This high-performance enterprise capacity builds on Canadian Web Hosting’s recently announced CA Cloud service offerings and is an extension of its IT and Cloud infrastructure portfolio that includes Managed Web hosting, Cloud Servers, Advanced Networking including Anycast and their upcoming Unified Security Services.
Similar to Canadian Web Hosting’s other cloud offerings, this enhanced cloud capability gives its customers the capability to extend their private clouds and have scalable access to a pool of dedicated computing resources that deliver private cloud services without having to purchase their own physical hardware including features like vMotion, Hot Add, Fault Tolerance, Distributed Resource Scheduler (Dynamic Resource Balancing), and Data Recovery with true high-availability without the soaring IT costs. In addition, with vCenter unified management all the hosts and VMs can be controlled through a single console with aggregate performance monitoring of clusters, hosts and VMs.
With this feature set, customers are empowered to fully control their infrastructure resources, deploy VMs, utilize multiple layers of physical and logical security and get guaranteed 100% network availability SLAs. Included with any Private Cloud configuration, Canadian Web Hosting customers are able to work with and develop their own virtual data centre solution around their changing needs with one of Canadian Web Hosting’s certified VMware experts who can test various configurations and help deploy the best configuration based on the customers’ requirements.
“Enterprise companies are increasingly looking for powerful but flexible outsources solutions that will help them meet the needs of their end users with the right mix of performance, cost and support,” said Kevin Liang, Chief Technical Officer of Canadian Web Hosting.
