3. Windows Server 2003 R2 End-of-Life
Windows Server 2003 support will end on July 14th, 2015.
What does end of support mean for you? After July 14th, Microsoft will no longer issue security
updates for any version of Windows Server 2003. If you are still running Windows Server 2003 in
your data centre, you need to take steps now to plan and execute a migration strategy to protect
your infrastructure and to ensure you remain compliant with business regulations.
Windows Server 2012 R2 is the recommended replacement operating system for long-term
support and development.
By migrating to Windows Server virtual machines running in Virtual Data Centre, Interoute’s IaaS
cloud platform, you can achieve concrete benefits, including improved performance, reduced
maintenance requirements, private networking of your VMs, and increased agility and speed of
response for your business.

6. Generic cloud networking
SDN and other
technologies provide a
pseudo-private
environment; in reality it
is just tunneling over the
insecure, non-guaranteed
Internet.
Between zones there is no
guarantee, SLA or security.

8. Multiple infrastructure options: Providing huge flexibility
Interoute Virtual Data Centre differentiates by
offering an alternative for building
infrastructure without compromising security,
availability, speed or control
• IaaS shared infrastructure: Providing full
compute power for all general computing
requirements, with no contended RAM
• Dedicated blades: To provide full CPU
performance and work within licensing
requirements
• Colocation: For all non-‘cloud ready’ servers
or assets that are still depreciating
All standard

9. VDC Connect: Connect to Interoute VDC for free*
Hybrid cloud, but private
Extend your existing infrastructure into Interoute VDC in over 300 locations in
Europe using private, high bandwidth, low latency circuits - enabling you to
build a hybrid cloud of existing infrastructure and cloud IaaS without traversing
the Internet.
*With any VDC Committed Service package, we provide our 1Gbps port for
free, you just need to cross-connect to it.
10. Dedicated private network

Your existing
infrastructure
Integrated IaaS: Network-based compute
Not only does Interoute VDC come with its own free
global connectivity it also seamlessly integrates with
your existing environments with free 1Gb/s
interconnects.
• Complete digital Integration: By integrating your
existing network with VDC your cloud is
immediately private by default
• Public/Private/Hybrid: All are possible with one
integrated platform
• Totally secure: No need for any services to touch
the Internet that don’t require it
• Guaranteed performance: Uncontended network
from VDC data centre to your own network estate
• Provider flexibility: Move from or integrate with
any IaaS, cloud or network vendor with ease
• No hidden charges: We don’t charge for any
network or IOPS

11. Location, Location, Location = Low Latency, High Throughput
This means: more web requests per server instance therefore fewer servers so less money
Or higher throughput so you get more for the same money
High availability as standard – disaster AVERSION NOT RECOVERY
Infrastructure integration is faster and cheaper to achieve
Data centre location is critical for the overall performance of your infrastructure. If your business is in Italy or
Spain, for example, moving data back and forth to Ireland or the Netherlands introduces significant latency to all of
your operations.
Interoute VDC has an unrivalled distribution of data centres across Europe, located in key business cities. All are
inter-connected by Interoute’s own private and fast optic fibre network.
Data centre locations in Europe (Information correct at 14/5/2015)
Amazon Web Services: Dublin, Frankfurt
Rackspace: London, Crawley
Azure: Dublin, Amsterdam
Interoute VDC: London 1, London 2, Slough, Amsterdam, Berlin, Frankfurt, Geneva, Madrid, Milan, Paris, Zurich
12. Interoute VDC removes the complexity of
multi-site High Availability setups, making
development simple and easy
• No IP addressing headaches
• No routing needs to be setup by the
customer
• No complex security is required –
networks are private
• Performance is optimal due to huge
bandwidth and low latency
• No charges for bandwidth

14. Total flexibility
• Pay only for RAM, CPU & storage
• No fixed virtual machine instances – you choose the RAM and CPU for each virtual machine
• Charges based on total compute resource
• Global flat rate pricing – every zone has the same pricing
• No network or IOPS charges – totally predictable
Competitive pricing structure
• Utility (pay-as-you-go) for flexible compute requirements
• Discounts for higher monthly spend
• Enhanced discounts for longer-term committed infrastructure
