Benefits

Minimise costs through scalability

Reduce server costs by expanding and scaling resources on demand. Universally operate virtual environments on a host machine and enable remote provisioning, management and monitoring of edge devices virtually anywhere.

Maximise speed and performance

Increased processing power and application uptime means you can set up, configure and deploy workloads within an hour and accelerate time to market.

Simplify security and management

Enable a secure compute location with architecture designed to support data privacy and maximise efficiency by using SDDC technology and virtualisation tools. Save time while Lumen manages the virtual servers.
