ebcCloud Managed is a fully managed, multi-tenanted cloud solution that delivers high performance, reliability and scalability.

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is a proven way to minimise IT costs while maximising scalability, security, uptime and resilience. However, the complexity involved around the design, migration and deployment and day-to-day management requires both a high level of technical expertise and resource.

That complexity is one reason organisations are increasingly turning to a managed IaaS, and ebcCloud Managed provides is the ideal solution.

Delivering the security and resilience features of a dedicated infrastructure alongside the scalability and flexibility of a public cloud.

All live infrastructures will be situated within EBC Group’s primary data centre with the secondary data centres being utilised as backup location and resilient comms hub.

Back-ups within the Birmingham datacentre and to our secondary datacentre are provided based on your business specific requirements and necessary storage. Our platform provides clients with 10,000+ IOPS performance without the costs of a full SSD solution.

To enable EBC Group to offer the performance of Solid State Disks, but at a cost closer to that of Spinning Disks. EBC Group’s Cloud Hosting Platform features a hybrid setup whereby both types of media are used as part of a three tier system, where  more frequently added data is automatically prioritised on SSD's storage

ebcCloud Hybrid

The ebcCloud Hybrid solution can provide your organisation with a blend of cloud and on-premises resources. One of the key benefits of using hybrid cloud is that it enables organisations to move their workloads and data between onsite, private and public clouds with ease.

This provides a high level of flexibility, with data and workloads often being moved as requirements and costs change. This gives your company or organisation a wider range of options on data deployment and usage.

Organisations that require data to be kept on-premise for compliance reasons are able to benefit from transferring other resources into the cloud. Hybrid cloud can also be beneficial for organisations that work in premises where physical space is limited.

When you opt for ebcCloud Hybrid, you can pick and choose from a range of solutions to find the best combination for your needs. You’ll also be able to use any existing IT investments that you have already made, whether these are stored on your premises or elsewhere.

The ebcCloud Enterprise solution is provided through a partnership between EBC Group and global hosting and cloud provider IONOS, who are the largest hosting company in Europe, with over 8 million customer contracts in their data centres around the globe.

ebcCloud Enterprise ebcCloud Enterprise is fully managed and supported by EBC Group offers a competitive alternative for enterprise level organisations that are considering using cloud services such as Azure or AWS. It provides the perfect solution for organisations wanting the scale of a global cloud provider alongside the assurance of a fully managed service.

There are a number of benefits to using the ebcCloud Enterprise, including IONOS being a European company that will not be subject to the recent US Cloud Act, which could affect organisations data that is hosted with providers such as Microsoft, Amazon or Google.

ebcCloud Enterprise will offer per minute consumption based billing, which benefits organisations that only want to pay for data and services when they use them. For example if an organisation is busy during the daytime but doesn’t operate at night, they will be able to turn down the servers that aren’t in use to reduce their costs.

Using a direct connection from our data centre into IONOS’ cloud infrastructure means that clients will also be able to have cross connects with other providers or direct connections to their offices, delivering a further reduction in costs.
