Getting the Most Out of Your Infrastructure
6connect was founded on the principle that conventional managed services were not providing scalable solutions that made sense for datacenter customers. Our goal was to create a platform for managed service delivery that was easy to administer for both the provider and the customer – and for a reasonable price.
Conventional Clouds? So 2008…
So how do services get delivered? 6connect leverages the HIVECentral service platform. A standards based hardware platform with customized interface that allows for simple visibility and administration. It’s based on commodity hardware so no weird APIs or funky inner workings. Standard stuff – just tied together in a unified manner so customers don’t have to recode or normalize their application.
These integrated hardware platforms (HIVEs) are distributed in multiple datacenters in disparate facilities to provide better performance and redundancy. Why settle for a cloud served out of one datacenter – when you can have dedicated computing resources for your application served out of distributed facilities?
Whoa – who is 6connect?
We are a team of individuals with backgrounds spanning multiple vertical industries. To make it more interesting, we also love solving problems. We truly saw the need for a platform like this and decided to build one since we got bored of waiting for someone else to do it.
