Managed, High Availability Virtual Machines

Choose a Virtual Server on either VMware or Hyper-V

Our high-availability, Infrastructure-as-a-Service platform (IaaS) offers our clients complete flexibility, performance and control in a scalable and cost effective purchasing model. Because we have options to use either VMware or Hyper-V hypervisor platforms, we can scope a tailored solution, whether that be full high availability, production VMware ESX virtual machine, or a lower cost, single Hyper-V VM

The benefits of this to our customers is that we are essentially offering a small private cloud hosting server, which may commence with a single low-cost VM plus some hosted SAN storage, right through to large infrastructure arrays, with many VM's and terabytes of storage, plus other ISO27001 security features. Benefits to our customers include;

  • low cost entry point with hosted VMWare or hosted Microsoft Hyper-V virtualization services
  • inside a genuine Tier 3 data centre, with all services duplicated for redundancy
  • connected with the best RAID 5 or RAID 10 hosted SAN options
  • a wide variety of data services and hosted internet, peering or VLAN, and related services
  • Dedicated or shared firewall, hosted DDOS protection or Intrusion prevention services (IPS)
  • Hosted Linux or Microsoft Windows Server environment
  • Managed Virtual servers should you desire that
  • 24 hour technical support and dedicated NOC for customers to call.
  • Procedures, software and engineers are up-to-date with the latest in security software and security management techniques.
Our Infrastructure-as-a-Service platform could be used for Disaster Recovery services for your business offering you a scaled down version of your production environment. BlueCentral operates out of data centres in Sydney and Melbourne meaning this service could be for existing customers using one of our sites for their production environment, or for those businesses hosting internally who require disaster recovery options externally.

Virtual Servers for Hosted Disaster Recovery or Hosted SaaS Application Development

Many of our customers want more certainty than they would normally obtain from a normal shared hosting service or VPS service and chose our hosted virtual servers or VM service instead - for the simple reason we will guarantee availability of the service with an SLA or SLG, plus rebates in the unlikely event that our service fails. This is ideal for the software test and development environment or as simple DR or backup. This type of managed hosting service is a far cry from a cheap "no guarantees" VPS option.

VS Hosting, moving to Dedicated Managed servers or Hosted Private Cloud Services

Naturally, if you wish to migrate your virtual servers to physical servers at a later day, or build a hybrid managed private cloud environment, then the  Virtual Environment (VE) can be simply migrated as your needs grow (or decline). We can also build these in multiple locations or as fully HA or HAaaS (HA as a Service) environments, with the high-availability hosting elements all included for you.

Agile Hosting - VE Hosting including VPS Hosting

When compared with the cost savings of implementing, operating and managing your own systems, selecting BlueCentral to manage the security of your overall Virtual Environment, hosted infrastructure, including virtual servers, VMS or VPS creates an environment where business focus can be directed towards growth, not security management.

Virtual Environment (VE) Hosting also includes virtual firewalls and virtual switch services at your request.

Overall, this enables our clients to obtain truly agile hosting services - quick, simple, effective and cost efficient.
