About KSOM Datacenter
Open-Source Hybrid Cloud

Founded by infrastructure engineers. We build open-source, no-lock-in cloud with hands-on support.

Engineers first.
Cloud without compromise.

KSOM Datacenter was created by infrastructure engineers who have spent decades designing, scaling, and operating mission-critical systems.

In 2025, we partnered with Digital Ignition to expand our data center capabilities in Alpharetta, GA, and build our first active zone (Zone1). With this foundation, we're creating a platform that blends cloud and on-premise flexibility, powered entirely by open-source technologies.

Our mission is simple:
To deliver hybrid, open-source cloud infrastructure that scales with your business — without vendor lock-in, hidden costs, or unreliable support.

Our Principles

  • Open-source first – No proprietary traps, just freedom and transparency.
  • Hybrid by default – Run VMs, GPUs, and your own hardware side-by-side.
  • Transparency over complexity – Clear pricing, clear design, clear communication.
  • Human support, not ticket mazes – Real engineers, ready to solve real problems.

Our Experience

  • 28+ years in Network / Hyperscaling / Infrastructure
  • 24+ years in Software Development
  • Proven expertise in data centers, distributed systems, and DevOps
  • Hands-on knowledge from startup scaling to enterprise-grade cloud
