A Cloud WHERE PHYSICAL AND VIRTUAL STORAGE ARE TOGETHER AT LAST
Not all Cloud solutions are the same so how do you know which one is right for your business now and in the future? NTT Communications ICT Solutions (NTT ICT) has designed a Cloud that allows you to easily manage multiple providers with the capacity to scale quickly and without the need for restrictive long-term contracts. NTT ICT makes Cloud easy for you. Your challenges Multiple Clouds Problem: Managing and maintaining a collection of different and disparate public, private and hybrid Cloud environments. Solution: NTT ICT s Cloud solution allows full oversight of your multiple public Cloud providers, NTT ICT private Cloud solution, and existing physical infrastructure. This gives you one management solution for all of your Cloud storage. You need to increase capacity quickly Problem: Your storage needs are about to exceed your primary Clouds capacity and you need to rectify the situation quickly. Capacity may be needed for new patches, a new application launch, a larger-than-expected backup, or extra databases. You could implement a new Cloud using a credit card quite quickly but you d like to stay with one provider who takes security and management of your business-critical systems seriously. Solution: NTT ICT s Cloud allows you to build an entirely new Cloud platform - network and all - while maintaining the integrity of your security and change processes. We can get you up and running quickly. You need a business-critical system in the Cloud but only short-term Problem: You have a short-term project that requires a secure and stable Cloud implementation. You don t want to go through a long negotiation process, get locked into a long-term contract, or make a trade-off between security and convenience. Solution: With NTT ICT s Cloud solution, the minimum contract term is just 1 month, giving you more freedom to make the changes you need when you need them without penalties. NTT ICT provide the level of security that you need, meet data sovereignty requirements and provide support from qualified engineers (not a call centre) when you need help. You have applications running on different hypervisors Problem: You need to run disparate hypervisor environments but seem to be locked in to choosing just one. Solution: NTT s platform is designed to support VMware vsphere and physical resources, with additional hypervisor support on the roadmap. We can quickly and easily extend your existing legacy network into our Cloud environment by leveraging softwaredefined networking technology. We make Cloud easy for you Decide how you want it You can consume this as a Platform as a Service offering managed to the hardware layer or managed to the hypervisor layer and manage your own operating systems, or you can let us manage it for you to free up time and resources. You can also choose fully dedicated blades or virtual resources added as needed. Innovate quickly Leveraging Cloud solutions allows you to innovate quickly and cost-effectively. With our Cloud, you can quickly test new solutions, utilise development platforms and move data from other Clouds without the need to purchase additional hardware. Easy to use front-end customer portal Our platform uses the latest in VMware NSX orchestration technology to support rapid deployment of new virtual and physical resources. Adaptive Cloud presents an easy to use customer portal allowing you to view and manage your available resources. Connecting to existing environments is made easy with the use of comprehensive API tools. Cost-effective We listen to what our customers want and offer a flexible modular pricing strategy so you know exactly what costs you have signed up for. With extra flexibility around physical and virtual servers on the one platform and on disparate hypervisors, you can mix and match to only pay for the services you need. Security is our priority All of our Cloud services come with a stringent security framework. Our Cloud platforms are inherently secure by design and with various add-on security services available, we can tailor our services to meet your exact security and compliance requirements. High availability Our services are not only safe, they re highly available with 24x365 monitoring. If issues should ever arise, our experienced and highly skilled engineers will assist you promptly and effectively. Tier 3 data centre Our state of the art, carrier-neutral data centres offer exceptional reliability and security. Integrate existing infrastructure and private Cloud solutions seamlessly into our Cloud environment. By leveraging the capabilities of VMware NSX s software and adding private WAN interconnect and/or private cross-connect capabilities, we can extend your existing physical network into our Cloud, allowing for seamless extension of your compute capacity as required. NTT ICT s Cloud presents an easy to use customer portal allowing you to view and manage your available resources.
What can I use it for? features Compute + storage Standard storage deployment With our flexible modular pricing strategy, we can provide a mixture of fast and slow disk storage depending on your requirements. Utility storage You can utilise this platform for fixed cost storage (without compute) to manage your data growth. Host production and non-production environments This solution is ideal for hosting of business critical applications, or as a DR target for an existing implementation. Multiple Cloud management NTT ICT s portal and orchestration system provides visibility over a number of public Cloud providers, allowing you to provision resources both locally and into global public Cloud solutions when required. Storage flexibility Choose from different storage options tailored to your specific requirements. Storage options include: 3PAR-based storage, tiered as Performance and Capacity. Performance disk is built on SSD optimized SAS drives. Typically used for VM operating system partitions, high-performance applications and database partitions. Capacity disk is built on high-capacity SATA drives Typically used for large-capacity file systems, archive locations, etc. NTT ICT Utility storage, designed to deliver NFS or CIFS partitions. Mix and match to suit your specific application and performance requirements. Category Service Menu Detail Unit Service Guarantee Compute Computing Resource Pool What can I use it for?
