STAKATERSTAKATERBuild Your Own Cloud
Four steps between owning a data centre and running a cloud business. Most organisations complete two.
✓ Compute, storage, networking
✓ Kubernetes — clusters running, workloads deployed
✓ Internal teams can use the infrastructure
? External customers can't self-provision
? Usage isn't metered or billed
? There's no cloud product — just infrastructure
The gap between steps 2 and 4 is where cloud businesses fail to launch.
The foundation. Most organisations already have this. The question is what they do with it.
Compute capacity you own or lease
Block, object, or file storage
Connectivity, isolation, routing
AI accelerators, edge nodes, FPGAs
Raw infrastructure has no business model. It becomes valuable when you can sell what runs on it.
Kubernetes turns infrastructure into programmable APIs. This is where most teams arrive — and stop.
Infrastructure exposed as Kubernetes APIs. Create VMs, deploy containers, attach storage — all declarative, all programmable.
✗ Only engineers can use them
✗ No self-service for non-technical users
✗ No metering, no billing, no tenant isolation
✗ You can't sell access to an API without a commercial layer
Self-service portal
6–12 months to build a usable portal. Then maintain it forever.
Multi-tenancy
Hard isolation requires architecture decisions that can't be undone later.
Metering + billing
Usage data pipelines and billing integration alone take 12+ months.
Most organisations start building. Few finish. The market window closes before revenue starts.
The moment infrastructure becomes a product — when anyone can consume it without a ticket.
Tenants browse VMs, clusters, databases, GPU environments. Order in one click.
Your brand, your domain. Customers never see the infrastructure underneath.
Provisioning is automated. Onboarding runs in minutes, not weeks.
Delivered by Cloud Orchestrator — portal, catalog, and automated onboarding out of the box.
Anything-as-a-Service. The moment self-service becomes a business — with tenants, metering, and revenue.
KCP virtual control plane per tenant. Enterprise-grade isolation.
Per-tenant, per-resource tracking. Real-time. Export-ready.
Usage flows to your invoicing system automatically. SAP, BSS, custom.
RBAC, audit trail, policy enforcement. Compliance-ready.
VMaaS · KaaS · DBaaS · GPUaaS · IDP · Sovereign Cloud — the model applies to all of them.
