Who is the platform suitable for?
Public sector, retail, fintech, industry, telecom, and more.
General positioning
The Shturval platform targets enterprise deployments: many clusters, heterogeneous infrastructure, strict security requirements, and regulatory compliance. A Community version is also available for small teams.
Below are typical use cases by industry.
Public sector and government information systems
Tasks:
- building fault-tolerant, secure systems for critical information infrastructure (CII) and government information systems (GIS);
- compliance with requirements from the Ministry of Digital Development, FSTEC, and other regulatory frameworks;
- deployment on domestic virtualization platforms and operating systems.
How Shturval helps:
- Kubernetes cluster management on Russian virtualization platforms and operating systems;
- built-in security tools and integration with overlay security products;
- support for fully closed loops without Internet access.
Retail and e-commerce
Tasks:
- deploying modern application systems (e-commerce platforms, WMS, SCM, and so on);
- supporting predictive ML models based on data;
- rapid hypothesis testing and A/B tests.
How Shturval helps:
- a scalable microservices platform with autoscaling;
- hybrid and multi-cloud deployments;
- a convenient GUI and GitOps-based application delivery.
Banks and fintech
Tasks:
- building high-traffic remote banking systems (online banking, mobile applications);
- compliance with regulatory requirements (CII protection law, PCI DSS, banking secrecy);
- deploying anti-fraud solutions and big data analytics systems.
How Shturval helps:
- fault-tolerant clusters with autoscaling;
- comprehensive security and audit capabilities;
- integration with existing infrastructure and security tools.
Industry and manufacturing
Tasks:
- deploying and training ML models on GPU;
- edge computing and data analysis close to equipment;
- building MES/SCADA systems and industrial IoT.
How Shturval helps:
- support for GPU clusters and HPC scenarios;
- flexible infrastructure options (on-premises, edge, hybrid);
- monitoring and logging suited to industrial environments.
Telecom and telecom operators
Tasks:
- building telco cloud platforms;
- network functions virtualization (NFV);
- support for very high traffic volumes and low latency.
How Shturval helps:
- support for DPDK, SR-IOV, and high-speed networking scenarios;
- flexible network stack configuration (CNI, network policies, egress configurations);
- management of many clusters across distributed infrastructure.
Small teams and projects
Even without dozens of clusters, the platform can be useful:
- a free Community version with a worker node limit;
- a quick way to build a full platform for development and testing;
- smooth scaling and transition to an enterprise license as load and requirements grow.
