Case Study: Cloud Provider cuts time-to-market for its next-generation cloud platform with Digital Realty

Cloud Provider Cuts the Time to Market for its Next-Generation Cloud Platform

Cloud Provider is a Dutch IaaS founded by Sander Cruiming that delivers high-performance, highly virtualised hosting for about 800 customers running traffic‑intensive and interactive websites. Constrained by limited space, power and connectivity at its previous colocation provider, the company needed to develop a next‑generation, scalable cloud platform and extend its footprint into other European markets while keeping costs and reliability under control.

Cloud Provider solved this by colocating at Interxion’s Amsterdam campus and deploying a pre‑validated OnApp CloudPOD, gaining high‑density power, carrier neutrality and a marketplace of partners. The new setup shortened time to market, allowed the company to rapidly serve waiting customers, improved connectivity and sustainability options, and positioned Cloud Provider for straightforward European expansion.
