Sakura Cloud is a cloud infrastructure platform from Sakura Internet Inc., one of Japan’s established internet infrastructure providers. It gives you virtual servers, block and object storage, and networking tools with a monthly billing cap that prevents runaway costs on long-running workloads.

The service is registered on Japan’s ISMAP list, meeting government security standards that make procurement easier for public sector agencies and regulated enterprises.

Data centers in both Ishikari and Tokyo let you build setups that survive regional failures while keeping latency low for users across Japan.

S3-compatible object storage means your existing backup tools, logging systems, and client libraries work without changes, making migration from AWS or other platforms straightforward.

GPU instances speed up machine learning training, rendering, and scientific computing tasks.

10 Gbps networking handles data-heavy workloads and high-traffic communication between your servers.

The control panel has partial English translations, making it more accessible for non-Japanese users.
