Cirrus Cloud Platform

Cirrus Cloud Platform (CCP) is Coredge's hyper-scaler grade Cloud Management Platform (CMP) purpose-built for sovereign and enterprise cloud environments. It delivers a unified self-service experience for Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) — enabling service providers, governments, and enterprises to operate cloud infrastructure at national scale with full governance and control.

CCP works in combination with Cirrus Cloud Platform (CCP), the IaaS Orchestrator, and Cloud Orbiter, the Kubernetes Orchestrator, to provide a complete end-to-end cloud management stack above the underlying infrastructure.

What it does

  • Self-Service Provisioning — On-demand VMs, containers, bare metal, storage, and networking without manual intervention
  • Centralised Governance — Unified management plane across all regions and availability zones with built-in API gateway and access control
  • Multi-Tenant IAM — Keycloak-based identity with per-tenant realm isolation, SAML 2.0 federation, and 18 pre-defined RBAC roles
  • High Availability — Active-passive dual-cluster per region with automated GSLB failover and 2N+1 quorum detection
  • Metering & FinOps — Built-in metering, showback, and quota management across all tenants and cells
  • Enterprise Security — mTLS in-transit, AES-256 at-rest, OpenFGA RBAC, and per-tenant Keycloak realm isolation
  • Scalable Architecture — Scales to 50,000 VMs and 200,000 pods; add worker nodes on demand as workloads grow
