Climate change, and the resulting increase in climate-related weather events, are top of mind for consumers and business leaders alike. It impacts industries like energy/utilities and agriculture, but it can also impact supply chains and operations of other organizations, as well, as Harvard Business School students discovered last year. 

OVHcloud recently helped Baylor University, located in Waco, Texas, make a seamless transition to the cloud. Baylor manages a large amount of data for its students, alumni and faculty – as such, having redundancy with both an onsite data center and off-site cloud environment for back-up and recovery was extremely important to their success.

Hot migration is the process of moving an active workload from one data center to another. There are a few scenarios where hot migration would be applicable, but the most popular include extending or replacing a data center or implementing a disaster recovery plan.

Public cloud dominates the cloud Infrastructure-as-a-Service discussion, but for many companies, the risks and challenges of moving to the public cloud outweigh the potential benefits. Here, we explore some of those challenges and present an alternative viewpoint to the public cloud hype.

OVHcloud has lowered prices considerably in the US, and that could be good news for web hosting providers and resellers.

OVHcloud has announced new everyday low prices for its line of dedicated servers in a strategy aimed at bringing more US customers in to the OVHcloud environment.

Today, we are excited to announce OVHcloud Public Cloud Service is now available for our U.S. customers.

Manufacturers share many of the same business and technology requirements as firms in other industries, but chief among those are, speed, scale and accuracy. These are typically among the top benefits users cite in survey after survey as their rationale for migrating their apps and workloads to the cloud.

Our first OVHcloud Analyst Day was a great success! With Hurricane Florence’s impending arrival on the East Coast, there was some worry of cancellation, but thankfully, a change in weather allowed for us to continue as planned and analysts from the US, Canada and even the UK were able to fly in and spend the day getting to know OVHcloud.

We’re proud to announce that the Business Intelligence Group has awarded Russell P. Reeder, president and CEO of OVHcloud, a 2018 Stratus Award as a “Top Executive” for Cloud Computing in their annual business award program.

Good question, and we’re here to answer it. In the 90’s, if you were at a New Kids On The Block concert and someone asked if you knew what ‘the cloud’ was, you’d probably answer something along the lines of, “The clouds? They block the sun and produce rain. Why are you asking me this in the middle of a concert?” Nowadays, that question has a more complicated answer. Unless you work in the tech industry, there is a pretty good chance that you’ve heard of it, but you are not exactly sure what it is. That’s where we come in, to help you better understand the cloud.

As little as a few years ago, it would have been impossible to predict the explosion of cloud computing and its enormous impact on the enterprise. A recent report from 451 Research indicates that by 2019, 60 percent of IT workloads will run in the cloud, and that number is sure to grow rapidly. But as more organizations turn toward the cloud, their workloads are simultaneously becoming more complex, diverse and personalized.
