Your workloads vary, and our cloud is built to handle it. With both standard x86 for Windows & Linux and IBM’s Power Systems, we offer the unique ability to host your existing workloads as well as future growth, built on same tried-and-true hardware as your AIX or IBM i (OS/400) systems. This flexibility, combined with the Power8’s high performance, you can support the high margins that sustain a profitable business. With the new IBM Power8 Systems, we offer substantially more compute power at the same price point as our competition.

Networking is a critical component to cloud infrastructure, and network security is even more important to ensure your systems are secure. The KeyCloud™ network is built to survive by leveraging the latest generation of network routers, switches, and firewalls to ensure peak performance and adhere to the highest industry security standards. With a fully redundant architecture at every level our network ensures that no individual component failure turns into service failure and that maintenance windows are a thing of the past. The KeyCloud™ dark fiber backbone allows for terabits of bandwidth ensuring nearly limitless growth and capacity.

Built from technologies originally developed for IBM’s enterprise-class storage systems, our storage solutions benefit from a comprehensive set of high-end features. Beginning with complete redundancy, such as battery-backed load balancing controllers, multi-tiered RAID configurations, and fully redundant Fiber Channel fabrics; this is storage that will always be online. A flash optimized tier fronting the disk arrays ensures that performance is never an issue with the ability to handle over 200k IOPS at sub-microsecond latency, and all fully automated so lightning-quick performance is available at your fingertips with no additional engineering required!  

We own our own data centers. When other IaaS providers lease data center facilities from third parties, the liabilities and responsibilities for service performance and outages become vague, and you get caught in the middle. We offer total redundancy, from multiple power sources and multiple backup power systems, to multiple ISP’s and networking devices. No single points of failure, no excuses!

KeyCloud™ DRaaS is a complete service that ensures your business is “Always On,” even in the event of disaster. Unlike managing your own secondary site, KeyCloud™ DRaaS eliminates the cost of an off-premise location, infrastructure, and personnel by offering a full suite of customizable solutions from “cold” to active/active replication for your business in our secured KeyCloud datacenters.

For our clients with IBMi (formerly OS/400, iSeries, i5/OS), we offer a solution that leads the industry in high availability and disaster recovery. Proven in the market for more than 16 years, KeyCloud™ virtually eliminates downtime and data loss through replication between physical, virtual, and cloud environments, empowering infrastructure choice and flexibility.

For clients with Linux and Windows systems, KeyCloud™ offers a robust solution and innovative technologies which easily allows you to not only to failover and fail-back, but allows for DR testing in mere minutes. Unlike all other DR applications, ours is easy to implement. You can have your systems replicating into KeyCloud™ DRaaS in as little as a few hours. KeyCloud™ DRaaS comes with a full-featured testing suite to allow non-disruptive DR tests of your production environment. Finally, KeyCloud™ DRaaS can guarantee Recovery Time and Point Objectives (RTO & RPO) within minutes, not hours or days.

KeyCloud™ BRaaS is a backup and recovery solution which provides a complete service that manages your entire backup and data restoration process. Clients will receive backup status reports and monthly operational and capacity reports, but no further involvement is required.

KeyCloud™ BRaaS includes the automated storage of a second copy of the data, which is held for redundancy and security. All backups are AES-128 or AES-256 bit in flight and at rest that meet or exceed regulatory standards and ensure you stay within compliance.

Your backups can be used as part of a DR strategy for restoration into KeyCloud™ in the event of a disaster. Alternately, clients can opt-in for our DRaaS, which allows for virtual servers to be backed up and brought on-line at one of KeyCloud™ DRaaS datacenters and run as long as necessary. Finally, KeyCloud™ BRaaS offers data archiving for less frequently accessed data (defined per client) which is archived and retained at a lower cost.

The biggest advantage to our BRaaS offering has over other providers, is that we offer customized solutions to meet your needs. We work with our clients to ensure we are providing the best solution for them and not some cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all solution.
