Simple, Scalable, Affordable Utility Computing

What could you build if you had dead-simple access to nearly unlimited computer processing power? At CPUsage, we think compute power should be a utility. Easily consume as much as you want, where you want, how you want, and at incredibly low prices.

CPUsage delivers dead-simple, highly scalable and cost-effective cloud computing resources to companies with massive computing needs. We do this through CirrusGrid, a powerful platform that allows developers to focus on consuming compute power at scale, not managing it. We do this in part by harnessing the unused compute power of idle computers.

CPUsage was founded in 2011 and is headquartered in Portland, Oregon.
