, Borg, etc.) as VMs or appliances inside your Private Cloud. Because you control the guest OS, you can run agents or services to protect data at file or application level.
- Vertical scaling: Resize servers within host capacity.
- Horizontal scaling: Add more hosts, storage pools, or clusters; expansions can often be done online.
- Storage growth: Volumes can be expanded or new volumes attached without downtime (OS dependent).
- UpCloud Control Panel for graphical management.
- UpCloud API and Terraform provider for automation.
- Compatible with DevOps tools such as Ansible, Packer, and Prometheus.
Yes. You may deploy custom firewalls, VPN appliances, IDS/IPS, or WAFs as virtual instances, or configure OS-level firewalls. Private network and routing features allow advanced segmentation.
Yes. You can select any UpCloud data centre for deployment to meet latency or data residency requirements. If you would like to have UpCloud Private Cloud in a DC of your choice, that can be discussed as well with our Sales team.
Yes. Multi-site deployments are supported, including support for building active/active or active/passive setups.
UpCloud cloud platform comes with a dedicated and preselected set of hardware that is rigorously selected to meet the high standards UpCloud is know for.
Yes. That is one of the key differentiators for UpCloud’s Private Cloud. You can use both Private and Public Clouds with the same credentials using the same user interfaces and seamlessly connect resources using our SDN Private Networks or VPN.
Windows Server licensing in the UpCloud Private Cloud is handled at the host level rather than at individual Cloud Server basis. By applying a fixed-fee Windows Server license to your dedicated compute node, you are permitted to run an unlimited number of Windows instances on that specific host hardware. This replaces the traditional pay-per-VM model.
Note that Bring Your Own License (BYOL) is available for other 3rd party applications like SQL Server, provided they meet vendor mobility requirements.
All Windows Server licenses must be provided by UpCloud.
Bring Your Own License (BYOL) is available for other 3rd party applications such as SQL Servers.
Yes, eligible licenses (e.g., with Software Assurance) can be brought to Private Cloud environments when compliant with vendor policies.
Private Cloud is billed as a monthly subscription per host plus optional pay-as-you-go for storages, backups, etc.
Yes, Private Cloud is usually contracted for at least 12 months, with shorter pilots or longer commitments negotiated case-by-case.
- Upgrade: Order a new host from your Account Manager.
- Downgrade: Available at renewal or through revised capacity commitments.
