The term ‘cloud’ encompasses a vast spectrum of technologies and services. One area that is more clearly defined is infrastructure outsourcing or cloud based infrastructure-as-a-service.

While basic managed hosting has been around for many years, the standardisation of technologies, adoption of virtualisation and the rise of service-oriented software architectures have been major catalysts in the development of a new range of elastic, flexible, utility based infrastructure services that offer many more benefits to the enterprise.

Through the Nimbus acquisition and leveraging best of breed platform providers, Trustmarque is able to offer our customers a range of these infrastructure utility services to use as powerful and scalable components in their IT environments. It has also allowed us to add breadth and depth of expertise in cloud delivery and provide a range of cloud services that help address our customers IT or commercial aims.

As a result we can now offer secure, resilient and robust enterprise class dynamic servers, along with intelligent online backup and hosted virtual desktops. All of which is managed and supported 24/7 as well as being backed up by our consultancy, planning and migration services.

The end result is an ability to provide the right solution for our customers whether it’s on-premise, off-premise or a mix of both – true independent service from a trusted partner.
