Civo, the company reimagining cloud computing has launched FlexCore, its private cloud appliance, in UK and European markets. Flexcore offers businesses a simplified plug-and-play private cloud experience, ensuring rapid setup and seamless integration with leading public cloud providers. This gives businesses the flexibility to scale while maintaining full control over their data.
FlexCore is developed to bring the advanced functionality of a public cloud and ease of use familiar to Civo’s public cloud customers into a private cloud environment. The solution includes both hardware and software, pre-integrated for a seamless deployment experience. Users can have their private cloud up and running within minutes, with minimal setup required.
Key features of Flexcore include:
- Civo Compute: High-performance virtual machines for traditional workloads.
- Civo Kubernetes: Fully managed, CNCF-conformant Kubernetes clusters.
- Managed Databases: Scalable MySQL, PostgreSQL, and document databases.
- GPU A't eleration: Boost performance for compute-intensive applications.
- Machine Learning: Deploy AI/ML applications with Civo Kubeflow as a Service.
With digital infrastructure and AI development at the heart of the UK government’s long-term economic strategy, businesses need sovereign, scalable cloud solutions. FlexCore meets this growing demand, bringing the power of flexibility into a private environment. At the same time, there is growing hesitation around U.S.-based hyperscale cloud providers, as they are subject to the US CLOUD Act - a law that grants U.S. government agencies jurisdiction over data they host - even when stored outside of the U.S. For UK businesses prioritising data sovereignty, this raises concerns about control and compliance.
With recent UK government guidance on overseas cloud providers creating uncertainty, and new AI regulations on the horizon, organisations are looking for solutions that offer clearer guarantees around compliance, security and sovereignty.
According to Civo research, 82% of senior IT leaders plan to migrate more workloads from public cloud to private cloud within the next 12 months. Looking ahead, 85% of organisations expect to increase their private cloud investment over the next 12–18 months, with 38% anticipating significant growth in spending. Flexcore directly addresses these data privacy concerns, offering UK businesses a sovereign, secure, and high-performance private cloud solution that keeps critical data within national borders.
Mark Boost, CEO of Civo, commented: “With the government sending mixed signals on data sovereignty and the AI Bill expected later this year, companies are increasingly reassessing where their data is stored and how it’s being used. There’s a growing demand for private cloud solutions that offer security, compliance, and control - especially as businesses look to navigate new AI regulations and reduce reliance on overseas cloud providers."
"Businesses don’t want complexity - they need cloud solutions that are easy to deploy, cost-effective, and built for the way they work. Too often, private cloud has been seen as difficult to manage, requiring specialist skills and significant upfront investment. We’ve built a solution that gives UK businesses the best of both worlds - the power of public cloud but in a private, secure environment, fully under their control. Whether it’s startups, enterprises, or public sector organisations, they can now deploy a private cloud in minutes, keeping their data close while maintaining the flexibility to scale as needed."
