Introduction

OffsiteCloud leverages the industry’s leading desktop virtualization platform and the only purpose-built solution for delivering desktops as a secure managed service. OffsiteCloud provides the platform, management tools and rich user experience that organizations need to reduce costs, streamline administration and increase end-user satisfaction.

Overview

The OffsiteCloud service gives you unprecedented power and control over a high-availability cloud computing infrastructure. Our superior cloud computing architecture, rich feature-set and intuitive web console gives you access to exceptional processing power at a price that’s well within your budget, on demand and at the click of a button.

Pay only for what you use

Spin servers and desktops up in minutes. Leverage fully integrated network, security, and load-balancing features to build your environment, and manage your infrastructure using our full-featured console. We offer training on creation, configuration, and management of servers, desktop, and infrastructure (switches & firewalls) in the cloud.

Features

Fully Redundant Architecture:
OffsiteCloud provides a dedicated hosting platform for server co-location with redundancies at every level, from physical infrastructure to switching fabric. Our clustered hypervisor architecture with dynamic resource balancing ensures high performance and availability, even in the case of physical device failure or an entire datacenter outage.

Web-Based Management Console:
Our full-featured Web Console allows you to create and configure servers with unmatched ease. Full network and security functionality is included, and our simple interface allows you to logically organize your infrastructure however you want to see it.

Flexible, Reconfigurable Computing Configurations:
Need more RAM, more storage or additional processors on your database server? With OffsiteCloud you can add and remove resources on the fly, giving unparalleled elasticity at the virtual machine level.

Server Cloning:
Server cloning gives you the ability to make a carbon copy of any server, providing a powerful tool for bulletproof recovery, development version control, or rapid deployment of additional capacity into load-balanced web farms.

Persistent Virtual Machines:
Unlike the competition, our virtual servers don’t disappear when you shut them down; your server and data stay intact until you need them.

Integrated Firewalls:
Firewalls are part of the solution. Simply open or close ports from the web interface.

Console Access:
Our integrated console function is like plugging a keyboard and monitor directly into the back of the cloud. Reconfigure network settings, watch your machine boot and perform other under-the-hood network management functions.

Comprehensive Choice of Operating Systems:
OffsiteCloud includes templates for multiple versions of Windows 2003 and Windows 2008/2008R2, a broad collection of Linux distributions and x86 based UNIX OS’s. Need something we don’t have? Use the “Create Blank Server” function and mount your custom ISO, then install as you would on any other server.

Compatible with Your Existing Apps:
Our VMware-based platform doesn’t lock you in to specific programming languages or a single API. Your existing Windows and Linux applications will run on OffsiteCloud - off the shelf and with no modification.

Pay as You Go:
Flexible, consumption-based pricing allows you to pay for what you need, when you need it, scaling up and down on demand.

RESTful API:
The OffsiteCloud API is a RESTful implementation that mirrors many of the functions available in the user interface. API users can perform power operations, configure, delete, and copy their servers. In addition, network functionality is exposed so that customers can enable, disable, create, and configure load-balanced Internet services.
