Build a bare metal server with your choice of processor(s), hard drive configuration, RAM, port speed, and more.
Select the cores, storage, and RAM you need in your virtual server, and we'll deploy it in 5 to 15 minutes.
Scale your storage infrastructure on demand while controlling your costs with SoftLayer object storage.
Businesses today create unprecedented amounts of data. Storing, processing, and pulling value from that data is no easy task. These unstructured (NoSQL) big data solutions demand scalable, powerful infrastructure.
Build your big data solution on a cloud platform built to perform. Completely customize your environment or get a head start with recommended best-practices-based hardware configurations we've configured.
Big data demands scalable IT infrastructure. Traditional on-premises environments require significant capital expenditures, capacity planning, and lead-time to accommodate the massive amounts of information captured by big data applications. Use our Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) tool to compare the costs of building your big data environment in-house with building it on SoftLayer.
To see how big data companies are using SoftLayer’s cloud platform to succeed, check out the following customers’ stories:
In collaboration with Cloudera, MongoDB, Inc., and Basho, we've developed optimized hardware configurations for their big data applications. Consider these specs when you build your bare metal environment, and select your big data application in the shopping cart to have it provisioned onto your servers automatically. Once you place your order, your bare metal infrastructure will be online and ready for you in 2-4 hours.
