Pie in the Sky - OnRamp Introduces Three Private Cloud Solutions
Cloud computing is the latest flavor of internet technology and the hot topic dominating tech message boards, blogs, articles and trade shows. If you don't have your infrastructure in the sky, don't feel like you've missed the boat (or, rather, the hot air balloon). Certainly, there's a lot to be gained, but also a great deal to be wary of before you make the transition - namely the security risks associated with housing your infrastructure in the proverbial sky. In a typical cloud computing implementation, your IT environment operates in the same, shared space as several other IT environments, putting your information at risk of hyperjacking (a term to describe the ability of a hacker to use access gained in one virtual environment to attack another virtual environment located on the same physical hardware by defeating the security of the hypervisor that manages the two virtual environments). OnRamp's private cloud solutions have made it possible to reap all the benefits of cloud computing without the security challenges of sharing your environment in a public cloud.
Safer and more secure than public clouds, our private cloud solutions provide the economic benefits of virtualization, the control over your own dedicated equipment and the private environment with which to run it. Using our experience building and deploying Internet applications for hundreds of companies, OnRamp creates a customized private cloud solution for each project, using dedicated hardware and software with which you retain physical control. As a Citrix, VMware and HyperV solution provider, OnRamp can create a customized private cloud solution best suited to your needs.
Today, OnRamp offers three private cloud computing platforms, each of which is completely customizable based on the needs and demands of your computing environment.
- IT Platform Private Cloud; OnRamp's IT Platform Cloud provides hardware dedicated to a single customer, utilizing a known security model. In addition to having the ability to be configured as a highly available and scalable solution, OnRamp's IT Platform Private Cloud maximizes hardware investment, performance and cost. For companies that need a secondary site for business continuity.
- Disaster Recovery/Business Continuity Private Cloud: This private cloud enables the deployment of an effective DR solution while removing the need to manage a remote environment. With all of the benefits of the IT Platform Private Cloud, this cloud environment facilitates the ability to easily and seamlessly replicate data and applications for disaster recovery purposes across geographic distances.
- High Security Private Cloud: For companies running applications requiring HIPAA, PCI or other security compliance, the High Security Cloud uses industry best practices for protection of sensitive data.
