Platform Architecture
CloudNexus operates on a decoupled control plane and data plane architecture. This separation ensures that management operations never impact user traffic, enabling independent scaling, zero-downtime updates, and resilient multi-region failover.
Control Plane
- API Gateway
- Orchestrator
- Auth & Identity
- Billing & Quotas
Edge Layer
- Anycast Routing
- WAF & DDoS
- Cache / CDN
- SSL Termination
Origin / Compute
- Kubernetes Clusters
- VPS / Bare Metal
- Managed Databases
- Object Storage
All inter-service communication uses mutual TLS (mTLS). State is persisted across redundant regions with Raft-based consensus, guaranteeing consistency even during partial outages.
Global Infrastructure
Our network spans 50+ regions across 6 continents, with 300+ edge locations. Traffic is routed via BGP anycast, ensuring users always connect to the nearest PoP with sub-10ms latency.
Storage is distributed using erasure coding across 3 distinct availability zones per region. Compute nodes leverage Intel Xeon Scalable and AMD EPYC processors with NVMe tier-1 storage.
Core Capabilities
Every service is exposed via a unified API, designed for stateless scaling, horizontal elasticity, and infrastructure-as-code workflows.
🖥️ Compute
GPU-accelerated VMs, containers, serverless functions, and bare metal. Auto-scaling based on custom metrics or predictive ML models.
🗄️ Data
Managed PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, MongoDB, and TimescaleDB. Automated backups, point-in-time recovery, and read replicas.
🌐 Networking
Global Load Balancer, private VPC peering, service mesh, DNS management, and dedicated 10/100/400 Gbps connections.
🛡️ Security
Zero-trust architecture, KMS encryption, WAF rules, DDoS mitigation, audit logging, and role-based access control.
Developer Experience
CloudNexus is built for engineers. Provision resources in seconds with our CLI, SDKs, Terraform provider, and GitOps-native workflows.
Full API documentation, Postman collections, and interactive playgrounds are available at docs.cloudnexus.dev/api. Webhooks, event streaming, and audit trails are enabled by default.
Security & Compliance
Security is embedded at every layer. We follow a zero-trust model, encrypt data at rest and in transit, and undergo regular third-party audits.
Encryption
AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit. Customer-managed keys (CMK) supported via AWS KMS, Azure Key Vault, or HashiCorp Vault.
Network Isolation
VPC peering, security groups, network ACLs, and private endpoints. No shared tenancy for control plane access.
Audit & Logging
Immutable audit trails, SIEM integration, real-time threat detection, and automated incident response playbooks.
