A pool of resources, your VMs on top
Reserve CPU, RAM, and storage as a pool. Spin up VMs against it on your schedule. We hold the platform; your team operates the workloads.
A slice of the cloud, drawn to your shape
A Virtual Data Center is a reservation of CPU cores, memory, and storage on our shared cloud. Inside the reservation, your team builds and operates VMs at its own pace, without re-quoting each provision. The hypervisor, the storage layer, and the network are operated by us across two Troy datacenters.
Use it when a single VM is too small a unit and a dedicated cluster is more than the workload needs. Common shapes: a development sandbox that fluctuates day to day, a hosting platform for many small tenants, a DR target that holds capacity in reserve.
The pool, the platform, the operators
What the contract holds, and what your team gets the keys to on day one.
CPU, RAM, and storage allocated up front. Your team spins VMs against it on demand, without re-quoting each one.
Triple-replicated all-NVMe storage. Snapshots and offsite replication available as a service when you need them.
Pool placement in one of our Troy datacenters or split across both, depending on the redundancy you want.
Three quick questions
The ones we get on the first call. If yours is not here, the answer is on the other end of the phone.
How does billing work when usage shifts inside the pool?
You commit to the pool size at contract; the cost is the pool, not the VMs inside it. Resizing the pool (up or down) happens at contract renewal or by agreement during the term. Burst above the pool is available where the contract calls for it.
Who operates the VMs inside the pool?
Your team does. We hold the platform (hypervisor, storage, network, the host operating system) and you operate the workloads on top. Managed Services can be added if you want our team to run the VMs as well.
Can the pool span both Troy datacenters?
Yes. Pool placement can be one facility or split across both, with VM-level placement under your control. Most customers run primary in one facility and DR capacity in the other.
Tell us the pool you need
Cores, memory, storage, placement, growth headroom. We will quote what fits, and we will say so if a different tier fits better.
