ProfitBricks provides virtual data centers that enable corporate customers to combine the advantages of cloud computing with the established look and feel of a traditional data center. The company offers the unique advantage of guaranteeing performance by mapping the physical processor one-to-one with the virtual processor; virtual machines can be easily transferred to ProfitBricks with no “lock-in” effect. Furthermore, ProfitBricks offers a simple price model with fair minute-based billing and an unrivalled price-performance ratio.
Coupling Bright’s infrastructure management technology with ProfitBricks’ IaaS gives organizations a more agile and cost-effective solution to their premise-based high performance clustered environments, a viable, cloud-based alternative. Together, Bright and ProfitBricks empower customers to dynamically expand or shrink the infrastructure needed to support their computationally intensive workloads whether it’s traditional HPC or HPC-based Big Data analysis with Hadoop or Spark, all at the click of a button. This allows enterprises, research institutes and universities to only pay for the computational resources they need, when they are needed; saving time and budget. In addition, organizations are able to consume high volumes of compute power on an ad hoc basis, providing a much more elastic solution for computationally intensive workloads.
