Operate your own cloud distributed (hypervisors) over a single or multiple dedicated servers. Private Clouds (hosts/servers, datastores) or resources (RAM, CPU. Disc) offered to our customers on totally dedicated on high availability infrastructures. A private Cloud also includes our infrastructure management or you can upgrade to our cloud managed services to manage as much or as little of your environment as needed. Plus, you can add any cloud option (see options is features) as a logically isolated or physically isolated resource.

    Pick your hypervisor

    We can build your private cloud and manage it on any of the following hypervisors
