Your private data center in the cloud
Need more resources to develop your business? Need to process sensitive data that requires strict security, confidentiality and a dedicated infrastructure?
With our Hosted Private Cloud solutions, you get a private infrastructure that is hosted and managed by our teams — leaving you to focus on your core business.
We combine the power of next-generation Intel® hardware with VMware® technology, to deliver you fully-isolated, dedicated environments that can handle the most critical workloads.
Hosted Private Cloud has been designed with the same platform you are currently using for on-premises infrastructures — including vSphere, vCenter and NSX. Get more out of services you are already familiar with, built on a VMware foundation.
With a global infrastructure hosted across four continents, get high-performance dedicated resources available on demand, at an unbeatable price. Depending on how your requirements change over time, you can easily add and remove computing capacity and storage — without any compromise on performance.
Since your servers are dedicated to your workloads, you can build a highly-available infrastructure across multiple host clusters. Replicate your data across data centers with a high-capacity private network, isolation rules and strict redundancy.

The power of dedicated hardware with the flexibility of cloud computing
Hosted Private Cloud combines the scalability of the cloud with a 100% dedicated hardware infrastructure. Our platform is virtualized using VMware technology. Simply create unlimited virtual machines (VMs) from the vSphere interface.

What our packs include
Our starter packs include two hosts, which you can choose the size of — and two datastores for storing your data. These elements are entirely dedicated to you, and have a very high level of security. Migrate quickly to a private cloud hosted by OVHcloud.
The three pillars of self-service, dedicated platform
The vSphere Enterprise Plus license is included, so that you can create and manage your virtual machines with total flexibility, on 100% dedicated resources.
Integrate a hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) powered by vSAN, in addition to vSphere to improve business agility, speed of operations, and lower costs.
This network virtualization service works with NSX. It integrates a firewall, a load balancer, and security rules via vSphere.


We are here to help you get started. You may schedule a free consultation with an OVHcloud advisor to discuss an architecture that best suits your business needs.
Why choose a Dedicated Cloud?
Standard technology and maximum industrialization
Immediate access to your dedicated infrastructure
When you order a Hosted Private Cloud solution, we deliver a dedicated infrastructure, pre-configured (vCenter) and ready-to-use via the vSphere interface. All you need to do is deploy your virtual machines.
Automatic replacement of your resources
You do not need to contact us if an incident occurs on any of your hosts. They are automatically replaced with identical or equivalent hosts with automatic rebooting for your VMs (with VMware High Availability feature included). Your infrastructure is available 24/7.
Additional resources available on demand
Need more hardware resources to create new VMs? You can add and remove data stores at any time. These resources are pre-configured, delivered to your infrastructure, and have both hourly and monthly billing options.
VMware virtualization
The power of vCenter and vSphere
Once you have placed an order for a Hosted Private Cloud solution, you can access it through vSphere hypervisor. From this interface, you can create VMs to suit your needs, projects, workloads, and much more.
This means you are not limited to a catalog of virtual machines. You can choose exactly what you need — vRAM, vCPU, storage capacity and network rules — for each VM deployment.
A long-standing partnership
Our partnership with VMware is the reason you can benefit from all of their technological innovations. This is also why the Hosted Private Cloud provides the best of VMware virtualization with vSphere, Software-Defined Network technologies with NSX, Software-Defined Storage with VSAN, and the advanced management solution vRealize Operations for full flexibility managing your infrastructure.
Customization with vSphere
With our VMware expertise, we can add features directly in vSphere. On top of adding and removing resources via the interface, you can also run outage simulations with the Resilience Test service to test your redundancy and reboot mechanisms.
The advantages of the cloud, and the comfort of a dedicated environment
Guaranteed stability and performance
You can get the very most out of your infrastructure, use 100% of your resources, and offer the guarantees you need for both your business and your customers.
