Caronet Unveils Enterprise-Grade Managed Cloud Hosting Solution


CHARLOTTE, N.C. --(Business Wire)--

Caronet, one of the Southeast's premier colocation and hosting facilities and managed hosting service providers, unveils Carocloud. Carocloud offers tremendous benefits to businesses looking to the Cloud to make cost-effective IT infrastructure improvements without sacrificing the security of their systems and the reliability of their networks.

Carocloud offers features one would expect in a managed cloud hosting solution. It addresses security concerns in its design, ensures true customer isolation for the public Cloud and supports high availability with proactive host server monitoring.

Caronet sets its solution apart with unique pricing flexibility and infrastructure robustness.

Pricing Flexibility: Carocloud's cloud hosting pricing provides a genuine "pay-by-use" model that has no hidden package or standardized levels, putting the customer in control of their spending. When cloud servers are on, charges accumulate for hours consumed. When they are off, a small fee guarantees that the resources are mmediately available upon need. Caronet never oversubscribes memory or storage resources but ensures optimal cloud computing experiences through its infrastructure investments.



Carocloud uses an independent upgrade model that eliminates the potential for global changes to impact services or costs by allowing customers to make independent memory and storage choices.

Infrastructure Robustness: A deep-dive into Carocloud's infrastructure reveals the enterprise-grade platform that sets the solution apart in robust performance and unparalleled storage resources. With Carocloud, customers are basically unleashed to go as fast as their applications require and their customers demand. Caronet's infrastructure investment enables the enterprise level speed, reliability and security demanded by the cloud environment.


Carocloud is engineered for performance, building upon the same Xeon-based hosts, gigabit networks, and high-speed fiber channel SAN storage used for Caronet's other robust hosting products. Carocloud is highly available and proactively monitored, providing a cloud environment with faster speeds and higher uptime. Carocloud provides true public Cloud isolation - whether the customer uses a pure cloud or hybrid environment.

"We have leveraged proven technologies in developing our cloud hosting solution so we can bring a rich feature set and enterprise-grade power and robustness to customers. The solution levels the playing field by making it affordable for small and medium businesses to be technology equals with their larger competitors," said Paul Peeler, Caronet Director of Cloud Services.

Carocloud is easily implemented and rapidly scaled.

Carocloud follows a quick four-step implementation process and gives companies the ability to create server templates that spin up quickly. The solution is quickly implemented and enables rapid-fire scalability as growth occurs. Caronet's cloud hosting support helps customers through implementation and quickly works with them to understand new technologies and resolve issues.

"We fashioned Carocloud to surpass the needs of our customers. Our market sectors include small to medium-size companies whose development and testing cycles consume tremendous bandwidth and perform at top-end speeds that can exceed what is required by large corporations," adds Caronet President and CEO, Mike White. "Without an infrastructure to manage their needs, they have no way to simulate the real world and understand how their products truly perform."

Caronet simplifies the cost impact of its cloud hosting solution to businesses with its website-based Cloud Cost Estimator.

Caronet's managed hosting, colocation and hosting services help customers improve performance and reliability as they lower costs and maximize internal resources. Caronet enhances its secure, private network and enterprise-class colocation hosting facilities with premier engineering and support, offering a wide range of solutions in a reliable, cost-efficient platform to companies around the globe.
