Managed Services

Managed Private Cloud

Operate compute, storage, networking, hypervisors, capacity, backup, and lifecycle across a private-cloud environment.

Private cloud combines platform flexibility with full responsibility for hardware, virtualisation, storage, and the management plane. We operate these layers as one service.

When this service is needed

  • Private cloud runs important workloads with limited operations capacity.
  • Capacity, firmware, hypervisors, and storage need regular review.
  • Provisioning and change are inconsistent.
  • The platform needs cross-layer monitoring and recovery.

Scope

  • Compute-cluster, hypervisor, storage, network, and management-plane health.
  • Capacity, allocation, overcommit, quota, and performance trends.
  • Firmware, hypervisor, controller, and guest-tool lifecycle.
  • Templates, provisioning, access, segmentation, and configuration control.
  • Configuration backup, workload protection, and recovery coordination.
  • Incidents, change, maintenance windows, documentation, and expansion planning.

Operating model

  1. Onboard: establish inventory, baselines, access, dependencies, and ownership.
  2. Observe: monitor service, capacity, security, backup, and cost indicators.
  3. Operate: handle incidents, requests, changes, patches, and routine work.
  4. Improve: review recurring problems, risks, technical debt, and optimisation.
  5. Report: communicate activity, findings, trends, and next priorities.

Service controls

  • Responsibility matrix and escalation paths.
  • Change records, approval, and rollback for material changes.
  • Runbooks and evidence for recurring work.
  • Recurring review of capacity, lifecycle, risk, and cost.

Intended outcomes

The private cloud gains coordinated cross-layer operations, better capacity planning, and more manageable lifecycle risk.
