Outsource your infrastructure

Combine the ease of use and scalability of managed hosting with the control of an in-house datacenter—without the headaches of power, cooling, hardware, and IT support. With the UFBS Private Dedicated Cloud you can shift the burden of managing the virtualization infrastructure to UFBS, and focus on what matters most to your business.

By leveraging our best of breed cloud infrastructure architecture UFBS provides an enterprise-class solution at a reduced cost while giving you access to massively scalable resources when needed.

Enable business continuity

Recovering from disasters is a key business priority. You can ensure that business-critical data and processes are secured, and that unplanned downtime is minimized. This means restoring your IT infrastructure, data availability, operational processes, and business processes.

With the Business Continuity Cloud© solution, your backup infrastructure is always in place—standing by for when you need it. You can run and restore business applications in addition to restoring data access—reducing the impact on your customers and partners.

Put your desktop in the cloud

The UFBS Business Cohesion Cloud© solution puts your desktop environment in the cloud, alongside your applications servers—closing the loop between your desktops and your datacenter. It provides a unified platform that integrates desktop PCs, laptops, netbooks, and other devices with hosted servers, data, and services.

Reduce your TCO

A major reason companies are embracing an outsourced cloud infrastructure solution is the significant reduction of capital expenditures. With the Private Dedicated Cloud you pay a predictable monthly operational cost for dedicated resources that enable IT efficiencies across your organization.

For example, the cost of maintaining standby backup infrastructure and geographically diverse storage for disaster recovery is lessened because you can utilize UFBS cloud infrastructure across North America and EMEA. And by eliminating management of physical hardware, your IT staff can focus on more strategic projects that can drive business success.

Make your IT green

Datacenters already consume more than 100 billion kW of electricity, costing $7.2 billion annually. As that consumption doubles in the next few years, so will the millions of tons of carbon already emitted by coal-powered plants. Adopting a cleaner, greener, and more efficient Private Dedicated Cloud is good for your bottom line, the environment, and your company’s reputation.
