NextiraOne Launching Cloud and DR Suites in UK

NextiraOne
LLC. has launched
dedicated cloud and DR suites in the UK.

These suites are based on the
technology platforms of Cisco, NetApp, EMC and VMware and include
managed services during their life cycle. They are be co-located at
the Equinix LD5 International Business Exchange data centre in
Slough. Announced at Cisco Live 2013 customer event, these suites
provide a combination of customised IT solutions

Customers looking to improve their
backup and BC facilities can take advantage of the company’s data
centre and IT expertise inside Equinix’s data centre. In addition,
organisations wishing to have hybrid cloud setups are placed on the
backbone of the Internet. The cloud and DR suites offer solutions
that are customer-owned, designed and implemented by NextiraOne. The suites are designed with security, networking, computing and storage
components as well as computer room power and cooling available in
Equinix’s Slough data centre.

Geraint Davies, head of business bevelopment, Data Centres, said: "For organisations that
operate customised applications in their own private computer rooms
on-site, the Cloud Suites provide great opportunities to complement
their own services with niche applications delivered by specialists
and also to offer new services for use by their customers. This leads
to a need for a hybrid infrastructure that supports core applications
privately, but also allows easy experimentation with the Cloud, and
the ability to expand this. In addition, businesses need resilient DR
computer rooms that mirror key aspects of their private facilities.
NextiraOne offers these suites to create a low risk, HA, secure and
scalable solution."

NextiraOne designs, builds, operates
and supports these systems using Unified Platforms based on Cisco,
NetApp and VMware technology. These can be deployed and scaled using
the next generation FlexPod architecture, cutting installation time,
increasing availability, improving performance of Internet-based
services and reducing risk.

The introduction of NextiraOne’s cloud
and DR suites allows enterprise and public sector customers to
combine the a secure environment, with power and cooling, whilst
keeping down the operating costs and ensuring backup is in place.
With ongoing remote managed services offered by the company, the
pressure of maintaining a consolidated DR data centre is reduced and
access to future cloud services improved.

These suites are available.
