A virtual private cloud is a closed cloud available in the public cloud space, isolated from the public part, but operating in the same infrastructure. Scaleway launched Private Networks open cloud beta tests in September. As the brand emphasizes, they allowed for the conclusion that the private solution meets the scalability and security requirements, regardless of the size of the customer. Private Networks are available to existing Scaleway customers free of charge, at no extra transfer cost, and can be activated from the client console as well as via APIs. In terms of throughput, private networks allow speeds of up to 4 Gbps.

Scaleway, Europe’s second largest public cloud provider, is launching a virtual private cloud service.

All customers using Generic, GPU and Scaleway Public Cloud Development now have access to the private cloud. Private Networks offers VLAN (Layer 2) technology, combined with Q-in-Q mechanisms, to isolate resources from the public network. The solution enables the connection of one computing instance in eight different VLANs and can integrate up to 256 instances per one VLAN. In terms of bandwidth, private networks allow bandwidths of up to 4 Gbps.

Scaleway has already provided its cloud solutions to over 160 countries.

The most popular private networks use by Scaleway clients include secure web applications in cloud, isolated databases, online log backups and storage, and custom security measures to avoid threats such as DDoS attacks. As the brand emphasizes, the demand for flexible and secure IT infrastructure is constantly growing. The launch of Private Networks today is a new step towards achieving this goal.
