In a private cloud network, businesses use advances in virtualization and distributed computing to provide cloud-like computing to a limited number of people behind a firewall. Corporate network and IT administrators effectively become service providers to internal "customers" within the business, much like Google and Amazon are service providers to hundreds of thousands of business over the Cloud.

Private cloud networks are definitely the most expensive types of cloud computing, but they offer the most control over data security and IT processes. For businesses with strict data security and compliance requirements, private clouds often the best option.

Thanks to our experience in network, server and desktop virtualization, and distributed network infrastructure management, Verus has been an ideal partner in helping dozens of businesses design, architect and implement private clouds. Verus can also host components of private cloud networks on a co-location basis, such as on backup servers, as part of disaster recovery and business continuity provisions.
