The cloud solution enables investment in IT infrastructures to be cut by up to 73%.
Arsys, a provider of internet services, today announced that it has launched CloudBuilder in the Spanish market. The company says that the service was presented to trade specialists today at the SIMO Network 2010 event, and is now available on www.cloudbuilder.es.
The company states that CloudBuilder is a cloud hosting solution in Spain that enables customers to have their own technology infrastructures adaptable to peaks and troughs in demand, with an efficient pay-per-use system. CloudBuilder enables projects to be developed more efficiently than with conventional hosting services, as it eliminates the need to have under-used resources, thus reducing the investment entailed by technology infrastructure by up to 73%.
It further states that CloudBuilder users administer their own virtual data centre via a simple control panel that enables them to configure numerous technical resources: CPU, memory, local storage, shared storage, templates, ISO, firewall policies, IP addressing, server connectivity, load balancing groups, server grouping, back-ups, operating systems and applications. These resources are customized in small sections of elements so that users only hire those services that they actually need and not others that will then be under-used. The service is thus adjusted to fit the specific needs of each business. The CloudBuilder Privado extension enables users to choose between different levels of isolation for their virtual data centers: they can have their own, exclusive IT resources (and opt for different levels of VPN (Virtual Private Network) isolation) in their own private cloud.
The company claims that the availability of the data housed in CloudBuilder is backed up technologically by its cloud hosting platform, which uses technologies in each sector, such as the VMware vSphere cloud operating system, IBM servers, 3PAR storage containers and the company data centre, capable of handling over 15,000 servers. It avers that these technical assurances are supplemented by the company's 24/7 in-house customer service and stringent service level agreements (SLAs), which feature compensation for unavailability of up to 20 times the amount contracted. Moreover, the company's cloud hosting platform is located in Spain, and CloudBuilder complies with Spanish legislation on data protection (LOPD).
Nieves Franco, Commercial Manager of Arsys, said, "CloudBuilder enables each firm to configure its own cloud in minutes, tailored to its own needs, to launch an advertising campaign or support corporate applications. It is the solution that Spanish firms were calling out for, and it enables them to outsource their infrastructures with full guarantees and profitability and avoid having to concern themselves with technical issues unrelated to their business."
