Read the press release for details.

Secure Private Cloud Solution: Easy to Deploy, Operate and Use

The Unisys Secure Private Cloud solution enables clients to reduce IT costs through server and storage virtualization; and remove IT bottlenecks through automated operations and immediate, as-needed self-service provisioning of resources. In addition, clients can easily align the supply of IT resources to fluctuating business demand.

For ease of deployment, this pre-loaded, ready-to-go solution allows a full range of virtualization, including scale-up and scale-out, and supports physical as well as virtual machines. Clients can run existing Microsoft Windows applications without alteration, reduce migration costs and realize the business benefits of cloud deployment more quickly.

Disaster Recovery, Additional Services Boost Unisys Public Cloud Capabilities

Unisys has added Secure Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) to the Secure Cloud Solution. This new service provides comprehensive business continuity and disaster recovery on a subscription basis, lowering clients' cost of entry compared to internal implementation. It also makes it easier for clients to comply with laws and standards requiring storage and recovery of sensitive business data and applications.

Unisys has also augmented key Secure Cloud Solution service offerings:

• - Unisys Secure Platform as a Service (PaaS), which makes it easier for clients to move their applications to the cloud without changes, at the end of November 2009 will support Microsoft stacks, including IIS Web Server, .NET Application Server and SQL Server, along with custom stacks such as IBM Websphere and Oracle; and
• - Unisys Secure Virtual Office as a Service (VoAAS), which provides access to standard office suites through hosted desktop services, now supports qualified client-supplied devices, such as PCs used as thin clients. This addition enables IT organizations to give workers access to applications and support through the technologies they want to use so they can stay continually productive no matter where they are.
