Virtual Data Center/ Private Cloud
Virtual Private Server (VPS)
In this type of hosting, through a technique known as virtualisation, an extremely robust physical server is divided, creating several virtual servers isolated from each other virtually. Although they share processing power, traffic, disk space, and RAM, these resources are fully dedicated to each virtual server.


Service definition
Just as a physical data building would house numerous racks containing servers, a virtual data center (VDC) is a virtual location that houses numerous virtual servers. It offers a pool of virtualised resources, which are then available to your organisation. This means that instead of one virtual operating system, you have an entire environment that contains many virtual servers.
A VDC is designed to meet the needs of enterprise-level organisations. It is, essentially, a management environment. It provides the flexibility to your IT team to work within a secure, scalable, and flexible environment.
A VDC also serves as a source of backup and replication. Depending on the cloud provider, some VDCs allow you to customise your virtual servers so they match exactly what you need.
It offers businesses an advantage to save on their IT costs by only paying for what they use, while also being scalable.


Service features
Broad network access
Capabilities are available over the network and accessed through standard mechanisms that promote use by heterogeneous thin-client or thick-client platforms.
Flexibility
Flexibility allows for capabilities to be scaled up and released quickly and, in some cases, automatically. To the consumer, the capabilities available often appear to be unlimited but can be purchased in any quantity at any time.
Measured service
Cloud systems automatically control and optimise resource usage by leveraging a metering capability at the appropriate level. Resource usage can be monitored, controlled, and reported, providing transparency for both Paratus and the consumer of the utilised service.
On-demand self-service
A consumer can automatically provision computing capabilities as needed without requiring human interaction with the service’s provider.
Resource pooling
The computing resources are pooled to serve multiple consumers, using a multi-tenant model with different physical and virtual resources dynamically assigned and reassigned according to consumer demand.

- Loss of business capability in the event of a disaster.
- Lack of compliance with disaster recovery mandates.
- Increase business capacity and scale rapidly
- The business is unable to scale up its operation because IT cannot scale up capacity fast enough to support the business.
- Give consumers access to scale capacity on-demand. Enable IT to scale in order to support business demand. Scale to off-premises capacity.
- Lost revenue due to lack of capacity. Lost customers from underperforming business services.
- Rapid provisioning of dev/test services.
- The business cannot develop new products and services rapidly because IT takes too long to provision the dev/ test infrastructure.
- Provide self-service IT infrastructure for developers and test users. Reduce time-to-market for products and services.
- Products and services are late to market, resulting in loss of customers and market share.
- Security and compliance assurance.
- Concern about putting crucial financial applications and data on public cloud servers.
- Provide compliance controls and transparency for the service. Provide network isolation for applications that must be isolated.
- Security and compliance breach.
- Business market launch
- The business has insufficient resources and capacity to respond rapidly to marketplace needs, including seasonal events
- Provide rapid service provisioning to support product and service launches. Give consumers access to a catalogue of IT infrastructure services that they can rapidly provision and use.
- Products and services are late to market, resulting in loss of customers and market share. Lost opportunity cost.
