Compliant Cloud

Feature is in production and fully supported

Feature is deprecated, being phased out

The new Sto-Com region, also known as Compliant Cloud v2, implements certain technologies that significantly differentiate it from other Cleura Cloud regions.

Availability zones

The Sto-Com region has three (3) availability zones (AZs) connected by a stretched Layer 2 network. Resources are allocated randomly between the three whenever an AZ is not explicitly specified. Each AZ has its own block storage, and no live migration between AZs is possible.

Block storage

Sto1HS Sto2HS Sto-Com
Highly available storage
High-performance local storage
Volume encryption

Volumes in Sto-Com are provided by Ceph. Cloud servers with ephemeral storage have low-latency disks (LLDs) that are local to the corresponding hypervisor.

Domain-based OpenStack endpoints

Instead of having different endpoints on different ports of the same domain name, Sto-Com offers different subdomain names per endpoint.

The following is a list of domain-based endpoints valid for Sto-Com:

Service Name Service Type URL
barbican key-manager https://key-manager.sto-com.cleura.cloud/
cinderv3 volumev3 https://volume.sto-com.cleura.cloud/
octavia load-balancer https://load-balancer.sto-com.cleura.cloud/
keystone identity https://identity.sto-com.cleura.cloud/
radosgw object-store https://object-store.sto-com.cleura.cloud/
placement placement https://placement.sto-com.cleura.cloud/
heat orchestration https://orchestration.sto-com.cleura.cloud/
neutron network https://network.sto-com.cleura.cloud/
nova compute https://compute.sto-com.cleura.cloud/v2.1/
glance image https://image.sto-com.cleura.cloud/

Object storage

Sto1HS Sto2HS Sto-Com
S3 API
S3 SSE-C
S3 object lock
Swift API

The Object Store in Sto-Com is configured so that data written in a container or a bucket are automatically stored and synchronized between all three availability zones. Users may define policies so that a specific bucket is located in a single AZ.

Contrary to other regions, where images live on Ceph RBD pools, images in Sto-Com reside in an object store. As a result, new VMs in Sto-Com may take longer to initialize.

OVN Octavia provider

Sto-Com comes with two providers for Octavia: the Amphora Layer 7 Load Balancer (LB) and the OVN Layer 4 LB. The Amphora LB is the default.

Networking (Layer 2/3)

Sto1HS Sto2HS Sto-Com
IPv4 (with NAT)
IPv6
VPN (IPsec with PSK)

In Sto-Com, Quality of Service in Neutron is configured for tenant networks, router gateways, and floating IPs:

Port type Bandwidth limit
VM ports (private networks) 2 Gbps
Floating IPs 1 Gbps
Router Gateways 1 Gbps

Load Balancers
