Managed Hosting
Our Managed Hosting services take responsibility for your IT estate, delivering assured efficiency and cost-savings, and letting you focus on your core business.
Cable&Wireless Worldwide hosts your IT estate in our secure data centres, giving you greater flexibility and access to the latest technologies. This allows you to create your ideal IT infrastructure without the need to make a significant capital investment or tying up your resources in managing the infrastructure yourself.
You'll also benefit from our policy of continual improvement, ensuring your IT services are always hosted by highly advanced and reassuringly reliable Data Centres.
Our Managed Hosting is matched precisely to your needs, creating a solution that's right for you now and adapts easily as your business develops and grows.
How It Works
We offer a broad range of managed services across both traditional IT (servers, operating systems, LAN, load balancers, storage and security) and emerging technologies, such as virtualisation.
You can access whatever you need from our end-to-end service, from consultancy and design to 24/7 support. Our expert analysis, audit and consultancy identifies suitable candidates for virtualisation. Based on this information, we design the platform your business really needs, and draw up migration plans. We then install it in our data centre, configure to your specification, carrying out all testing required before migrating services and applications from your legacy infrastructure, including any physical to virtual migration. The whole process is efficient and seamless.
Benefits
Choosing Managed Hosting with Cable&Wireless Worldwide saves you significant capital investment and typically around 15% of your running costs. Consolidation and virtualisation can increase those savings to around 30%.
Managed Hosting makes running your business simpler. There's a single point of accountability, from your office LAN, via an IP WAN to your applications in our data centres. As well as freeing up your own resources, you gain access to the latest technologies, and the flexibility to develop a solution that evolves with your changing business needs - guided by our expert consultants.
All of this service is provided with proactive monitoring and management, reassuring 24/7 support and service levels of up to 100% availability. You can be confident we have the scale to deliver. We already support thousands of managed devices for our customers, and our UK and Ireland data centres have high capacity connectivity and at least 100Mb/s resilient connections across a minimum of two fibre routes.
