If you’re looking into the future of reliable, failsafe, high performance virtual dedicated servers look no further than the AUSWEB vCloud for Mission Critical performance.

The AUSWEB vCloud utilizes the true dedicated virtualisation environment of VMware ESX & vSphere 4 running on clustered Dell PowerEdge servers connected to a high-performance Fibre Channel Storage Area Network, where all Virtual Machines and their data reside, providing complete fault-tolerance & fail-safe redundancy.

While most virtual hosting providers provide iSCSI Storage for professional level Virtual Machines, AUSWEB is the first VMware virtual machine hosting company to provide ultra-fast and ultra-reliable RAID 6 Fiber Channel SAN storage for true enterprise grade performance.

The AUSWEB vCloud offers VMware HA (High Availability) which means if any server fails, all virtual machines running on a failed server automatically restart on another server within the cluster – with no interruption or changes required to your applications or software! Providing both the performance and stability of dedicated resources with our high-performance storage area network delivering true high availability.

AUSWEB vCloud Enterprise Hosting services are designed specifically for mission critical web hosting environments allowing for rapid provisioning and scalability of resources. AUSWEB vCloud hosting services can be scaled up or down on demand, allowing you to provision and run infrastructure and applications on demand and only pay for what you need.

A large number of existing AUSWEB customers have already road tested our VMware Premium VM Hosting range over the last 9 Months with great results. AUSWEB vCloud Enterprise Hosting will be opened for signups in the coming weeks – if you wish to register your interest or to be added to our vCloud waiting list please send an inquiry to cloud@ausweb.com.au

AUSWEB vCloud Enterprise delivers:
High performance SAN storage for all data
