Products & Solutions:

Ceph and DAOS Management

• Complete lifecycle management of Ceph/DAOS clusters (installation, expansion, updates, monitoring).

• Integration of functions such as replication, snapshots, high availability, and monitoring via a central UI.

Added value for your company:

• One-stop shop: Core-Backbone supplies and operates servers, storage, network hardware, data center infrastructure, and connectivity – plus croit management. No need to purchase your own hardware, no multi-vendor management.

• High performance/scalability thanks to 40+ TBit/s backbone and easy cluster expansion.

• Maximum availability: Croit HA + Core Backbone redundancy + DDoS protection.

• Cost-efficient: rent instead of investment, less administrative effort.

Example: global S3 platform with low latency, protected and scalable – ideal for SaaS, AI, media.

Can be combined with our products:

Croit clusters can be seamlessly bundled with core backbone infrastructure – everything from a single source, including hardware rental and operation.

Dedicated Servers

Our dedicated servers are optimized for Ceph/DAOS: High storage density with RAID-enabled HDD/SSD/NVMe configurations, powerful AMD EPYC CPUs, and ECC RAM for stable cluster operation.

Added value: Immediate deployment (within hours), automatic hardware replacement in case of defects, 99.9% SLA – scale capacity monthly without CapEx or your own admins.

Colocation

Secure racks in our Nuremberg data centers, with redundant power supply, cooling, and 24/7 monitoring.

Added value: Direct backbone connection (short distances to IXPs), remote hands service for installations/maintenance, and options for geo-redundancy to other locations – maximum reliability for critical storage data.

Connectivity

Dedicated wavelengths up to 400 Gbit/s, EVPN for Layer 2 overlay or Layer 3 routing to clouds (AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud), partner data centers, or your company’s own locations.

Added value: Lowest latencies thanks to our own backbone, dynamic bandwidth adjustment – perfect for replication, backup, or multi-site clusters without external providers.

IP-Transit & DDoS Protection

Our 40+ Tbit/s backbone with 4200+ peerings for global, low-latency Internet connectivity for your storage, including automated DDoS mitigation.

Added value: Cost-efficient pricing models and volume advantages, 99.99% uptime, and proactive threat detection – your storage platform remains accessible even under load/attack.
