A managed private cloud provides organizations with dedicated cloud infrastructure managed by a third-party server hosting provider. A managed private cloud is generally a dedicated cloud server reserved for a single user and managed by a managed service provider (MSP). The cloud server could be a single stand-alone server or an array or multiple private cloud servers in a cluster for the sole use of a single customer. What Is Included with a Managed Private Cloud? With a managed private cloud, the MSP provides additional services to include server deployment, system updates, clustering, configuration, operating system management, ongoing support, server administration, monitoring, maintenance, provisioning hypervisor, system updates, backup, replication, setting up failover systems, load balancing, and more. ## Managed Private Cloud Features ### System Environment Up-to-OS management and support. Active administration of host server resources, including CPU, network, and hard disk utilization. ### Advanced Certifications Microsoft Certified Professionals, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux Certified Engineers on staff to assist with all VM design, configuration, and deployment. ### VM Provisioning VM creation, cloning, and removing. Initial private networking setup and VLAN tagging (to segment traffic between individual VMs). A self-service portal enables you to start, stop, and console in to any configured VM. ### System Updates Prior to updating the host server, each new update is reviewed and tested to ensure that there are no issues with the system. Any necessary restarts will be scheduled. Hyper-V deployments make use of cluster aware updating, ensuring 100% uptime while updating each node in the cluster. ### Replication and Failover Virtual Machine replication is designed to provide cross-node fault tolerance by increasing the necessary storage, memory, and CPU requirements for a separate dedicated computing node. Having these resources dedicated and waiting allow for a Low Recovery Point Objective (RPO). ### Advanced Monitoring SNMP and hypervisor specific system performance monitoring to ensure hardware and host servers functioning. Customized monitoring available for memory, CPU, load average, network, I/O, and drive health monitors. ### Clustering Offers the ability to migrate VM to another host server in case of system failure or load balancing between servers. Allows for redistribution of Virtual Machines amongst multiple host servers and the ability to configure a shared storage node to provide VM Hypervisor management and automated failover of a clustered computing node. This is done by increasing memory/CPU per computing node, since VM hard disks are located on a shared storage. ### Additional VM Services Atlantic.Net will ensure your hardware, virtualization hypervisor, and all VMs are always functioning properly. If you encounter an issue relating to OS-level or system configuration, our certified professionals can assist you under a consulting agreement. ### World Class Managed Private Cloud Infrastructure Our state-of-the-art SOC 2 TYPE II and SOC 3 TYPE II certified data center infrastructure is monitored 24/7/365 by our network operations center.

Atlantic.Net supports three industry-standard hypervisors: Microsoft Hyper-V, VMware, and KVM. Our team will help you select and deploy the best hypervisor for your specific workload requirements, and we manage and support your virtualized configuration 24/7/365. ### How does managed private cloud differ from dedicated hosting? Dedicated hosting provides a single physical server with direct hardware access and no virtualization layer. Managed private cloud runs on dedicated hardware but adds a hypervisor layer, enabling you to create, clone, and manage multiple virtual machines on a single host or cluster. Atlantic.Net fully manages the hypervisor, OS updates, monitoring, and failover, reducing your operational overhead. ### Is managed private cloud suitable for HIPAA and PCI compliance? Yes. Atlantic.Net's managed private cloud infrastructure is housed in SOC 2 Type II and SOC 3 Type II certified data centers and is well-suited for HIPAA, PCI DSS, and other compliance-regulated workloads. Single-tenant isolation, managed security updates, and 24/7 monitoring all contribute to a strong compliance posture. ### What level of management does Atlantic.Net provide? Atlantic.Net provides up-to-OS management, which includes hypervisor provisioning, system updates, clustering, VM replication, failover configuration, SNMP monitoring, and hardware management. For OS-level or application-specific support beyond the standard scope, our certified professionals can assist under a consulting agreement. ### Can I manage my own virtual machines on a managed private cloud? Yes. Atlantic.Net provides a self-service portal that enables you to start, stop, and console in to any configured VM. While we handle the underlying infrastructure, hypervisor management, and updates, you retain full control over your virtual machines and the applications running inside them. ### Does managed private cloud include disaster recovery and failover? Yes. Atlantic.Net's managed private cloud includes VM replication designed for cross-node fault tolerance, allowing for a low Recovery Point Objective (RPO). Clustering capabilities enable automated failover between host servers, and shared storage configurations ensure your VMs can migrate seamlessly in the event of hardware failure. ### How do I migrate my existing infrastructure to a managed private cloud? Atlantic.Net provides [Managed Migration Services](https://www.atlantic.net/managed-services/migration-services/) with a structured process that includes discovery, infrastructure planning, secure data migration, VM provisioning, environment hardening, testing, and final cutover. Whether you are migrating from on-premises virtualization or another hosting provider, our team will ensure a smooth transition. ### What monitoring is included with managed private cloud? Atlantic.Net provides SNMP and hypervisor-specific system performance monitoring around the clock. This includes customized monitoring for memory, CPU, load average, network throughput, I/O performance, and drive health. Our network operations center monitors your infrastructure 24/7/365 to detect and resolve issues proactively. ## Dedicated to Your Success Jason Coleman VP of Information Technology, Orlando Magic > "After evaluating a range of managed hosting options to support our data operations, we chose Atlantic.Net because of their superior infrastructure and extensive technical knowledge."
