ZSoftly Cloud Platform

ZCP roadmap

What we are building next.

ZCP is becoming a developer cloud that runs in ZSoftly regions, private environments, and partner data centers. This roadmap shows direction and lifecycle, not a promise of exact release dates.

From services to platform

The path to ZCP.

ZCP grew out of ZSoftly's professional services practice. The milestones below separate our company origin, partner ecosystem, private-cloud engineering, and public-cloud product work.

ZSoftly starts with professional services

The founding team defined the company around cloud security, DevOps, cloud migration, and practical technology services.

The partner model takes shape

Strategic partner planning became part of the operating model as ZSoftly prepared a broader services ecosystem.

Partner ecosystem expands

Partner documentation covered Vanta, JumpCloud, GitLab, and related security and DevOps tooling for customer delivery.

AWS partner work begins

AWS partner accreditation work joined the services and partner program alongside the existing cloud delivery practice.

The private-cloud direction is conceived

ZSoftly began exploring how to operate private clouds and package infrastructure as a managed product, extending the professional-services model.

The hosted business suite becomes platform work

ZSoftly codified and operated a hosted suite of open-source business applications through GitOps, including identity, helpdesk, automation, passwords, knowledge, security, time tracking, databases, observability, and CI runners.

Dedicated IaaS engineering begins

The IaaS repository formalized CloudStack and OpenStack architecture, Proxmox, KVM, Ceph, networking, storage, and the deployment foundations for private-cloud delivery.

ZCP public beta begins

ZCP entered public beta with YOW-1 as the only live region. The first public product surface began, followed by public-release preparation for the ZCP CLI on March 23.

YOW becomes the first ZCP region

The YOW CloudStack foundation brought together KVM compute, Ceph storage, networking, monitoring, and Kubernetes service work for the first regional platform.

Regional platform assembly accelerates

CloudStack networking, storage, VPCs, Terraform modules, deployment automation, and regional operations moved into active build-out.

YUL becomes the second live region

The YUL zone bring-up established regional CloudStack, Ceph, networking, DNS, and customer control-plane foundations for Montreal deployments.

The universal control plane takes shape

The API, CLI, documentation, and Terraform provider began converging around one ZCP resource model.

Developer releases establish a cadence

The CLI and Terraform provider reached regular release activity across compute, networking, storage, Kubernetes, and DNS.

Public product direction

A clear path from idea to service.

We publish a small set of product themes so teams know where ZCP is headed without turning the public roadmap into an internal project tracker.

Exploring

Direction under evaluation

Core cloud

YUL local storage tiers

Evaluate host-local data volumes on NVMe and SSD tiers for workloads that manage replication and recovery at the application layer. Proposed b2.l1 and b2.l2 tiers would complement the durable shared b2.g1 and b2.g2 storage categories.

TargetNo date committed

Core cloud

YUL lower-cost shared HDD storage

Evaluate a durable shared HDD tier for backups, archives, and infrequently accessed data. A proposed b2.g3 category would sit apart from the local tiers and their recovery model.

TargetNo date committed

Core cloud

FreeBSD image for OPNsense

Prepare a maintained FreeBSD-based OPNsense image for ZCP firewall deployments. FreeBSD is available today as a general-purpose image. The OPNsense build is still on the roadmap.

TargetNo date committed

Developer platform

AI application hosting and operations

Explore a managed hosting service for AI-generated websites, stores, SaaS products, learning platforms, and internal tools. The service would cover hosting, security, updates, backups, monitoring, and support after launch.

TargetNo date committed

Data and AI

Managed databases

Offer managed database instances with backups, maintenance, access controls, and regional boundaries.

TargetNo date committed

Universal control plane

Universal deployment package

Deploy the same ZCP control model across ZSoftly regions, private environments, and partner data centers.

TargetNo date committed

Data and AI

Private AI and data platform

Build region-controlled foundations for GPUs, inference, embeddings, vector search, and AI workloads.
