Private Cloud · Engineering partnership
You dream it.
We build your cloud.
ZCP Private Cloud is not a template you rent. ZSoftly engineers sit with you, scope the outcome, pick the right stack for your workloads, build it, and stay on the line as you operate it. Compute, storage, networking, security, observability, assembled to fit your environment, not ours.
Moving off VMware? We scope and execute full migrations to an open-source virtualization platform. No licence renewal pressure, no vendor lock-in.
Your stack, not ours
We are not religious about the stack. We pick what fits you.
Most providers ship one opinionated stack and force every customer into it. ZSoftly does the opposite: we start from a proven open-source baseline, then mix and match components for your workloads, compliance posture, integrations, and operational model.
The result is a private cloud shaped like your environment instead of a copy of someone else's. No closed virtualization stack, no proprietary agents, no vendor lock-in baked into the architecture. If you outgrow ZCP, you take your workloads. The stack is yours.
Talk to our architects →Hypervisor
KVM (default)
Bring your hypervisor preference: KVM, Xen, or evaluation of vendor stacks. We deploy the one matching your operational team.
Orchestration
Apache CloudStack (default)
CloudStack is our default for IaaS orchestration. OpenStack is on the table where customer governance demands it. We scope the trade-offs in the design workshop.
Distributed storage
Ceph (default)
Ceph for most. We have run with alternate distributed-storage choices where customer hardware, performance, or compliance specs call for it.
Networking & firewall
OPNsense + WireGuard (default)
Open-source OPNsense by default. Enterprise firewall integrations (Palo Alto, Fortinet, Cisco) supported on customer request.
Observability
Prometheus + Grafana (default)
Prometheus + Grafana + Alertmanager is the default stack. We integrate with your existing Datadog, Splunk, or New Relic when you have one.
Portal & billing
Cloud Management Platform (CMP)
White-label tenant portal by default. Headless API-only deployment is supported for customers with their own customer-facing UI.
Mix and match, not lock-in. Your private cloud will not look like our reference architecture, and this is the point.

What you get
A private cloud built around you.
Operated by our engineers.
The defaults below are the baseline our engineers ship most often. Every layer is negotiable in the design workshop, you tell us your constraints and integrations, we assemble the stack to fit. The operations underneath are non-negotiable: we run it.
Compute: IaaS virtualization platform
Industry-proven IaaS orchestration. API-driven VM provisioning. Standard hypervisors. Your workloads stay portable.
Storage: Block and object storage
Distributed block storage for VMs and S3-compatible object storage. NVMe SSD, SSD, and HDD tiers. Replicated across nodes.
Network: OPNsense + WireGuard
Open-source firewall with HA pairing on Standard and above. WireGuard inter-zone VPN for multi-zone deployments.
White-label Portal: CMP layer
Your clients get a branded self-service portal for VM provisioning, billing, and usage reporting. Multi-tenant ready.
Observability: Prometheus + Grafana
Included on Standard and above. Full metrics stack, alerting, and dashboards for your operations team.
Managed by ZSoftly
We hold the infrastructure. We handle upgrades, security patches, and on-call. Monthly check-ins on Starter, SLA-backed on Standard+.
