Principle
ZephyCloud is the back-end service developed by ZephyScience to connect its modeling chains with the cloud-computing suppliers to perform burst cloud computing.
This allows any user of ZephyScience software to launch multiple calculations simultaneously with high calculation resources (core power), even without having access to high-performance machines internally.
Business model
The business-model of ZephyScience’s software services relies on a pay-as-you-go system.
This is charged on a cores-per-hour basis, with costs increasing with calculation time and number of processors used. The used calculation resources are charged in ZephyCoins. Amount of ZephyCoins spent during a run is depending on the user's rank (Bronze, Silver or Gold).
