Experience, expert support and a relentless focus on customer outcomes
Private Cloud can feel complex, especially when it comes to compliance, migration, and price. We’ve answered some of the most common queries below to help you understand how a Private Cloud can support your business.
Yes. Our Private Cloud solutions are ISO 27001 certified, Cyber Essentials accredited, and hosted in Tier 3 UK-based data centres.
We build our Private Cloud platforms around your customer requirements, and our architects will work with you to ensure your cloud environment meets your compliance requirements.
We follow a robust, proven methodology developed over the course of hundreds of migrations to minimise downtime when moving your data and applications to your new Private Cloud.
Pricing for your private cloud will be a clear, fixed monthly cost, so you'll always know what you're spending.
Our pricing is transparent and based on the cloud design, the management you need, and any additional services you require.
Because a private cloud is often designed to meet customer requirements, pricing varies based on the specified requirements.
Factors that will affect the price include the number and specifications of the servers, including CPU and RAM requirements; the storage capacity the platform requires; and the virtual or physical firewalls and networking.
Deployment times vary depending on complexity, but our solutions architects can typically design, build, and configure your Private Cloud in weeks, not months, ensuring a fast route to value.
Private Cloud hosting providers offer dedicated, single-tenant cloud infrastructure as an alternative to other hosting options, such as public cloud (like hyperscalers), Virtual Private Cloud, or on-premises platforms.
A wide range of managed service providers (MSPs) offer Private Cloud hosting, ranging from complete bespoke architectures to more 'off the shelf' packages with differing levels of performance and storage.
Private cloud computing is the use of a stand-alone, single-tenant cloud infrastructure, as opposed to the multi-tenant infrastructures of public cloud and Virtual Private Cloud.
A private cloud will have dedicated compute, storage, security and networking, usually located in a data centre but sometimes in a customer's premises.
Private clouds are often chosen by businesses that require air-gapped systems, completely physically separated from any other users.
A private cloud server is a component in a Private Cloud. The server provides compute resources to the platform in the form of CPU and RAM. It is where software is installed that manages the cloud (like virtualisation software and operating systems), and any applications run in the cloud.
The private cloud server is then connected to other elements of the cloud, such as storage and networking, to complete the Private Cloud 'stack'.
It differs from a Virtual Private Server (VPS), which is a popular form of web and application hosting that uses a single server dedicated to a single tenant but often utilises shared resources such as storage and networking.
