Swedish cloud with unlimited possibilities

A Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is a private and isolated space within a public cloud infrastructure. It functions as a software-based data center where you can create and manage virtual machines, networks, and security components without physical hardware.

With a VPC, you can quickly and securely deploy applications – in minutes or hours instead of days or weeks.

A VPC can be used to deploy applications, run advanced websites, store and process data, run analytics and connect to local data centres. You get the scalability and flexibility of the cloud combined with the security of a traditional data center – without having to manage the physical infrastructure. This saves both time and money, allowing you to focus on your business logic while Bahnhof handles the operations.

With Bahnhof, you also get full control over your costs thanks to prepaid billing and automatic balance top-ups. You only pay for the resources you actually use, avoiding unexpected charges at the end of the month.

The flexibility and scalability of a VPC make it valuable for many industries. Here are some common use cases:

Large Enterprises
Companies with mission-critical systems use VPCs to manage databases, run large-scale analytics, and operate business applications. They can easily scale resources up or down as needed while avoiding the costs and administrative burden of physical infrastructure.

Tech Startups
For startups, a VPC is a cost-effective way to access powerful computing resources without investing in expensive hardware. Its scalability allows businesses to grow seamlessly. With Bahnhof, you can scale up or down in seconds and only pay for what you use.

E-commerce Companies
E-commerce businesses run their platforms in a VPC to manage customer data and handle traffic spikes during sales events. Stability and scalability are crucial to ensuring fast load times and a seamless shopping experience.

Healthcare and Finance
Industries with high demands for data security and confidentiality, such as healthcare and finance, use VPCs to protect sensitive information. With Bahnhof’s VPC, all data is stored in Sweden, in our own data centers, ensuring full GDPR compliance—unlike U.S.-based cloud services subject to the Cloud Act.

Research and Universities
Organizations that need to process large datasets, simulate processes, or manage research projects benefit from the flexibility and performance of VPCs. Temporary projects can be rapidly scaled up without requiring long-term investments.

Mjukvaruföretag
Utvecklings-, test- och produktionsmiljöer kan enkelt konfigureras och isoleras i ett VPC. Det gör det smidigt att replikera produktionsmiljöer och säkerställa att programvara fungerar som avsett innan lansering.

Myndigheter och offentlig verksamhet
Säkerhet och datakontroll är avgörande för myndigheter. Ett VPC ger full kontroll över data samtidigt som det möjliggör flexibel användning av molnresurser. Med Bahnhof sker all drift i Sverige, vilket garanterar efterlevnad av GDPR.

With Bahnhof VPC, you get a secure, scalable, and cost-effective solution—without compromise.

A Virtual Private Server (VPS) is a simpler version of a VPC, consisting of just a single virtual server with a public IP – nothing more, nothing less. It is easy to start with and suitable for individuals and businesses with low requirements or limited technical expertise.

With a VPC, you get a more advanced and feature-rich solution with superior flexibility and scalability. If a VPS is equivalent to a single server in a data center, a VPC is the entire data center. The number of instances is unlimited.

While a VPS may seem simple and straight-forward at first, it is extremely limited. The long-term benefits of VPC are enormous. With a VPC, you are not only preparing for your current needs, but future-proofing your company’s digital infrastructure.

VPCs are for businesses that want to utilise the full potential of the cloud, whether they are a growing start-up or an established company.
