Hi HN!

I’m Alice, a computational geneticist and software engineer. I recently launched Carolina Cloud, a cloud service built for researchers, freelancers, and small teams who need high CPU throughput — especially for bioinformatics pipelines and ML workloads, where many algorithms are still single-threaded and don’t lend themselves well to GPU compute, despite the hype!

What makes it different:

  - 100% dedicated VMs and containers - no CPU steal
  - Up to 128 vCPUs and 512GB RAM resources
  - Pricing based on single core performance, no arbitrary "vCPU"
  - Unlimited 8Gbps bandwidth, zero egress fees
  - GPU nodes available for ML/AI experiments and hybrid pipelines
  - 7ms latency to AWS Virginia for hybrid workflows
 
Try it for free, or request up to $250 in compute credits for verified, legitimate users.

The goal isn’t to replace AWS/GCP, but to give you a flexible, affordable supplement for CPU-heavy or single-threaded or hybrid workloads. Our happiest customers have saved a lot of money on bioinformatics pipelines, credit modeling, weather simulations, and ML experiments.

If you have questions, want to try it out, or have suggestions, comment here or reach me at alice@carolinacloud.com. I’d love feedback.
