CloudSource private cloud

Our own cloud, in our own Auckland data centre.

We’ve run CloudSource since 2014. You get the flexibility of cloud without hyperscale pricing, your data stays in New Zealand, and you can call the engineers by name.

Server racks along a data centre corridor

Hosted in Auckland. Your data stays in New Zealand.

Backups and monitoring included. They’re in the price, not extras.

No complicated contracts. Short-term options too.

What’s included

You can move everything to us, just back up what you’ve got, or do a bit of both. It’s all hosted and supported here.

Cloud hosting

We move your servers into our data centre. Your people keep the setup they know and can work from anywhere.

  • Virtual server room (IaaS)
  • 24/7 monitoring and support
  • Automated backups included
  • Scale CPU, memory and storage as you grow

Backup and recovery

Anything from hourly backups to a hot standby you can switch over to straight away.

  • Hot backup for instant failover
  • Critical backup every hour
  • Laptop and device protection
  • Fast local restores

Hybrid cloud

Keep some systems in the office and run the rest with us or in Azure. One team looks after the lot.

  • Local and Microsoft cloud together
  • Disaster recovery office
  • One team supports it all
  • Grow one step at a time

File sharing and collaboration

File sharing and personal cloud drives that work much like the big providers, except your files stay in New Zealand.

  • Private storage for teams
  • A personal cloud drive for each user
  • Small office cloud server
  • Always hosted locally

Short-term hosting

Moving office or renovating? We can look after your server for a few weeks or a few months.

Temporary server home

Bring us your existing server. We’ll rack it, connect it and keep it running securely in our Auckland data centre while you sort out your long-term plans.

Temporary data home

We’ll take an image of your server and run it on our infrastructure. Same access for your team, with nothing to move.

Why clients choose a local cloud

A lot of our clients want to know exactly where their data is and who’s looking after it. Our private cloud gives them a straight answer to both.

Your data stays here

It’s all in our Auckland data centre, under New Zealand law. If you want to come and see it, we’ll show you round.

You know your team

The engineers looking after your servers are the ones who pick up the phone. Your tickets don’t get routed overseas.

Proper physical security

Backup generators, dual air-conditioning, multi-factor sign-in and 24/7 monitoring.

Quick to fix

Your data is a short hop away, and so are we. When something goes wrong we can get onto it straight away.

If you outgrow it, we’ll move you to Azure.

When a system needs more than our cloud can sensibly give it, we plan the move to Azure and do it. Everything else stays with us.
