MacStadium Offers Large-Scale Mac Private Clouds for iOS Testing [Sponsor]

MacStadium offers Mac CI infrastructure at a scale that no one else can match. Recently ranked #44 on the Inc. 5000 list of America’s fastest growing private companies, they offer Mac private clouds for iOS testing in some of the largest startups in the world.

With new versions of iOS and macOS, there will be a lot of development and testing to get apps updated and created. MacStadium can put together a Mac cloud at the size you need. They can usually do it quicker and with less expense than doing it in-house for your company. Some benefits:

  • From a few Mac Pros to hundreds, MacStadium can scale with you quickly
  • Pure flash storage provides up to 150,000 32K IOPS at <1ms average latency
  • Three global locations to offer fast access to all your developers and testers
  • 24/7 support with unlimited Internet and network usage
  • Consolidate to a completely private network for macOS, Linux and Windows in one place

Chat with an engineer or customize your Mac Cloud on the MacStadium Private Cloud page.

Our thanks to MacStadium for sponsoring MacStories this week.
