This new offer will now be composed of 10 references of hosts, ranging from 48 to 768 GB of RAM, including 3 references offering hyper-converged storage with VMware's vSAN technology, made accessible to more, thanks to the integrated industrial model of OVHcloud.
The release of this new range is also accompanied by a complete overhaul of both the private and public network, as well as new storage capacities with NSF datastores of up to 6TB for a more advantageous performance/price ratio, the company states.
OVHcloud CEO Michel Paulin says, "This launch paves the way for the complete renovation of our Hosted Private Cloud range, as well as the diversification of virtualisation solutions. HPC Premier will soon be complemented by the Essentials solution, adapted to the SMB and ETI market.
"Our ambition is to provide concrete, fluid and intuitive solutions that will enable everyone to get the most out of their data thanks to the right balance of performance, sovereignty and cost predictability.
OVHcloud founder Octave Klaba says, "For us, Hosted Private Cloud is an essential gateway that enables us to offer our customers the best technologies and a dedicated environment to support their migration to a high-performance, interoperable and secure cloud.
"We believe this recognition as a Leader is above all the result of a collective dynamic, carried out with the industrial and technological partners of our ecosystem."
