Frequently Asked Questions

CCP Product

Is CCP like AWS and Google Cloud?

No. CCP helps you manage resources of public cloud such as AWS, Google, and Azure, as well as private clouds using advanced infrastructure and architecture best practices.

Do I have to host my applications on CCP to use it?

Not at all. CCP can either manage your infrastructure within our elastic ecosystem or you can bring your own (BYO) devices, or you can do both. To do BYO, all you have to do is connect your cloud provider accounts, and CCP will do all the work using your own devices.

Can CCP be a single point of failure of my software application?

No, quite the opposite. CCP is designed to not be or have single point of failures (SPOF). CCP uses the most advanced infrastructure and architecture best practices which includes resiliency, scalability, security and performance which means SPOF is not an option.

How about Intellectual Property? Does CCP “own” my code base?

No. CCP does not even know what your codes look like. You own your code base, CCP only helps manage your cloud resources more efficiently.

CCP is a PaaS. How is it different from well-known PaaS like Heroku and Firebase?

Completely different. CCP is a PaaS for building and managing infrastructure without having to spend years learning infrastructure. If all you need is to deploy a blog or a simple website, CCP is not for you. However, if you are building a distributed microservices-based platform that requires resiliency, high availability, performance, and security out of the box, then CCP has you covered.

How do I start? Can I sign up online?

Yes. You can start in 3 simple steps. Please see the video (link to the video above). No need to spend hours with a sales engineer or an account manager to get it started unless you need it.

Why Cuemby?

We are experienced engineers and technologists deeply committed to building secure, performant, and reliable infrastructure using cloud-native technologies, whether you are a traditional business exploring cloud transformation or a born-in-the-cloud organization facing growth challenges.

You say CCP boosts productivity and reduces costs. Explain to me how the value I get as a customer justifies the cost.

Because cloud transformation is the new trend, Cloud Engineers, DevOps and Site Reliability Engineers are the hottest positions in the market, starting salary at approx. $120K/year and up. Unfortunately, companies struggle to find talent due to the scarcity of experienced talent. That is where CCP came to the rescue, extending the capabilities of your team up to 5x, meaning one engineer can do the work of five, that’s a $500K/year saving, nice deal, right?
