Descriptiontext

FluidCloud, Inc. is a private cloud infrastructure software company founded in 2024 and headquartered in Pleasanton, California, with an additional engineering office in Hyderabad, India. The company sells the Cloud Cloning Platform, a patented infrastructure-as-code system that scans an enterprise's existing cloud environments, reverse-engineers them into portable Terraform definitions, and clones, migrates, restores, or remaps those environments across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, VMware, Nutanix, Vultr, and OVH Cloud without manual rebuilds or production downtime. The platform addresses vendor lock-in, VMware exit, multi-cloud management, disaster recovery, and compliance drift, and is sold through enterprise direct sales plus channel partnerships with the Vultr Cloud Alliance and global systems integrators.

The company's product portfolio centers on the Cloud Cloning Platform and the Large Infrastructure Model (LIM), a purpose-built AI engine launched in March 2026 that generates, translates, and validates Terraform across heterogeneous cloud environments. LIM supports 150-plus resource types, ships with 1,800 compliance policies covering SOC 2, GDPR, and HIPAA, and exposes capabilities including compatibility scoring, multi-cloud cost comparison, outage prediction, compliance drift monitoring, and cloud matchmaking. FluidCloud holds nine granted patents and five pending applications covering the cloning and mapping technology. Customers named in public materials include Western Digital, Atlassian, AT&T, Vultr, and OVH Cloud.

FluidCloud operates a subscription SaaS model with quote-based enterprise pricing that is not publicly disclosed. The company emerged from stealth in July 2025 with $8.1 million in seed funding led by Unusual Ventures with participation from U First Capital, and was founded by Sharad Kumar (CEO) and Harshit Omar (CTO), who previously co-founded Acurix, a cloud security startup acquired by Tenable. The company employs 11-50 people and pursues a hybrid go-to-market combining direct enterprise field sales with channel partners, GSI/MSP alliances, and major industry event presence.

It supports AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI, and Nutanix, and is available now in the FluidCloud platform and AWS Marketplace.Intelligent CIOWhy most enterprises are running multiple clouds but aren’t actually multi-cloud ready – Intelligent CIO North AmericaSharad Kumar, co-founder and CEO of FluidCloud, argues that most enterprises are not truly multi-cloud ready, with 90 to 95% of workloads on a single provider. He says migration tools stop at the policy, networking, identity and configuration layer, and that general-purpose AI fails to generate correct infrastructure code. He says portability, not migration, is the real benefit.National TodayAI Startup FluidCloud Launches Large Infrastructure Model for Multicloud NetworkingFluidCloud, a Pleasanton, California-based AI startup, has launched a Large Infrastructure Model (LIM) designed to automate the translation of Terraform code across multicloud environments, addressing a key challenge in cloud migration that typically requires months of manual work. The company emerged from stealth in July 2025 with $8.1 million in seed funding. This tool could enable faster, safer cloud migrations for organizations leveraging multiple cloud providers.GlobeNewswireFluidCloud Unveils the World’s First Large Infrastructure Model (LIM)FluidCloud launched its Large Infrastructure Model (LIM), the first multi-cloud-ready infrastructure-as-code generator with 99%+ accuracy. The model enables cross-cloud Terraform migration, compliance drift shielding, and cost comparison. It is now generally available.Network WorldFluidCloud’s Large Infrastructure Model targets the multicloud networking gapFluidCloud, a Pleasanton, California-based AI startup that emerged from stealth in July 2025 with $8.1 million in seed funding, is launching its Large Infrastructure Model (LIM), a purpose-built AI engine for generating, translating, and validating Terraform across multicloud environments. The platform expands coverage to 150-plus resource types across cloud providers, includes 1,800 compliance policies out of the box, and scores 0.58 on BLEU benchmark (0.60 represents human-level performance). The company plans to add an agent builder for custom infrastructure workflows via MCP and portable SDKs that abstract cloud provider APIs.InfoWorldWhy cloud migration needs a new approachAn IT leader and researcher argues that current cloud migration tools—including cloud-native offerings from hyperscalers, infrastructure-as-code solutions, and governance platforms—fail to deliver true infrastructure portability, leaving IT teams with extensive manual work. Gartner projects that over 50% of multicloud or cross-cloud efforts will not meet expected benefits by 2029 due to poor interoperability and fragmentation. The author proposes "Cloud Cloning," a new approach developed with colleagues at FluidCloud, as a solution that addresses these legacy shortcomings through a wholly new method of cloud infrastructure portability.InfoWorldCloud Cloning: A new approach to infrastructure portabilityThe author argues that existing cloud infrastructure portability solutions—including infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform, cloud-native migration services, and governance offerings—fail to adequately address the complexity of cross-cloud migrations, capturing only 10–30% of source infrastructure. The author presents Cloud Cloning, a methodology developed at FluidCloud, which allegedly captures 60% or more of cloud infrastructure through comprehensive API scanning, automatically translates configurations between cloud providers via patented mapping technology, and delivers results as Terraform code while also addressing finops optimization and configuration drift management.FluidcloudFluidCloudFluidCloud has emerged from stealth with $8.1 million in seed funding led by Unusual Ventures to launch its first Cloud Cloning™ solution for portable infrastructure.
