Overall Satisfaction with IBM Cloud Virtual Servers

We are replacing our datacenter for infrastructure as a service. We have some racks and our rent data center, so we decided to move to the cloud and stop buying expensive hardware while getting more infrastructure. It is more cost-effective to go to the cloud for our infrastructure and our datacenter.

Pros

  • Citrix Services
  • ERP Solutions

Cons

  • DRP on premises.
  • Citrix Provisioning Services
  • We have servers running 24/7 with IBM Cloud Virtual Servers.
  • We do need to buy more guarantees per server every 3 years.
We selected IBM because they have representative partners in Colombia. We must have the price in our local currency, so buying them through the local distribution channels makes the solution the cheapest and makes maintaining the architecture easier.
MySQL, Citrix ADC (formerly NetScaler ADC), Acronis Backup Cloud
Well suited for:
  • Websites that require high availability, when you need 99.99% of service.
  • Citrix Share Desktop, when you need to increase your user numbers or downgrade.
  • Netscaler Load Balancing, when you need have a premium solution with low cost.
  • Custom Scenarios with MPLS links, if you need to connect different regions to some apps.
