KT Cloud has obtained Cloud Security Assurance Program (CSAP) certification for its self-developed next-generation infrastructure platform "KT Cloud PLATFORM" and is accelerating its push into the public cloud market. KT Cloud said on the 30th that it will fully target public and private demand with KT Cloud PLATFORM, which implements the entire process from design to development and operations with in-house technology based on global standard open-source technology.
The platform internalizes the platform and services in a Cloud-Native manner to enhance scalability and stability. In particular, it applies an architecture that reconstructs OpenStack on a Kubernetes basis to automate and standardize infrastructure operations. Server virtual machines and container environments can also be operated in an integrated way on a single platform, creating a structure that enables linkage with and integrated operation of GPU-based AI infrastructure. It also secures compatibility with global standard environments, allowing customers to use it without a separate learning burden, which is cited as a strength.
KT Cloud will also gradually expand its multi-region and multi-availability zone structure. Based on its own data centers, it plans to build a multi-region between Seoul and North Gyeongsang Province and a multi-AZ system between Yongsan and Mok-dong in Seoul to meet demand for disaster recovery and redundancy.
An Jae-seok, head of technology at KT Cloud, said, "It is the core infrastructure for converting customers' IT environments to a Cloud-Native structure," and added, "We will enhance service reliability and operational stability with multi-AZ-based high-availability infrastructure."
