TORONTO – Rogers Communications has unveiled Rogers Public Cloud, a new data sovereign, cloud infrastructure 'as-a-service' (IaaS) solution that allows businesses to securely manage their data, applications, servers, systems software and network resources over the internet.
Thanks to a partnership with European cloud and Internet infrastructure provider OVH, customers manage this virtual IT environment through a single web portal and have access to 24/7 support from bilingual professionals based in Canada, the company said Thursday. Rogers Public Cloud is hosted in OVH's Canadian data centre.
"As Canadian businesses produce and consume more data than ever before, many are looking to reduce pressure on IT teams and resources by moving to a cloud environment, however most solutions offered today are complex and cannot scale quickly enough to meet their needs," said Rogers’ enterprise business unit president Nitin Kawale, in the news release. "Unlike other cloud computing options in the market, Rogers Public Cloud offers customers a simple, data sovereign and cost effective way to manage their IT. This will ultimately free up time and resources so they can focus on their business."
