Hivelocity Teams Up with Ridge to Enable Cloud-Native Web Services

“By overlaying our flexible cloud platform on top of Hivelocity’s vast range of servers around the globe, our partnership will open the door to levels of app performance that until now were impossible to meet,” said Mati Lerner, Co-Founder and Co-CEO at Ridge.

“For most companies, Hivelocity’s bare metal cloud together with Ridge’s cloud-native web services should really be a no-brainer,” said Steve Eschweiler, COO at Hivelocity.

U.S. IaaS hosting and bare metal cloud provider, Hivelocity, is now collaborating with cloud provider Ridge. Hivelocity’s new partnership with Ridge’s cloud platform means clients can now deploy cloud-native applications anywhere their customers are, at lower cost and with reduced latency, greater data sovereignty, as well as the highest performance.

With dedicated machine-based hybrid and multi-cloud architectures on the increase, having access to a uniform cloud interface is more important than ever, stated Hivelocity. Ridge would provide a simple solution for developers to easily deploy and scale cloud-native applications across private, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments by providing a single API capable of enabling programmatic usage of Kubernetes clusters, virtual machines, and public cloud containers from anywhere.

Ridge’s Resource Allocation Engine also allows customers to deploy their apps in specified geographic regions while also specifying cost and compliance limits. They can run workloads on top of any stack and tailor their cloud computing approach to meet their aims rather than the limits of the technology.

“Bare metal has always performed better and costs less than a like instance within any public cloud,” said Steve Eschweiler, Chief Operating Officer (COO) at Hivelocity. “With Ridge, our customers are now able to enjoy those clear benefits while also experiencing easy K8s deployment. For most companies, Hivelocity’s bare metal cloud together with Ridge’s cloud-native web services should really be a no-brainer.”

Bare Metal, Hybrid Cloud

Users’ bare metal or hybrid cloud solution may now expand and run with the same ease of use they’ve come to expect from the public cloud, concluded Hivelocity, thanks to the added control of the Ridge-managed Kubernetes, container, and object storage platforms.

“Cloud-native applications drive business growth, and businesses need the versatility to deploy anywhere they need to best serve their customers,” said Mati Lerner, Co-Founder and Co-CEO at Ridge. “By overlaying our flexible cloud platform on top of Hivelocity’s vast range of servers around the globe, our partnership will open the door to levels of app performance that until now were impossible to meet.”
