Cloud Hosting
ENTERPRISE CLOUD HOSTING THE WAY YOU’VE ALWAYS WANTED
Cloud computing gives businesses of all sizes the opportunity to grow, compete, and succeed—without investing heavily in infrastructure. Not only do we offer Virtual Datacenters (VDCs) to make your job easier, we have the expertise to back you up when you need assistance. Bluelock isn’t just about products or solutions; we’re about the people behind them. Bluelock’s cloud experts can assess, deploy and manage your Virtual Datacenters hosted in the public cloud—giving your team the option to leave IT tasks behind. Or we can just be there to provide tools to help make those tasks easier.
By leveraging VMware technology, Bluelock is able to provide hosted virtual datacenters to the enterprise that are fully compatible with existing VMware investments, enabling a hybrid cloud strategy. This approach provides a common management and security model that enables complete workload portability between internal data centers and the Bluelock public cloud.

ENTERPRISE CLOUD COMPUTING

HYBRID CLOUD COMPUTING
Built on industry leading VMware virtualization technology, Bluelock Virtual Datacenters (VDCs), provides dynamic computing resources with scale, security and performance. Because our Virtual Datacenters (VDCs) are built on the same VMware technology as your private cloud environment, the move to a hybrid solution is easier and even more practical. Using brand new technologies like VMware vCloud Connector, Bluelock connects clients with the next generation of cloud capabilities provided by VMware’s vCloud Director. vCloud Connector allows current VMware clients to view and manage their existing VMware environment (their private cloud) and Bluelock’s VMware-based Virtual Datacenters in the vSphere Client control panel they already have, making the transition to public cloud even easier for existing VMware administrators. Learn more about the power of hybrid cloud computing.

DISASTER RECOVERY
Bluelock knows you don’t want to double your IT costs for an effective disaster recovery solution. It’s not practical for you to build a second data center just for your recovery environment. At the same time, if you’re going to commit precious capital to the effort, shouldn’t you be certain it’s going to work when a disaster strikes? Bluelock’s Disaster Recovery solution is cost-effective, testable and most importantly, ready when you need it most. Bluelock virtualization experts engineered a fully-testable solution that capitalizes on the scalability and recoverability of VMware. Learn more about Disaster Recovery options at Bluelock.
PRIVATE CLOUD COMPUTING
Bluelock’s Managed Private Cloud solution enables you to maintain control and maximize the security in your own isolated cloud. If you need a private cloud hosted off-site, Bluelock has a solution to cater to your needs. Bluelock’s Managed Private Cloud was designed with control and speed in mind. Time and time again clients asked for a virtual, fully-managed, and encapsulated environment but needed it to live behind their own firewall. With Bluelock this is possible. Your private cloud is installed behind your corporate firewall and on your local network with the ability to connect to Bluelock’s public cloud for extra capacity or disaster recovery.
