From Canadian Web Hosting, Private Cloud Hosting Plans Using VMware vSAN Storage

Canadian Web Hosting announced the availability of their Private Cloud Hosting plans in Canada through Canadian Cloud Hosting, giving customers instant access to enterprise grade hardware with virtualization technologies from Vmware, Inc. including enterprise ready Virtual SAN (vSAN) storage service.

Customers get true HA combined with IPv6 read Private Cloud infrastructure running on a secure backbone network across Canada that is flexible and scalable by using a high performance distributed storage system that gives customers and their users the fastest speeds possible at a fraction of the cost while maintaining a level of control unavailable in public clouds.

With every cloud hosting deployment, customers will benefit from Canada’s business environment that ensures maximum privacy for every deployment, as well as reduced costs with the Canadian dollar at an eleven-year low. All cloud servers are located in Canada and every Canadian Cloud Hosting plan including VMware Private Clouds is charged in Canadian dollars and will customers save an average of 40% on their monthly cloud spend compared to the leading US providers.

These Canadian Private Cloud Hosting plans with VMware vSAN distributed storage give customers enterprise-grade SSDs for high-performance R/W caching, in combination with HDDs for cost-effective data persistence and enterprise grade reliability. Using vSAN shared storage gives customers integrated fault tolerance and granular non-disruptive scale-up or scale-out upgrades. As more resources are brought online, customers are able to minimize potential downtime and maintain hardware independence. Unlike traditional SAN hardware that utilizes RAID, vSAN leverages RAIN (Redundant Array of Independent Nodes) and can withstand disk or host failures, maximizing redundancy and client uptime.

“Our VMware-based Private Clouds have been powering companies world-wide and with uptime nearing 100% year over year. We’ve been testing vSAN enabled deployments and the feedback we have received has been nothing short of spectacular and our customers have appreciated our efforts to build out Canadian enterprise storage while increasing focusing on ways to reduce costs that previously impacted their decision-making process. We can now offer a best-in-breed cloud storage system, low cost SSD cloud Servers, Flexible cloud resource pools and VMware’s leading virtualization platform to give our customers the flexibility and support options they need to move away from slow and expensive legacy IT infrastructure,” said Matt McKinney, chief strategy officer, Canadian Cloud Hosting.

It is easier than ever to move to 100% Canadian Cloud enterprise-grade infrastructure. Canadian Cloud Hosting is offering free migration services for any new or existing customers looking to move their existing cloud servers over to the Canadian Cloud. In addition, customers get 24/7 support, the safety and security of Canada’s privacy regulations that are certified 100% Canadian-owned and operated.
