Gcore has expanded the regional coverage of its cloud services, including Infrastructure as a Service, AI IPU Infrastructure, Logging as a Service, and Managed Kubernetes. New points of presence are located in the US, Asia, and EMEA. Read on to learn more about the services and their locations.
IaaS: 23 Locations
As an IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) provider, Gcore offers virtual machines, bare metal servers, S3 storage, load balancing, and other cloud services. With Gcore’s IaaS, you get all the necessary building blocks for your cloud infrastructure.
In May 2023, we added new points of presence in Dubai (UAE) and Newport (UK.) The total list of Gcore Cloud PoPs comprises 23 locations across the Americas, Asia, Africa, and EMEA.
AI IPU infrastructure: 3 Locations
Gcore also provides AI Infrastructure as a Service based on Graphcore IPUs. AI IPU infrastructure speeds up machine learning and produces outstanding results for language processing, visual computing, and graph neural networks.
AI IPU infrastructure is now available in Luxembourg, Amsterdam, and Newport.
LaaS: 2 Locations
LaaS (Logging as a Service) is a cloud log management platform designed to collect, store, process, and analyze logs from infrastructure and applications. LaaS makes it easier to analyze events and data from multiple services in a single dashboard. With Gcore’s LaaS, you can detect and resolve errors in your infrastructure, investigate security incidents, check server connectivity, and more.
LaaS is available in Luxembourg and Manassas.
FaaS: 9 Locations
FaaS (Function as a Service) is a cloud service that lets you run code without worrying about the underlying infrastructure. You simply write a discrete piece of code called “function” and deploy it in our cloud environment. A function runs on demand, and you are charged only for its execution. FaaS helps to save costs on deploying a simple application, expanding functionality, and reducing time-to-market.
FaaS is now available in core regions in addition to edge regions. Here is the complete list of locations:
- Luxembourg
- Luxembourg-2
- Manassas
- Singapore
