The Cloud Stack


Your cloud, my cloud

• Public Scalable and elastic computing services offered to external

customers via the Internet. Typically multi-tenant, where multiple customers are

able to share a single set of resources.

• Private Dynamic and scalable computer services offered to internal

customers using equipment the customer owns and delivered over a private network.

What do Customers Have to Say?


Nichols College

“Disaster recovery solutions can be very complex ... PlateSpin Forge is very straightforward. There’s just one piece of hardware to manage. It’s low maintenance, and has low overhead. Without it, we certainly would have spent more money on another disaster recovery solution that would have required more resources to support it.”
