We understand why telecom carriers and anyone else in need of carrier-grade cloud might think they have no choice but to rely on AWS and Azure. They tend to think they’re looking for capacity above all else, and that leads them straight to the denizens of Big Cloud.
It also makes them think they have to accept whatever terms Big Cloud puts in front of them. That they have to share platform space with other users. That they need to pay a premium for top-quality hardware. That they will have to accept limited bandwidth (or pay through the nose to surpass the limits). That storage performance will likely be limited to 60,000 IOPS or so.
And of course, that managed service, firewalls, backups, OS licensing, network speed, 24/7 monitoring and managed security support will all require extra fees.
The more you think about it, the more you wonder why you associate Big Cloud with high capacity. They may have it, but they don’t provide much of it to you unless you pay a veritable extortion.
The fact of the matter is that UBX Cloud provides carrier-grade private cloud using a single 48U cabinet. And without charging you extra, we provide top-quality hardware, unlimited bandwidth, four different ways to access support, a dedicated Juniper vSRX firewall, Veeam enterprise backup, 100 percent uptime, OS licensing, 24/7 monitoring, a 25GE private network, 500,000 IOPS of storage performance, managed security support, a Tier 4 data facility and your own private resource for data storage.
How do we provide all that when Big Cloud can’t (or won’t) even come close to offering it to you?
There are several reasons.
First, we have excellent strategic partners who give us access to expansive storage capacity, including storage partners Pure Storage and Zadara Storage. Second, we don’t oversell our capacity on the theory that all our subscribers won’t use it at the same time. We assume you need everything you’re paying for and we make sure there’s room for you to take full advantage.
Third, we recognize that providing top-quality data management makes the rest of our job easier, and makes your operation more secure and more likely to continue operating without glitches.
We invested in all this technology and all of these capabilities because we knew they would perform at a high level for our customers. Big Cloud may have more resources than we have, but they don’t deploy them with maximum customer value in mind. They use it as a lure to convince you that you have no choice but to rely on them, and then they soak you for more and more fees while imposing more and more limitations.
We provide everything upfront for one price – which, by the way, is typically about 50 percent of what Big Cloud charges you. You get everything in the package – all the performance, all the capacity, all the support, all the access, all the storage. And if you have a question or an issue, you can pick up the phone and talk to us. Our team knows the names of our customers and we understand the priorities and concerns of each one of them.
Big Cloud has done a good job of one thing, though: They’ve convinced a lot of businesses that only absolutely humongous companies can provide carrier-grade cloud.
But it’s not true. Not only can independent providers like UBX Cloud provide carrier-grade cloud, we can do it more economically, more reliably and with better performance all-around.
In addition to all the other advantages we just covered, there’s one that ties it all together. We actually care about the value you’re getting from us, because we actually care about you.
