Cloud Migration to Selectel: Infrastructure for Developers

Migration to Selectel Cloud

Powerful Infrastructure for our Development Team

Internal Engineering Pitch

Why Consider Migration?

Scalability Limits: Current on-prem hardware cannot handle peak load spikes effectively.

Operational Overhead: Too much engineering time spent on maintenance instead of feature development.

Data Sovereignty: Need for a reliable, compliant Russian provider (FZ-152).

Reliable Infrastructure at Scale

Selectel owns its data centers, ensuring complete control over hardware, networking, and security layers. This is not a reseller model; it is bare metal and cloud sovereignty.

6+ Data Centers

99.98% SLA

Architecture & Tools for Developers

OpenStack Core

Built on industry-standard open source to avoid vendor lock-in.

IaC Ready

Full Terraform provider support. Manage infra as code from day one.

Managed Kubernetes (K8s)

Production-grade clusters in minutes.

Free master nodes (you pay only for workers).

Integrated persistent volumes and Load Balancers.

Operational Efficiency: Managed Services vs. Self-Hosted

Using DBaaS and Managed K8s significantly reduces time spent on routine maintenance.

High-Performance Hardware

Intel Gold / Platinum Scalable Processors

High-speed NVMe storage standard

Dedicated GPU hosts for ML/AI workloads

Security & Compliance

FZ-152 Compliance (Personal Data)

PCI DSS Certified Infrastructure

ISO 27001 Information Security

Cost Optimization Strategy

Switching from CAPEX (Buying hardware) to efficient OPEX with pay-as-you-go helps us align costs with actual traffic.

Comprehensive Service Ecosystem

Object Storage (S3)

Cloud DNS

CDN

Container Registry

Migration Roadmap

1. Deploy Proof of Concept (POC) environment.

2. Benchmark performance against current production.

3. Migrate stateless apps & set up Database replication.

4. Full traffic switchover.
