📄 Editorial Review

Stackscale is a European Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) and Private Cloud provider with roots in the hosting world going back to the late 1990s. The company was conceived in Amsterdam in 2012, started commercial activity in 2013 from Spain, and is now part of Grupo Aire, a wider telecom and cloud group (they also include Tera Disk ) . The founders — David Carrero, David Sánchez and Javier Primo — previously built and merged successful Spanish hosting brands (Ferca Network and Veloxia Network) into Acens, so there is a long track record behind the current platform.

The focus is clearly on dedicated, high-performance infrastructure rather than commodity shared hosting. Everything revolves around private and hybrid cloud setups, bare-metal nodes, network storage and colocation inside tier-class data centers in Madrid and the Amsterdam region. Resources (CPU, RAM, storage and network) are reserved for each customer, which suits projects where noisy neighbors and unpredictable performance are not acceptable.

On the compute side, Stackscale structures its Private Cloud offering around two hardware generations:

• G3 nodes (AMD EPYC) – newer platforms with AMD EPYC processors, 20 or 80 Gbit/s high-speed networking, and fast NVMe local disks combined with networked storage. These nodes target demanding workloads and modern virtualization stacks.
• G2 nodes (Intel Xeon) – nodes built on recent Intel processors with 40 Gbit/s networking, local SSDs and direct connection to network storage, tuned for robust, enterprise-grade private clouds.

Virtualization is delivered using Proxmox VE or Broadcom VMware, so customers can choose between a leading open-source hypervisor and a classic enterprise virtualization stack. The idea is to combine virtualization flexibility with the guarantees of dedicated hardware, giving a "cloud experience" but with more predictable performance and isolation than typical public cloud instances.

Beyond private cloud, there is a full bare-metal server portfolio. Intel-based and AMD-based servers are offered with different profiles (CPU-optimized vs memory-optimized), usually with:

• Multi-core Intel Xeon or AMD EPYC CPUs
• From ~192 GiB up to 768 GiB RAM (and beyond in some configs)
• 2x SSD system disks plus support for multiple additional SATA/SAS or NVMe drives
• 40 Gbit/s redundant networking split between storage and private/Internet traffic
• Hardware RAID with NVRAM, out-of-band management and 24/7 monitoring

These servers are aimed at customers who want to run their own virtualization, big databases, in-memory analytics or custom stacks on top of a predictable physical layer.

Storage is another pillar. Stackscale’s Hybrid Plus network storage is built on NetApp FAS systems using flash plus SAS drives, reachable over a multi-40G/100G network. The storage line is organized in tiers (Flash Premium/Plus/Standard, Archive, etc.) and comes with enterprise-style features:

• IOPS service level around 1,000 IOPS per TB
• Snapshots taken every 6 hours, with several days of history
• Options for synchronous georeplication between independent data centers for Disaster Recovery
• The ability to expand or shrink storage and change tiers non-disruptively

On top of that base infrastructure, Stackscale provides several specialized products and solutions:

• Synchronous network storage for mission-critical, high-availability database and virtualization clusters
• Infrastructure for Disaster Recovery, combining remote data centers, network storage and replicas
• Managed services and advanced system administration for customers who want Stackscale’s team to handle more of the day-to-day operations
• Colocation services in their partner data centers, for customers who bring their own hardware but want to leverage the same network and facilities
• Solution bundles for eCommerce, ISPs, backup/DR, OpenStack, OpenNebula, server migration to cloud and CDN integration

A key theme across the platform is transparency: hardware specs, network design, redundancy mechanisms and certifications are documented in detail. They explicitly aim at medium and large consumers of compute, storage and network resources — IaaS/PaaS/SaaS providers, IT integrators, web and app hosters, managed service providers, VoIP platforms and similar.

What Stackscale does not do is typical low-end shared hosting, simple WordPress packages, or domain-only services. This is an infrastructure provider for teams that are comfortable managing operating systems, virtualization and application stacks themselves, or that work with an integration partner.
