SolveForce Core Cloud Infrastructure
Cloud (Foundations) establishes the base architecture for everything in the cloud: compute, storage, and networking delivered as scalable, elastic services. SolveForce builds cloud foundation architectures that unify public, private, and hybrid platforms with telecom-grade interconnects, compliance overlays, and evidence-driven guardrails.
Quote output: Cloud foundation design deck + platform/provider BoM + SLO guardrails + acceptance tests + compliance overlays + SIEM evidence plan.
🎯 What You Get in a SolveForce Cloud Foundations Quote
- Compute foundations— VMs, containers, serverless, GPU-ready instances.
- Storage foundations— object, block, file, backup/DR tiers with immutability options.
- Network foundations— VPC, VPN, Direct Connect/ExpressRoute, DCI, SD-WAN integration.
- Security guardrails— IAM, key management, ZTNA, cloud-native policy enforcement.
- Provider diversity— AWS, Azure, GCP, Oracle, IBM, and sovereign/regional clouds.
- SLO-based design— uptime, latency, storage durability, RPO/RTO guarantees.
- Compliance overlays— SOC2, HIPAA, PCI DSS, FedRAMP, ISO 27001.
- Acceptance plan— guardrail denies, DR restore tests, SIEM integration evidence.
🛣️ Quote Process for Cloud Foundations
- Scope & Intake (Day 0–3) — define cloud footprint (public, private, hybrid), workloads, compliance needs.
- Discovery & Supplier Graph (Day 3–10) — provider selection, regions, telecom interconnects.
- Design-to-Quote (Day 7–14) — foundation architecture, BoM, SLO guardrails, evidence mapping.
- Review & refine (Day 14–20) — optimize workloads across providers, compliance overlays.
- Finalize & order (Day 20+) — provision accounts, set guardrails, acceptance validation.
📐 Global Cloud Foundations SLO Guardrails
| Domain | KPI / SLO (p95 unless noted) | Target (typical) |
|---|---|---|
| Compute | VM/Container boot time | ≤ 30–60 s |
| Storage | Durability (object) | ≥ 11 nines |
| Networking | Cloud on-ramp latency | ≤ 2–5 ms |
| Security | IAM admit latency | ≤ 1–3 s |
| Continuity | DR restore (Tier-1) | ≤ 15 min |
| Evidence | Logs/tests → SIEM | ≤ 60–120 s |
| Compliance | Guardrail denies (public access) | = 100% |
🧪 Acceptance Evidence (Cloud Foundations-specific)
- ComputeVM/container boot logs, reproducibility checks, GPU allocation tests.
- Storagedurability proofs, immutability logs, checksum evidence.
- NetworkingVPN/Direct Connect attach times, DCI throughput logs.
- SecurityIAM admits, key/vault rotation evidence, deny-public guardrail tests.
- ContinuityDR restore screenshots, failover timings, RPO/RTO evidence.
- ComplianceSOC2/ISO/HIPAA/PCI/FedRAMP exports.
All evidence flows into SIEM/SOAR, included in your quote.

Key terms in plain language
Open a term for a concise explanation of language used on this page.
Latency
The time it takes data to travel between two points. Lower latency improves voice, video meetings, cloud applications, gaming, and other real-time services.
SD-WAN
Software-defined wide area networking. It manages multiple connections and chooses paths based on application needs, performance, and policy to improve resilience and control.
VPN
A virtual private network creates an encrypted connection across another network, commonly allowing remote users or offices to access private resources securely.
Cybersecurity
The practices and controls used to protect identities, devices, networks, applications, and data from unauthorized access, disruption, or manipulation.
Identity and Access Management (IAM)
The systems and policies that determine who a user is, what resources they may access, and how that access is authenticated and reviewed.
Cloud Computing
Computing resources—such as applications, servers, storage, or databases—delivered from remote infrastructure and scaled as requirements change.
