Private Cloud migration in Australia is surging forward, but there’s a disconnect; mission-critical workloads in the Cloud are still fairly low, suggesting some business leaders remain sceptical about moving strategic and sensitive workloads to the Cloud.

Is a Private Cloud solution right for my business?

Private cloud environments offer distinct advantages in terms of control, security, and flexibility. With a private cloud, you retain full control over your data and resources, ensuring that sensitive information remains protected through data encryption. Unlike public clouds, private clouds provide a dedicated environment, either hosted on your premises or managed by a specialised provider. Private cloud services enable customization of your cloud infrastructure to suit your specific needs. This means you can adjust hardware and software configurations for optimal performance. You can choose to manage the private cloud internally or opt for managed private cloud services for streamlined operations. Furthermore, private cloud solutions facilitate integration between private and public clouds, known as hybrid clouds. By using public cloud resources for scalable tasks and private cloud resources for sensitive operations, you achieve a balanced and adaptable cloud infrastructure.

Comparing private cloud computing with public cloud options, private clouds excel in security, data isolation, and compliance. With dedicated private cloud servers, you eliminate resource contention concerns found in public clouds.

“Working with Canon Business Services ANZ (CBS) was a positive experience from the outset. Our early engagements with the team showed they were comprehensive, knowledgeable and proficient. We were particularly impressed with how the CBS team highlighted issues within our own environment that we were not even aware of. As we progressed through the process of migrating our on-premise infrastructure to the CBS Cloud, the team completely took ownership of the process and left us with much less to do than we had anticipated.” Scott Chapman, IT Manager, AAM Group

Frequently asked questions

Difference between Private Cloud and Public Cloud

Private Cloud solutions offer companies more flexibility and control over their data than public clouds. Private Clouds are installed on private hardware, usually owned by the company, giving them full control of access to resources. Additionally, Private Clouds enable a higher level of customisation to meet an organisation's unique needs and support their own policies and procedures. On the other hand, Public Cloud offers an alternative for businesses looking for affordable hosting options with limited maintenance and setup costs.

Unlike other Private Clouds, ours brings a unique combination of Cloud performance, 99.999% uptime and highly customisable environments, along with built in data security, 100% integrity (immutable backups), and compliance (ISO27001 and PCI DSS). Additionally, our Cloud Management Platform (CMP) delivers self service access to ensures complete visibility and that you’re always in control.
