What is a Private Cloud?
A Private Cloud is a Cloud environment whose servers, resources and networks are provided for one organisation and separated from other users. Unlike a Public Cloud, it uses dedicated hardware and network infrastructure. You control the virtual network, systems, applications and data while Xelon operates the underlying infrastructure in ISO-certified Swiss data centers.
When is a Xelon Private Cloud the right choice for you?
A Private Cloud is particularly suitable when your IT infrastructure is relatively stable and predictable, you operate approximately 50 servers or more, or you need dedicated resources for business-critical workloads.
-
You need dedicated infrastructure
Your servers and networks should not run on a shared Public Cloud platform? A Xelon Private Cloud provides a dedicated infrastructure for your environment.
-
You want to retain full control
With a Private Cloud you remain in control of your data, systems, applications and virtual network while avoiding the need to build and operate your own data center, virtualization and network infrastructure.
-
You need predictable costs
For relatively static environments, Private Cloud provides predictable fixed costs rather than continuously changing usage-based charges.
-
You need to keep data in Switzerland
The Private Cloud runs in ISO-certified Swiss data centers, and your data remains in Switzerland.

Expert view:
"With a Private Cloud, you have less internal ownership. You no longer have to worry about data center, virtualization, and network issues, and you don't need to hire specialized professionals for these areas. Additionally, when working with the right Cloud Provider, IT service providers have the benefit of having a partner to support them in their projects. If you are facing a shortage of ICT professionals or need a Solution Architect to design your environment for a project, you can ideally rely on your Cloud Provider to provide the necessary resources."
