Virtual Private Cloud for SME
Virtual Private Cloud solutions are an innovative method for delivering resources on a public cloud infrastructure in an isolated secure manner. A Virtual Private Cloud guarantees resources such as CPU and memory, disk capacity and IOPS to the virtual machines running in the private cloud ensuring your virtual infrastructure always delivers optimal performance.
All virtual machines in the Virtual Private Cloud are deployed on dedicated VLANs providing network isolation and security. A dedicated firewall/VPN appliance is included to provide a secure network connection between your office and your cloud hosted virtual machines.
With an Integrity IT Virtual Private Cloud businesses can host their entire IT infrastructure including mail servers, domain controllers and hosted desktops exactly as they would in their existing office or data centre.
Key benefits
Purchasing, configuring and maintaining servers and PCs is an expensive overhead, especially when you add in the associated management time and costs. An Integrity IT Virtual Private Cloud hosted solution removes this headache by providing you with hosted desktop environments, hosted domain controllers and hosted application servers which you can connect to from anywhere via the internet, at home, abroad or in the office.
Anywhere Access
Wherever you are you can connect to your Virtual Private Cloud. Our networks allow you secure access from any location via a web portal for desktops or VPN for servers. This means that you can collaborate with your work colleagues as if you were in the office. This ability to work from anywhere has many business benefits, leading businesses realise that they can increase productivity and gain staff loyalty by providing flexible working arrangements. With a Virtual Private Cloud workers can gain access to their working environment, network and applications from home instantly.
No More Desktop Management
A Virtual Private Cloud infrastructure solution removes the requirement to manage individual computers, leaving you to concentrate on expanding your business and maximising profit. Your data and applications are stored in our secured data centre and delivered to you via the internet. This simple delivery method backed up by our expert support engineers allows you to treat your IT infrastructure as a service which you can use from anywhere at any time.
True Utility Computing
Integrity IT cloud services provides round the clock access to your desktops and applications. We provide a fully managed service meaning you no longer have to manage and support your own hardware and software. A Integrity IT Virtual Private Cloud solution gives you all the benefits of a sophisticated and responsive IT infrastructure, but at a fraction of the cost of the traditional model. After signing with Integrity IT you will see immediate benefits in relation to cost reduction and a more flexible way of accessing your data and applications.
How Does it Compare?
A Virtual Private Cloud desktop or server provides the exact same functionality as a local PC but instead of data and applications residing on local hardware, all software and data is housed in our state-of-the-art data centres. This data is then sent via the internet, to an end-user’s PC or thin client and is secured with industry-standard encryption ensuring that no information can be accessed by external parties. This is an entirely seamless process and the end user’s Windows experience is identical to that offered by a traditional desktop PC, allowing interaction with the exact same applications in the exact same way. Your users will see immediate benefits as they will have the latest versions of all applications and will be able to access the desktop and their data from anywhere.
No On-Site IT Support Required
Virtual Private Cloud desktops are both simple to use and easy to deploy. With a cloud hosted infrastructure, there’s no longer any need to worry about patching or administering your desktops, application compatibility or upgrades, we manage your complete IT environment so you don’t have to. We can even provide you with pre-configured thin clients, you just plug them into a network port and start working.
No More Costly Upgrades
With technology continuing to advance at a rapid rate and new methods of accessing data and applications becoming available, a typical on-site server PC infrastructure solution can become obsolete in as little as 12 months after purchase. Being part of Integrity IT’ infrastructure means you can access the most powerful systems and latest software available and keep up with the latest advances without costly software and hardware upgrades. A Virtual Private Cloud hosted infrastructure solution is designed to be accessible from anywhere with any internet connected device, you can access your desktop from tablet devices such as the Apple iPad or latest Android based devices.

Cut Costs
Reduce operational and capital
costs by moving to a Virtual Private
Cloud solution. You only pay for
what you need and, not only will
you save money, but you will also
have access to enterprise-class
features including high availability,
continuous backups, instant application

All IT managers know getting users
on board can be the biggest challenge
when looking to deploy a
new technology or idea. A Virtual
Private Cloud solution works in
exactly the same way as traditional
Server/PC infrastructure. As
the look of the desktop and user
experience does not change there
is less user push back, less training
and a rapid roll out process. Integrity
IT have worked hard to ensure
the usability is as good as a normal
desktop, the look, the speed and
the customisation capabilities of the
desktop are identical to a typical
Windows 7 desktop you would purchase
from any hardware vendor.
As you will have your own dedicated
domain controllers, file servers
and application servers, you will not
have to worry other users actions
impacting on your service delivery.
A Virtual Private Cloud provides
complete isolation at the network
level ensuring the only traffic on
your private network is from your
users.
Simple Migration
Switching over to Virtual Private
Cloud computing is a simple
process. A Virtual Private Cloud
solution provides the same features,
tools and ways of working, but with
a different method of accessing
them. This familiarity means your
users do not need training as they
will continue to work with a desktop
environment they are used to.
Our migration engineers or your IT
team will easily be able to help you
move to our Cloud Infrastructure
Solution using a phased approach,
service by service.
Enhanced Security
Cybercrime is on the rise and Virtual
Private Cloud solutions let you keep
on top of the latest security developments
without having to shell
out for expensive new programmes.
Business Continuity
If your office is inaccessible and
you cannot go back inside a Virtual
Private Cloud solution allows your
users immediate access from another
location, you can relocate to
a temporary office and get working
again, or work from home, a coffee
shop etc.
