Barriers to cloud progression.

I know that the cloud is great BUT….

Connectivity- “How do I guarantee

connectivity, quality and security?”

- “Do I want public, private, hybrid?”

Cost- “my CFO wants a degree

of financial predictability – utility is great to a point”

- “I am frustrated by the lack of transparency – so many hidden costs”

Manageability

6

Security- “I can’t let anyone at

this – my competitors or the FBI”

- “My CSO wants DMZs and application aware firewalls with full Intrusion Detection”

- “I have to know where my data is”

Manageability- “fingers crossed I’m not

locked in”

- “its best effort and that’s not business grade”

I know that the cloud is great BUT….

What about Connectivity?

“How do I guarantee connectivity, quality and security?”

- VDC is a MPLS VPN aware cloud.

”Do I want public, private, hybrid?”

- With VDC you can have any topology you want – one or all and change as you need

What about Security and Compliance?

“I proved my service works in a cloud, its cost effective and scales so very well – thing is - its in America….somewhere”

“shame – I have to know where my data is and that it stays there”

- With VDC you chose where it goes and it stays there

“My CSO wants DMZs, application aware firewalls and full Intrusion Detection”

- VDC is a Virtual Data Centre Environment – not just Virtual Servers but Firewalls, IDP, Load Balancers from specialist vendors. Control not emulation!

“I can’t let anyone at this”

- Interoute’s Data Centres are ISO 27001, BSI Grundschutz, isae 3402 type b/ssae 3402 and PCI/DSS certified
