Application Platform, the Aruba Cloud PaaS solution

Application Platform allows automatic scaling of virtualized resources thanks to the combination of the PaaS (Platform as a Service) and CaaS (Container as a Service) models. This solution offers the resources required to guarantee any cloud service, from a simple app to sophisticated corporate applications. 

Application Platform features

A platform based on Cloudlets

A cloudlet represents a micro instance that constitutes the granularity within the Application Platform.

  • Each cloudlet corresponds to 128 MB of RAM and 400 MHz of vCPU.
  • Reserved cloudlets: computational power is dedicated entirely to your application.
  • Dynamic cloudlets: managed automatically based on the quantity of resources required by the application, up to a configurable limit. 

Get the best out of CaaS technology

A container (or node) represents an isolated virtual instance to which you can assign computational resources (CPU, RAM and HD) to use for managing programs and applications.

  • Multi-cloud: container portability means instances can be run simultaneously on multiple providers.
  • Isolation: each container contains resources isolated from the others.
  • Reversibility: Docker allows rollback to previous versions in a matter of minutes.

Application Platform pricing

The service is available both in pay-per-use mode and in preconfigured plans. The pay-per-use model offers complete flexibility and you only pay for the resources you use, the monthly fee plan gives you the advantage of having fixed costs and no surprises.

Why choose Application Platform?

Flexible

Application Platform is a single solution compatible with PHP, Java, Ruby, Node.js, Python and Docker, so offering the flexibility of IaaS infrastructure, combined with the benefits of PaaS architecture.

Scalable

A PaaS solution is perfect when you have applications that do not need the power of Cloud servers or physical servers all the time, because it lets you optimize use of resources by taking advantage of horizontal and vertical auto scaling.

Simple to use

Application Platform allows you to build complex infrastructures with high availability. If you want to install an application, add more load balancers, servers, memory or processors, you can do so in just a few clicks.

Secure

Your data is stored at our data centers, designed using innovative solutions to guarantee maximum reliability, with the highest levels of certification for resilience and infrastructure quality (ANSI/TIA 942-B-2017 STANDARD RATING 4 and ISO 22237).
