Lawrence Jones on UKFast eCloud Part 2 – Combined Technologies


Biggest Cloud Hits Manchester
UKFast eCloud brings giant-rivalling cloud infrastructure to the UK

With petabytes of high availability storage from best-of-breed vendors such as 3Par and SGI, the UKFast eCloud is built upon the latest Cisco UCS Blade technology.

Lawrence Jones, UKFast CEO, said: “We have been leading the field with dedicated servers for more than a decade — we grew from nowhere by automating everything and making what once took 10 days, possible in two hours.

“Now the market has changed and we didn’t want to just create a run-of-the-mill, self-serve product like other cloud offerings. Building cloud environments is nothing new to UKFast, we’ve been managing data centres and been responsible for hundreds of thousands of websites since 1999.

“With eCloud we wanted to create something really special. By combining the very best hardware with the highest level o customer service on an extraordinarily fast network, spread across multiple sites, it finally gives British businesses what they need and has brought a level of technology to Manchester that has never been seen before.”
