It all starts with the concept of “virtualization.” Virtualization allows a single physical server to be partitioned into multiple “virtual servers”, each given specific allocations of the server’s memory, processing power, bandwidth and disk space. Because the resources are virtualized, it’s possible to increase and decrease them on the fly, meaning you can scale up from a small virtualized environment to a larger one as your needs increase, or scale down should they decrease. Your costs are tied to your configuration — allowing you to tailor your server to your business needs.

Scalable On Demand

Not only do you now have the same ability to scale resources on demand, but you also have the built in redundancy. This redundancy allows for high availability fault tolerable environments across multiple physical servers. Any data uploaded to a virtualized environment is 1:1 backed up on a different physical server, meaning your data is always being backed up for an additional cost. Furthermore, virtual infrastructure reserves enough spare resources to withstand the failure of a physical server. In the event that a physical server fails, the data on it remains available and the resources are simply restarted elsewhere in the cloud. Best of all, this happens automatically.

Here is a brief overview our security checklist:

• locked doors
• location and perimeter under video surveillance
• physical location, in Denver, CO, far away from natural disaster zones
• environment is dust-free and temperature controlled
• virtual doors are shut by firewalls and intrusion detection systems
• fire suppression
• fire suppression includes sprinklers, oxygen depletion and gas
• trash paper is shredded in order to maintain confidentiality
• security personnel where all people entering the data center are subject to background checks

iLOKA has employed all industry best practices to mitigate risks that the data center could face. Sound physical and logical security, well-documented recovery procedures and a good employee training plan all go a long way in protecting and securing a data center.

Cloud computing is an umbrella term referring to the technology that allows IT services such as computation, software or storage to be handled by data centres offsite. These resources can be accessed by an individual or organisation through the internet.

Scale Up and Down Whenever You Need To

Everybody wants to be popular. But what could be worse than your site going offline for just that reason?

When someone posts a link to your site on Twitter, Digg, SlashDot or another site, the influx of thousands of visitors can bring a normal server to a grinding halt. It could be down for hours while new hardware is prepared to meet the demand.

On the cloud, you just scale up when you need to. When the demand subsides, you scale back down again. Pay only for what you need, when you need it.

Maximum Up-Time with High Availability

With a traditional server, if the hard drive dies or the motherboard gets fried, you could be offline for hours while it is repaired. And there’s no guarantee your data will still be intact once it comes back online.

With the Cloud’s self-healing architecture, extended downtime and data loss — as well as the hair pulling that usually comes with them — are things of the past. All cloud servers are mirrored across a grid of servers. When a server fails the data remains available, and any affected Cloud Servers are automatically re-deployed elsewhere on the cloud within minutes.

Easy to Adopt

A cloud server works just like a traditional  server. Most applications you can deploy on a traditional dedicated server can be deployed on our redundant cloud and is instantly scalable to meet demand. You don’t have to learn any new coding methods for your applications, and the server can be managed in the same way as a traditional server.

If you don’t have experience managing servers, we provide server management plans for a small additional monthly fee to give you complete peace of mind. We can even help you migrate from your existing hosting platform.

Built to Your Specification

Why pay for what you don’t need? We give you the flexibility to scale up your processor, memory and disk space independently of each other, and whenever you need to. This enables you to keep your initial hosting costs low as you pay for what you use now, not what you might need to use in the future.

High Availability Deployments

If your requirements outgrow a single cloud server, look no further. We can deploy multiple cloud servers in advanced configurations to deal with extreme load or redundancy requirements. We can deploy virtual firewalls, load balancers, replicated database servers within the cloud — and then test the infrastructure by simulating extreme demand.

Snapshot Backups

Say goodbye to traditional backup solutions and data restores. On the cloud, we simply take a “snapshot” of your entire server, or even of a multi-server infrastructure. Should you need to bring your server back to its state when the snapshot was taken, we just shut down your live environment and start up the snapshot, and you’re up and running in minutes. It’s like having standby servers ready to deploy on-demand — just without the huge expense! This service is at an additional cost.

Better for the Environment

A cloud server has a far smaller environmental impact than a traditional server. Analysts IDC estimate that the cost of powering and cooling servers in the U.S. alone is $14 billion per year. The energy this consumes is huge — and much of it is wasted powering underutilized servers. The cloud brings much greater levels of efficiency as multiple virtual servers can be provisioned on the same physical hardware. This means a greatly reduced use of datacenter space, and consequently a significant reduction in the demand for power and cooling. Cloud hosting is integral to a greener future for the Internet.

Virtual Desktop for a Small Business Environment

A virtual desktop means that a user’s desktop environment (the icons, wallpaper, windows, folders, toolbars, widgets, etc.) is stored remotely on a server, rather than on a local PC or other client computing device. Desktop virtualization software separates the desktop operating systems, applications and data from the hardware client, storing this “virtual desktop” on a remote server.

The remote server that runs and supports virtual desktops uses software called a hypervisor to create a “virtual machine” that simulates the user’s desktop environment and capabilities. In a virtual desktop environment, users access their personal desktop remotely, over the Internet, from any client device.

Why Should You Care?

Desktop virtualization delivers on-demand desktops to users for anytime, anywhere, any device access. This provides employees with full access to their complete business desktop from multiple devices, such as their home PC, a smart phone or an iPad. Easy access to a virtualized desktop can help people to be more productive, because all they need to work is an Internet connection from any device, anywhere.

From an IT perspective, virtual desktops help reduce the time it takes to provision new desktops, and they also help to decrease desktop management and support costs. Experts estimate that maintaining and managing PC hardware and software accounts for 50 to 70 percent of the total cost of ownership (TCO) of a typical PC. Companies often turn to virtual desktops to cut these IT labor costs.

Since everything is centrally managed, stored and secured, virtual desktops eliminate the need to install, update and patch applications, back up files, and scan for viruses on individual client devices. Desktop virtualization also helps to streamline management of software assets.

Virtual desktops also provide greater security to the organization, since employees aren’t “carrying around” confidential company data on a personal device that could easily be lost, stolen or tampered with. For instance, in industries such as healthcare, where adherence to privacy regulations is of paramount importance, virtual desktops give medical personnel access to patient records without concerns about confidential information being downloaded. Since user data is backed up centrally and regularly, desktop virtualization also provides data integrity benefits.

Companies can also help extend the life of older client devices with desktop virtualization or use it to support thin clients. A thin client is a computing device that’s connected to a network. Unlike a typical PC or “fat client,” that has the memory, storage and computing power to run applications and perform tasks on its own, a thin client functions only as a virtual desktop, using the computing power residing on networked servers.

Because thin clients lack hard drives, CD-ROM drives, fans and other moving parts, they’re smaller, cheaper and simpler for manufacturers to build, they are cheaper to buy and maintain, and require less energy than traditional PCs or notebooks.

Companies will take advantage of cloud computing when they require a high variability on compute power. For example, assume a company requires double the number of web and application servers a few times a month. They do not want to pay for the capital expense of having dormant servers on the floor most of the time. In the cloud, compute power can grow and shrink. The enterprise pays on a usage basis.

Instead of having disparate tools for managing every instance of virtualization, many IT organizations are going to be better served by a comprehensive set of virtualization tools that allows them to manage virtualization environments that include virtual machines from multiple vendors running anywhere in the enterprise.

To facilitate taking a more comprehensive approach to virtualization, Quest Software today extended its lineup of Foglight virtualization management tools to include better management tools for virtual desktop environments, support for both VMware and Microsoft Hyper-V environments and a raft of new vWorkspace Connectors that make it easier to access virtual desktops from a broad range of mobile computing devices.

According to Carl Eberling, CTO at Quest Software, while many IT organizations are now taking a virtualization first approach to both server and desktop management, the challenge is finding a comprehensive way to manage all the variations of virtualizations that will exist in the enterprise. To accomplish that goal, Eberling says IT organizations will need tools that can go both “deep and wide” in terms of how rich the tools are and the number of platforms they support.

There’s no doubt that enterprise IT is increasingly becoming a virtual entity. To challenge that, IT organizations are faced with finding just the right combination of tools that will allow them to virtually manage all the combinations of virtual entities that now make up the enterprise.
