Pulsant has unveiled Pulsant Cloud, a hybrid cloud service designed to deliver edge capabilities and management tools for organisations with applications in complex hybrid environments.

Pulsant Cloud allows organisations to control their hybrid cloud architectures, combining multi-cloud and virtual private cloud with reporting tools, high-performance storage, workflow automation and advanced security in asuite of services to be rolled out over coming months.

For enterprises choosing a hybrid cloud architecture, Pulsant Cloud can provide cost-control, faster deployment, and the ability to manage workloads centrally while extending advanced orchestration capabilities to the edge. For advanced protection of their environments, enterprises can also implement role-based access controls and encryption, from the single cloud management portal, significantly reducing risk and improving visibility for IT compliance teams.

Pulsant Cloud streamlines management of deployments and connectivity, enabling expanded use of IaaS, PaaS and SaaS applications at the edge.

Rob Coupland, Chief Executive Officer at Pulsant, said, “The launch of Pulsant Cloud is another significant milestone in the development of our edge infrastructure platform. We have invested in the network, our data centres, and now the hybrid cloud to give enterprises orchestration all the way to the edge.

“Pulsant Cloud resolves the most significant control and optimisation challenges facing organisations with hybrid environments. It ensures teams are no longer held back by the cost, complexity and unwieldiness of their hybrid cloud architecture and delivers the cost-control and workload flexibility needed for edge – something that public cloud alone cannot offer.”

Pulsant has invested £100 million in expanding its edge infrastructure platform over the last year, including the acquisition of two data centres in Manchester and Reading.
