VEXXHOST Private Cloud review
A managed OpenStack private cloud with hosted and customer-facility deployment options.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
VEXXHOST Private Cloud provides dedicated OpenStack infrastructure for organizations that need control over data location, operations, and cloud architecture. It supports deployment in VEXXHOST facilities or in a customer facility, making it suitable for regulated, performance-sensitive, large-scale, hybrid, and custom infrastructure workloads. The service includes certified Kubernetes integration, OpenStack-compatible APIs and CLI access, monitoring, upgrades, and 24/7 engineering support. Customers can choose an expert-supported operating model or have VEXXHOST manage deployment, upgrades, monitoring, and incident response.
Pricing is structured around the Private Cloud plan at $750 per node per year, equivalent to $62.50 per node per month with annual billing. The plan includes a dedicated OpenStack cloud, 24/7 support, zero-downtime upgrades, monitoring, and no per-VM or license fees. The listed private-cloud price is a supported entry price, while fully managed pricing is quoted after scoping. This makes the entry point easier to understand, but teams evaluating the fully managed operating model will need a tailored commercial discussion. The pricing page states a typical entry of three nodes, so buyers should assess the required node footprint alongside the per-node rate.
Deployment flexibility is a central strength. Organizations can place the environment in VEXXHOST facilities or operate it in their own facility, while retaining OpenStack APIs and CLI access and a Kubernetes integration. VEXXHOST also covers managed deployment, monitoring, upgrades, and incident response when that operating model is selected. The trade-off is a focused OpenStack architecture: teams committed to another virtualization or cloud stack may find the service less aligned with their requirements. Choose VEXXHOST Private Cloud for managed or supported OpenStack with location control and operational assistance; consider an alternative when a different platform is the priority.
