What if you could take your current IT infrastructure that you are familiar with and make it more flexible, more productive, and more powerful – all for less money than you’re currently spending?
CeraNet can help.
What is Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is the on-demand delivery of applications as standardized IT services. Today, there are primarily two models for providing and consuming cloud services, collectively referred to as IT as a Service: Public Cloud Solutions and Private Cloud Solutions.
- A private cloud is a set of computing resources that is dedicated to an organization which are primarily used in high security applications with complicated regulatory requirements.
- A public cloud involves computing resources that are shared with multiple organizations and dynamically provisioned and billed on a utility basis – pay for what you use as you use it.
Benefits of the Cloud
Pooled Resources: Cloud Computing uses virtualization as a foundation and then adds to it by pooling the resources together and allowing you to dynamically provision and scale applications. CeraNet adds an easy to use control panel so you can change these resources as you need, when you need.
Self Service: Provides self-service IT infrastructure to business units and departments with our 100% up-time guarantee SLA, removing the burden to procure, provision and manage infrastructure on a per-application, ad-hoc basis.
Elastic: Scale up (or scale down) dynamically as resource needs change, enabling faster delivery of capacity, all through a single control panel.
Usage Based: Pay for only what you use, when you need to use it.
Cloud computing delivers three primary benefits: Focus, Agility and Economics.
Without having to worry about the underlying infrastructure, you can free resources to focus on more strategic initiatives. Agility means you can now deliver applications more quickly to your users and customers while also responding to changes in demand. Cloud economics are simple. By running multiple workloads on the same overall infrastructure, you get better utilization across your applications and because the Cloud pools these resources, you can buy broader sets of resources at one time, lowering the overall cost.
CeraNet believes the private cloud is going to be the transformational improvement to corporate computing.
The Private Cloud: Cloud Dedicated to You
The Private Cloud gives you the added benefits of a high level of customization, which provides you with the control that enterprises need to address regulatory, privacy and compliance requirements that wouldn’t be possible with the globally shared resources of Public Cloud services.
Why we use a Private Cloud Solution Using the Microsoft Platform:
All about the App: We can tell you what is going on with the application, enabling you to manage and act on the application service when something goes wrong. This level of insight is critical for IT systems management to provide reliable services to the business.
Cross Platform from the Metal Up: The benefit of a cross platform approach is that you can use current systems and applications built on a Linux or IBM WebSphere platform and easily tie them into our cloud platform.
Best In Class Performance: Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V™ is a significant step forward and is completely compatible with all server software.
Cloud On Your Terms: We believe it’s going to be a hybrid world. Your investments are likely going to be distributed across physical, virtual and cloud computing models. We want to support you at every step in your journey to the cloud.
