Cloud Infrastructure Without the Operational Overhead

Drasken Cloud is an upcoming managed cloud and application platform being developed by Drasken Labs to help businesses deploy, operate and monitor production workloads without having to manage every layer of infrastructure themselves.

Introduction

We’re building the cloud layer around the application

Running an application in production involves much more than providing compute.

Teams have to think about deployment, networking, storage, DNS, TLS, monitoring, logs, backups, resource management and operational incidents.

Drasken Cloud is being designed to bring these capabilities together into a managed platform, so teams can focus more of their engineering effort on the applications they are building.

The problem

Running production software gets complicated

  • Infrastructure management

    Applications need compute, networking, storage and other components configured and maintained.

  • Deployment operations

    Releasing applications repeatedly adds overhead when deployment is manual or fragmented.

  • Production visibility

    Without metrics, logs, monitoring and alerts, it is hard to see what is happening in production.

  • Operational complexity

    As applications grow, teams manage more infrastructure — often without a dedicated platform team.

What Drasken Cloud is

A managed platform for production workloads

Drasken Cloud is being designed as a managed infrastructure and workload platform that combines compute, application deployment, storage, networking and operational visibility.

  • Compute

    Resources for running applications and services.

  • Managed workloads

    A simpler way to deploy and operate containerized applications.

  • Storage

    Persistent storage and backups for applications that need stateful infrastructure.

  • Observability

    Metrics, logs, monitoring and alerts for application and infrastructure health.

Platform engineering

Infrastructure designed as a product

Drasken Cloud is being developed with platform engineering principles in mind: standardized workloads, repeatable infrastructure, operational visibility and sensible defaults for teams deploying production software.

Our platform engineering practice
Observability

Visibility built into the platform

Production infrastructure should not be a black box. Drasken Cloud is being designed with observability as part of the platform, rather than something added after deployment.

  • Metrics

    Infrastructure and workload performance signals.

  • Logs

    Application and infrastructure events.

  • Alerts

    Operational conditions that need attention.

  • Dashboards

    Centralized views of system health.

Designed for

Who we’re building Drasken Cloud for

  • Startups

    Teams that need production infrastructure without building a platform team too early.

  • SaaS companies

    Product teams running web applications, APIs and multi-service workloads.

  • Development teams

    Engineers who want a simpler path from application code to a running production workload.

  • Businesses

    Organizations that need managed infrastructure and operational support without running every layer in-house.

Why we’re building it

Built from our own engineering experience

Drasken Labs works across software engineering, cloud infrastructure, DevOps and observability. Drasken Cloud is an extension of that work: a platform designed around the infrastructure and operational problems we repeatedly encounter when building and running production software.

Development status

Currently in development

Upcoming

We’re currently building and validating the platform before opening it to customers.
