Private Cloud

Private Cloud “Made in Germany” — Sovereign, Secure, Available at All Times

Maximum control, security, and performance—GRASS-MERKUR operates your private cloud in a certified data center in Germany.

Private Cloud Services

Your Cloud. Your Rules. Full Control in German Data Centers.

Today, cloud solutions must do two things at once: scale flexibly and meet the highest standards for data protection, security, and compliance.

When it comes to business-critical applications, sensitive data, or regulated industries, a public-cloud-only solution quickly reaches its limits.

With GRASS-MERKUR’s Private Cloud Services, you get a dedicated cloud infrastructure in Germany, customized to your specific needs. This allows you to combine modern cloud technologies with full control over your data, systems, and operational processes—for a reliable, secure IT infrastructure in a highly available German data center environment.

Private Cloud

Why a Private Cloud?

A private cloud is ideal for companies that need maximum control over their IT infrastructure but don’t want to sacrifice the flexibility of a cloud.

It is particularly well-suited for companies that process sensitive data, must comply with regulatory requirements, or want to securely operate business-critical systems.

Flexible Cloud Services

A Sovereign Cloud for Sensitive Data

Digital sovereignty means retaining control over data, infrastructure and operational dependencies.
Our private cloud helps companies run critical data and applications in a trusted environment — with clearly defined operating models, transparent responsibilities and high security standards.

This is particularly relevant for industries such as:

  • Finance and insurance
  • Healthcare
  • Public administration
  • Manufacturing
  • Critical infrastructure
  • Research and education
  • IT and software companies

Custom Cloud Architecture

Architecture with Tailored Control

No two IT environments are alike. That is why we develop private cloud architectures tailored to your applications, processes and security requirements.

In doing so we take into account:

  • Existing systems
  • Workload requirements
  • Performance goals
  • Compliance requirements
  • Backup and recovery strategies
  • Network connections
  • Future scalability


The result is a private cloud that not only works technically but also fits your corporate strategy in the long term.

Managed Cloud Services

Managed Private Cloud

Upon request, we can take over the complete operation of your private cloud environment—from monitoring, patch and security management, and backup and recovery to performance optimization, capacity and lifecycle management, and regular reporting. This takes the burden off your internal IT teams while ensuring secure, stable, and professional operations.

In combination with hybrid and multi-cloud models, we seamlessly integrate your private cloud with existing on-premises systems, public cloud platforms, and other cloud services—resulting in a flexible overall architecture where each application runs where it is best suited in terms of security, performance, and cost-effectiveness.
