High performance active-active cloud with built-in disaster recovery.
Built by our VMWare cloud specialists and hosted in our Manchester data centres, our cloud platform uses VMware vSAN stretched cluster technology to provide constant, sub-millisecond replication between two identical platforms, in two separate locations.
With automatic failover and an RTO/RPO of near zero, our cloud platform gives you built-in disaster recovery, as standard.
Deploy and configure your own cloud servers within a dedicated, secure, high performance and flexible resource pool allocated to your organisation. A flexible commercial model means you only pay for the resources you need, with unlimited capacity available on demand, removing the need for you to futureproof and pay for unused capacity ‘just in case’.
Our cloud hosting is active-active out of the box, helping you to simplify in the event of a site failure. And because we own and manage the physical data centre, we can guarantee the uptime.
