Virtual Private Cloud

Your own cloud. Maximum security.

BlueLock’s Virtual Private Cloud solution enables you to maintain control and maximize the security in your own isolated cloud.  Whether you need a private cloud solution that lives on-premise or off-premise, BlueLock has a solution to cater to your needs. 

The BlueLock Box™

The BlueLock Box™ was designed with control and speed  in mind.  Time and time again clients asked for a virtual, fully-managed, and encapsulated environment but needed it to live behind their own firewall.  With the innovative BlueLock Box™ this is possible. Your private cloud is installed  behind your corporate firewall and on your local network with ability to connect to BlueLock’s public cloud for extra capacity or disaster recovery.

Whether you prefer your BlueLock Box in your data center or ours, BlueLock virtualization experts will migrate, engineer and assist in managing your private cloud.  Contact us today for your own private cloud.

What makes the BlueLock Box unique?

  • Your private virtual cloud can be implemented behind your own corporate firewall.
  • Your environment is managed for you by BlueLock experts.
  • The number of physical servers in your data center can be drastically reduced.
  • Your private cloud is pre-engineered with the latest blade, SAN and VMware technology for ease and compatibility.
  • Your power consumption can be lowered by as much as 70%.
  • Your entire system is encapsulated for ease of disaster recovery.

Marian University and the BlueLock Box:

The BlueLock Box Components:

BlueLock has taken all the basic building blocks of our public cloud and engineered it into a smaller form factor.  The BlueLock Box comes as a complete package:

  • HP C-Class Blades (up to 8 blades per chassis)
  • HP LeftHand SAN
  • VMware ESX 3.5 or vSphere 4 virtualization technology available
  • Virtual Router/Firewall/Switch
  • Fully managed by the BlueLock engineer team

Disaster recovery at a fraction of the cost:

Because your BlueLock Box is running the same technology in your data center that we use in our public cloud, disaster recovery can easily be integrated in the approach at a fraction of the cost.  Your BlueLock Box can be connected to our DR SAN and replicated at the block level to achieve Recovery Time Objective (RTO) as low as four hours and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO) as low as 30 minutes.  This integrated replication approach is the same as our integrated Cloud replication for clients that choose to host their production applications at BlueLock and replicate to our second site in Salt Lake City, UT.  Best of all, the DR environment is fully testable without disrupting your production applications.
