Data Center or Private Cloud Technology Refreshment
Sangfor MCS provides an innovative solution for modernizing data center and private cloud technologies, merging the security and control of a private cloud with the public cloud’s adaptability and scalability. This service is ideal for organizations with established data centers or private clouds with high operational availability but require a technological refresh to stay current and efficient.
Traditionally, such upgrades demand significant capital expenditure (CapEx). Sangfor MCS offers a more flexible and financially viable option through its Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) model, transitioning from CapEx to operational expenditure (OpEx). This shift enables organizations to rapidly respond to market changes and manage cash flow more effectively without the delays of acquiring and setting up new infrastructure. Additionally, adopting an OpEx model positively impacts financial metrics like earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA), enhancing the organization’s financial outlook.
New Digital Business Initiatives
Sangfor MCS is ideal for organizations pursuing new digital initiatives, including digital transformation and application modernization. It offers a robust and flexible platform for hosting both ad-hoc and static workloads with a pre-allocated resource pool. This pool is equipped with advanced features like auto-scaling and our unique DRX scale-ups, ensuring that resource allocation is both efficient and responsive to your business needs.
We understand the importance of financial planning for any business. This is why Sangfor MCS comes with a fixed charging scheme for compute, storage, and network traffic. This approach eliminates the unpredictability associated with pay-as-you-go models and ensures that your budget remains on track, free from billing surprises. Sangfor MCS is well-suited for extending workloads requiring quick and agile provisioning. Whether your applications are best supported on an IaaS platform or you prefer using SaaS solutions from our ISV partners, Sangfor MCS can seamlessly accommodate your specific needs.
Offsite/Remote Backup and Disaster Recovery
Sangfor MCS offers a critical solution for offsite backup and disaster recovery (DR), addressing the growing need for robust data protection, especially against the rise of ransomware threats. This service is particularly important for businesses without a disaster recovery site, with MCS fulfilling this role to enhance business continuity.
By leveraging Sangfor Hyper-Converged Infrastructure (HCI), Sangfor MCS integrates smoothly with existing HCI setups, establishing a unified Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) platform. It also works with various third-party infrastructures through tools like the Sangfor Cloud Migration Tool (SCMT) and third-party backup and disaster recovery solutions. This flexibility makes Sangfor MCS a comprehensive and versatile option for different IT environments focused on mitigating data risks and ensuring operational resilience.
Hybrid Cloud with Sangfor HCI SDDC or Private Cloud
For customers looking to extend their on-premises software-defined data center (SDDC) or private cloud to the public cloud, Sangfor MCS offers a unique Unified Hybrid Cloud solution. Leveraging Sangfor Hyper-Converged Infrastructure (HCI), this solution seamlessly integrates on-premises systems with the Sangfor managed cloud. It allows customers to manage their hybrid cloud through a central management platform, delivering a consistent and efficient operational experience. Unified Hybrid Cloud supports the creation of a stretched cluster in either active-active or active-standby configurations.
Sangfor MCS further offers 24/7 hybrid cloud and managed security services for customers opting to outsource their infrastructure management and security. Our platform’s operational team is dedicated to monitoring critical thresholds and alerts from the customer’s infrastructure, ensuring round-the-clock vigilance. This approach guarantees responsiveness by the professional security team, while strictly not capturing any of the customer’s business data for the utmost privacy.
