SecureRack: the new virtual data centre in Switzerland(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) CH-Schindellegi - The Swiss Internet Service Provider Backbone Solutions AG has launched SecureRack, a new IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) solution that complies with the highest security requirements and is globally offered to small, medium and large companies. SecureRack provides its customers with a virtual data centre in Switzerland. A flexible resource pool allows the customers to adapt their dynamic IT infrastructure at any time to current needs and to run as many servers as required. * Flexibility and security are currently among the most important and topical issues in the IT sector. The resources required to run your own IT infrastructure in a modern computing centre in Switzerland with the highest security requirements are rented in the form of a virtual data centre. SecureRack offers the vDatacenter product, a flexible resource pool that enables companies to run a virtual data centre according to their own needs. Various operating systems and more than 100 server templates for the configuration of servers are provided. Resource pools are available from only EUR 24.50 per month. SecureRack uses the computing centres of Equinix Zurich in Switzerland. The Equinix computing centres satisfy the highest requirements concerning connectivity, security, availability and reliability. All data are exclusively located in Switzerland and are professionally protected by multiple firewalls and ultra-modern encryption technology. *Switzerland as a location* The high level of legal security, the strong data protection laws and the Swiss tradition of confidentiality and neutrality make Switzerland the ideal location for your virtual data centre. Switzerland is not a member of the EU and is therefore not subject to data exchange agreements with other countries. SecureRack is not constrained by predefined service packages or individual servers, but offers solutions that allow the customers to define their own resource pools according to their needs (CPU, RAM, DISK). These pools can be used to define, operate and delete any number of servers without additional costs. The customers thus have complete flexibility. Fast growth implies that IT environments quickly reach their performance and capacity limits. A SecureRack vDatacenter can be adapted to different requirements at any time. Customers can quickly and easily adapt storage space and performance to their needs. "SecureRack has the advantage that all changes to the vDatacenter are performed in real time," said Michael Vontobel, CEO of Backbone Solutions AG. "Companies therefore gain in flexibility and can provide the resources required at any time. Integration into an existing IT environment via VPN also makes SecureRack vDatacenter a perfect supplement for companies with their own IT data centre." *More than 100 server templates available* SecureRack not only offers its customers different operating systems such as Linux or Windows, but also more than 100 server templates with commonly used applications. A customer can use them to create a server with the desired characteristics within minutes. "Our server templates clearly distinguish us from our competitors and add significant value for our customers. A pre-configured server with the desired applications is ready for use in a few minutes. Interested parties will receive a discount of 50% for one month to test the SecureRack vDatacenter by creating and running any number of servers. Provision of a vDatacenter only takes five minutes and is handled on-line by our www.securerack.com web site," said Marcel Gmr, COO of Backbone Solutions AG. *About SecureRack* SecureRack is a product of Backbone Solutions AG.
