Under the Hood

How It's Built

OpenStack at the base, hosted in France, with tooling narrowed to what a small team actually operates.

OpenStack as the Foundation

OpenStack is the base. Nemau Cloud keeps that standard but narrows the tooling to the operations a small team actually performs.

Known Base

The platform starts from infrastructure components people already know instead of a stack still trying to prove itself.

Technical Independence

The base stays open source, which helps avoid getting trapped in a closed ecosystem.

Practical Migration

When you need to move an existing application, the technical ground is already familiar.

Focused Scope

We concentrate on core infrastructure instead of promising a catalog that is too broad to operate well.

Migration Support

We help review what is already in place and pick a first service to move, without turning it into a drawn-out transformation plan.

Operations Layer & Tooling

The goal is not to expose every low-level option. It is to help a small team provision core resources quickly and repeatably.

REST API

Provision compute, storage, and network resources through a single API, without navigating multiple product families.

  • Single API endpoint for all resources
  • JWT authentication with API keys
  • OpenAPI 3.0 specification
  • Comprehensive error messages and status codes

CLI & SDKs

A single operational workflow for common actions.

  • Native CLI written in Go (fast, single binary)
  • Official SDKs: Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Go
  • Interactive mode for a quick start
  • Shell completion (bash, zsh, fish)

Terraform Support

Define repeatable environments with infrastructure as code.

  • Published on Terraform Registry
  • Complete resource coverage
  • Import existing infrastructure
  • Example modules and best practices

Migration Support

We help review what is already in place and pick a first service to move, without turning it into a drawn-out transformation plan.

  • VM images exportable in standard formats (QCOW2, VMDK, OVA)
  • Data export via S3-compatible API
  • Built on OpenStack, without a closed layer that boxes you in
  • Migration tools, utilities, and guidance included

Infrastructure Specifications

This page talks about capacity, storage, networking, and operations, not slogans.

Compute

Modern virtualization for websites, APIs, internal tools, and the services teams run every day.

  • Modern AMD and Intel server platforms
  • Capacity planning reviewed with operational discipline
  • Resource profiles shaped for steady services
  • KVM/QEMU virtualization stack
  • Maintenance workflows designed to reduce disruption

Storage

SSD-backed storage with replication and snapshot capabilities for core application and database use cases.

  • NVMe SSD storage for databases and low-latency services
  • Ceph-based distributed storage backend
  • Redundancy designed into the storage layer
  • Replication across failure domains
  • Snapshots and recovery workflows

Networking

Private networks, routed connectivity, and load balancing for common production patterns.

  • 10/25/40Gbps class networking
  • Software-defined network control
  • Overlay isolation for tenant environments
  • Advanced routing support where needed

Security Architecture

The controls people actually ask about: isolation, encryption, access, and operational follow-up.

  • Tenant network isolation
  • Stateful security groups
  • Encryption at rest and in transit
  • TLS for API communications
  • Operational review and continuous hardening
