Private cloud
Flexible, scalable and secure private cloud — the elasticity of cloud with infrastructure that is genuinely yours.
A private cloud is cloud infrastructure dedicated to a single organisation rather than shared with other tenants. Asptech builds and runs private cloud environments in the UK for businesses that need cloud flexibility with defined boundaries.
Public cloud is excellent at some things and a poor fit for others. When workloads are steady rather than spiky, when data has to stay somewhere specific, or when the bill has quietly become the largest line in the IT budget, a private cloud is often the better answer.
We design it around your actual workloads, build it, run it and support it. If a hybrid arrangement makes more sense, with some things private and some in a public cloud, we will say so.
What it includes
Dedicated infrastructure
Hardware that is not shared with other tenants, in a UK facility.
Scale on demand
Add resource when you need it and take it away when you do not, without a hardware purchase.
Designed around your workloads
Sized against what you actually run, rather than a fixed set of tiers you have to fit into.
Fully managed
Patching, backups, monitoring and support included, by the team who built it.
Common questions
- Is private cloud better than public cloud?
- Neither is better in general. Private tends to suit steady workloads, data-residency requirements and predictable costs; public suits bursty or globally distributed work. Many clients run both.
- Can we move existing servers into it?
- Yes — migrating physical and virtual servers into a private cloud is routine. We audit first so you know what moves cleanly and what needs work.
