Our Story

From a home lab experiment to enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure

DadsCloud began in 2024 as a passion project in a spare bedroom, born from the frustration of expensive cloud services and the lack of affordable learning environments for students and developers in India. What started as a personal home lab for experimenting with virtualization technologies evolved into a mission to democratize access to professional cloud infrastructure.

The name "DadsCloud" reflects our grassroots beginning - like a dad building something practical and reliable in his garage, we built our platform with hands-on dedication, attention to detail, and genuine care for our users' success. Every component was carefully selected, every configuration thoughtfully planned, and every feature designed with real user needs in mind.

The Dual Vision

We recognized a gap in the market: enterprises needed reliable, cost-effective hosting with local data sovereignty, while students and developers needed flexible, affordable environments for learning and experimentation. Traditional cloud providers offered either expensive enterprise solutions or basic hobby plans - nothing in between.

Our hybrid model was born from this insight. By offering both monthly enterprise hosting and hourly learning labs, we could serve production workloads while supporting the next generation of developers. The DadsPoints system makes cloud infrastructure accessible to students who might not have credit cards or steady income, while our enterprise plans provide the reliability businesses need.

Today, DadsCloud powers applications for businesses across India while providing learning environments for thousands of students and developers. We've maintained our founding principles: transparency in pricing, genuine support from real people, and infrastructure you can trust with your most important projects.

Mission & Vision
