Interoute Virtual
Data Centre
Interoute Virtual Data Centre (VDC) is a
scalable, fully automated Infrastructure
as a Service (IaaS) solution. Interoute VDC
provides on demand computing, storage
& applications integrated into the heart of
your IT infrastructure.
The Interoute Virtual Data Centres are not isolated but built
into Interoute’s pan-European network which spans more
than 60,000 km of lit fibre, making Interoute VDC Europe’s
largest cloud services platform. The network advantage
means we don’t charge you for any data transfers in and out
of your VDC or between VDC zones.
Interoute VDC is the virtual equivalent of a real physical
data centre. It gives you the same control and resource as
having your own data centre but without the cost of buying
equipment, power, colocation, network and manpower.
Interoute VDC is the first cloud computing solution that
can be deployed with the simplicity and convenience of the
public cloud, combined with the security and confidence that
a private cloud brings. The ability to offer fully automated
public and private cloud on the same platform makes
Interoute VDC unique.
Within your VDC you can choose to build your server,
switching and storing in exactly the same way as you would
in the physical world. You can specify RAM, CPU, storage and
network to create any configuration you want, as often as
you like. This allows you to add new applications, services and
customers as fast as your sales demand.
Combining computing virtualisation in the cloud with network
virtualisation in the ground, Interoute VDC delivers virtual
IT infrastructure as a fully automated online service and
connects across Europe using Interoute’s virtualised MPLS
fibre optic network.
Interoute VDC has all the benefits you expect from a cloud;
computing infrastructure, elasticity, pay-as-you-go pricing
and real-time deployment. But Interoute VDC is not simply
a cloud of virtual servers. It is a completely new approach to
designing and operating a secure computing solution, which
gives you an actual data centre you can control with a click on
Europe’s largest cloud computing platform.
With Interoute VDC you don’t have to spend time and effort
on installing and managing firewalls between your Virtual
Data Centres, because all data traffic is inherently secure
as it moves between them. This advanced technology gives
you the choice between having Interoute VDC delivered as
a private cloud service via your corporate VPN or as a cloud
service via the public Internet - or both.
Interoute Virtual Data Centre is a truly unique cloud
computing platform – the first without compromises.

What makes Interoute VDC stand out
from the cloud?
Private and public cloud on one platform – Using Interoute’s
pan-European virtualised MPLS network, you can create a
private connection directly into Interoute VDC using your
corporate VPN or you can simply access via the public
Internet. You can also use a combination of both.
Keep your data within your control – You can choose
where to put your data in any of our VDC zones in London,
Geneva, Amsterdam, Berlin, Milan, Paris, Hong Kong and
New York. This can help ensure your business complies with
local data legislation.
Move your data for free – If you decide to move your data,
we don’t charge you for any data transfer between our VDC
zones. In fact, we don’t charge you to move data within your
VPN and VDC sites or the public Internet.
Integration – Because VDC exists within the Interoute
network, we can integrate it securely into your network and
IT infrastructure where you want it. With Interoute VDC, you
can enjoy a large public elastic computing solution or a highly
secure certified private solution. VDC’s flexibility makes it
perfect for the world of hybrid legacy architectures. Interoute
VDC can be your first and safest entry into the new economic
revolution of cloud computing.
Security – Interoute’s customers include many of the world’s
most demanding enterprises and governments. The same
expertise from serving these customers went into creating
Interoute VDC. It is a secure cloud within a secure network,
using proven MPLS technology to separate and protect your
data, applications and other sensitive corporate assets.
Within the Interoute VDC Virtual Machine environment you
can create VLAN segregated, DMZ enabled, multi-tiered
networks. Interoute VDC can replace your current IT
infrastructure without compromising security.
Elasticity – Interoute places no limitations on the amount
of machines, storage or network you can provision. Interoute
VDC can expand and shrink to match your business needs.
Our API ensures that your costs can be set to track demand
precisely and automatically, making Interoute VDC the most
cost effective and secure platform available.
Resilience – Because Interoute VDC is built into the fabric
of one of the world’s largest networks and because we
don’t charge for connections between Interoute Virtual Data
Centres, you can now build real resilience at a fraction of the
traditional cost. This solution is so cost effective, it redefines
the future of computing and how you can do business.
No vendor lock-in – Interoute supports multiple hypervisors
so migrating your existing cloud service to Interoute can be
done without causing compatibility problems. To give you
freedom from technology and supplier lock-in, images and
data can easily be downloaded and migrated from Interoute
VDC to another solution. Combine this with sophisticated
networking and Interoute VDC makes migration easy.
Fully automated service – You can start using Interoute
VDC today by visiting cloudstore.interoute.com. Using the
online portal, you can be ready to provision your first
instance in minutes.

Build your IT
Infrastructure in an instant
Interoute VDC is fully automated and
available on demand online at
cloudstore.interoute.com
So, you can provision entire ICT solutions
into your own Virtual Data Centre
environment in just a few clicks.
Customise your machine – Each Virtual Machine can be
customised for CPU, RAM, storage, backup and disaster
recovery as well as networking preferences to allow bespoke
system builds. These high level controls help you avoid
spending money on unused resources.
Integrate with existing systems – Use our API to control your
VDC infrastructure directly from your existing applications.
Save time and resource by using the API to code CPU, RAM,
storage and networking changes directly into your systems.
We have a range of documentation and sample scripts
available in our online Knowledge Centre to help you get
going with automation processes.
Create your own appliances or use prebuilt templates –
Interoute has created the most popular appliances and
loaded them in our CloudStore. You also have the freedom to
create or upload your own appliances and manage a private
service catalogue for your business.
Role-based administration – You can control user access
within your organisation. Your community can get up
and running fast because IT managers can use their own
controlled builds for creating and controlling the cost of their
service catalogue.
Measured service – Active reports allow you to monitor
the usage of VDC services. You can use this information
to allocate resources within the VDC environment, so your
consumption never exceeds your budget.
Simple pricing – There are two purchasing models;
Utility and Commit.
Ş Utility pay-as-you-go pricing. Each virtual resource is
priced per hour of allocation and the total amount used is
charged at the end of each month.
Ş Commit pricing. Charges a fixed rate per month for
a set amount of resources. Packages are available in
Small, Medium and Large. If you need to, you can still
burst beyond your committed resource, which is charged
according to the associated rate card.
