Private vCores run VMs within SHI’s Cloud Center on hardware dedicated to
a specific customer with capacity needs for thousands of VMs. The potential TCO
benefit of dedicated cloud infrastructure without making large capital expenditures
makes this an ideal offering for even mission-critical applications in the enterprise.
The SHI Private or “Dedicated” Cloud is based on the SHI Cloud design
in terms of security, performance and resiliency. This approach leverages the benefits
of SHI’s largest vCore Platform (capable of running 2,000+ VMs) for even the
most stringent needs of enterprise-class applications.
Delivering Infrastructure as a Service for the Enterprise
Designed by SHI Labs, the SHI Cloud Center is a secure, state-of-the-art data center
that seamlessly integrates best of breed IT to offer industrial-grade “Cloud
Infrastructure On-Demand”.
Self-Service
Customers can access the SHI Cloud Center through a self-service portal using either
SHI’s templates or templates they provide. Authorized users have the ability
to configure virtual machines (CPU, memory, storage and bandwidth), as well as select
from a wide variety of software applications by accessing a Service Catalog.
Time-Boxed Burst Computing
To address the needs associated with seasonal capacity spikes, the SHI Cloud Center
offers the ability to quickly handle these capacity fluctuations without incurring
large capital expenditures. The SHI Cloud Center loads virtual machine “gold
images” (customer-provided in advance) and installs the VMs on the customer’s
network at the appointed time.
Disaster Recovery
For customers that have their own cloud on virtualized infrastructure, the SHI Cloud
Center provides an innovative approach to disaster recovery. The SHI Cloud Center
loads the customer’s virtual machine “gold images” and installs
the VMs on the customer’s network in the event of a disaster.
