Owning your own compute means staying in control of cost, performance, and risk. Cycle gives you the ability to choose the right hardware for the job, whether that's high-density cloud VMs, GPU-heavy bare-metal, or something in between.
There is a strict separation between the platform, and your compute. Apart from telemetry, no data is sent back to the control plane. Cycle powers businesses with strict HIPAA, SOC2, and other compliance requirements precisely because their data never leaves their servers.
Mix cloud and on-prem bare-metal and VMs, and deploy & manage it all in one place.
Cycle automatically builds Layer 2 and Layer 3 networks across your nodes -- enabling secure, routed communication between containers, VMs, and hosts, even across datacenters.
Unlike other platforms that force you to use specific hardware, Cycle works with any commodity hardware - Dell, Intel, Supermicro - you name it.
We've been running Cycle in production to power a fully automated, solar-backed data center. It's lean, flexible, and eliminates the need for bloated licensing stacks. This is what modern infrastructure should look like.

A refreshingly simple alpine-based operating system, Cycle OS powers every compute node connected to the platform. By standardizing the operating system, we eliminate any variables that may arise between different linux distros. This leads to a better, more unified experience and reduces hard-to-find bugs.
Deputize any raw compute and join it into your global private cloud. Customize network boot parameters such as IPs, V(X)LAN and DNS, generate a reusable ISO using the portal or API, and simply boot.

For enterprise and-datacenter grade operations, the Infrastructure Abstraction Layer (IAL) provides a powerful API for automated compute resource management. Configure an API endpoint that Cycle will call into when it's time to provision or auto-scale resources, and manage on-prem servers the same way as any hyperscaler.
Utilize various deployment strategies to distribute workloads efficiently across the best nodes for the job.
Move applications from cloud provider to cloud provider, to on-prem servers, and back again effortlessly.
