Managed edge computing
High availability, real time, secure data processing – ONCITE Open Edition bridges the gap between cloud and edge computing and gives you the flexibility and scalability you need for your IT applications. Your advantage: We take over the operation of the edge cloud, so you don't have to worry about building up additional expertise.
Solution
When is the use of ONCITE Open Edition recommended?
Data criticality
- Regulatory requirements prevent outsourcing to the cloud
- Sensitive data must not leave the company premises
- Critical data is not approved for storage in the public cloud from a compliance perspective
Heterogeneous IT landscapes
- On-premises data centres of multiple company locations are rarely connected to each other and have grown heterogeneously
- Connection to the cloud is usually only possible on a site-specific basis
- Centralised control is not possible
Scalability of private clouds
- Size, data volume and usage can be difficult to estimate at first
- Many private cloud providers don’t offer modular scalability
