Leaseweb has entered the public cloud market.
The cloud services and Infrastructure as a Service provider has officially launched its own Public Cloud offering.
According to Leaseweb, the offering will be around 30 percent cheaper than traditional hyperscalers while meeting the performance, reliability, and service levels expected.
The public cloud offering has no upfront costs, is billed with an on-demand subscription model, and has global availability in seven regions. In addition, the solution does not have any vendor lock-in clauses attached
“Leaseweb Public Cloud has been designed in close consultation with customers who value the hyperscale concept but want an alternative with better price, performance, and flexibility,” said Con Zwinkels, CEO at Leaseweb. “Our track record, leadership, and customer-first approach, position us to make a significant, positive impact on the public cloud market.”
The Public Cloud Instances are delivered as virtual servers which can be optimized whether for general purpose, compute optimized, or memory-optimized, depending on the workload.
Leaseweb is also offering private network functionality for free. Storage options include network-attached central SSD storage with built-in redundancy or local NVMe with 15K IOPS performance and low latency.
A customer of the Leaseweb Public Cloud is Sporttotal.tv.
"The primary reason we chose Leaseweb was their balance between price and performance,” said Omer Karabacak, Head of Infrastructure at Sporttotal.tv GmbH. “Although there may be cheaper alternatives, it doesn't necessarily mean they are of good quality. Additionally, Leaseweb stands out in terms of its excellent customer support. No other company has provided us with a whole team of people who guide us every step of the way."
Leaseweb provides cloud, colocation, content delivery network and cybersecurity services to more than 20,000 customers worldwide. The company has more than 80,000 servers, and operates 25 data centers across Europe, Asia, Australia, Canada, and North America. In 2021, the company acquired Canadian hosting firm iWeb.
