SERVICE OVERVIEW
XO Enterprise Cloud
Deliver secure, agile, and efficient cloud computing services
on demand using the XO Tier III data centers and private,
nationwide network.
Make a Smarter Move to the Cloud
Today’s CIOs and IT departments require an efficient and secure cloud infrastructure
that is agile enough to empower fast innovation and stimulate business revenue.
XO Enterprise Cloud is an enterprise-grade, virtual private cloud platform that quickly
delivers Cloud Infrastructure as a Service—as it enhances security and control of the
underlying data center environment.
XO Enterprise Cloud:
• Allows authorized employees to self-manage their own pools of cloud computing
resources “on net”—without experiencing the delays and costs associated with
adding new IT hardware and software.
• Gives you more control and visibility of the computing environment when integrated
with the XO intelligent WAN solution.
• Hosts cloud computing infrastructure within top tier data centers that are fully
managed by XO to enhance security and maximize performance.
• Enables Infrastructure and Operations (I&O) teams to better manage the
comprehensive business continuity needs for the entire organization.
Control Efficiency, Balance Competing Priorities
By integrating cloud computing into your XO private network, your managed cloud
computing platform resides separate from the public Internet. This enables you to
apply existing IT security policies within the corporate Local Area Network (LAN) out
to your cloud environments.
Since the cloud computing environment becomes an extension of your private
network, you minimize the need to add IT infrastructure and staff to manage the
space. This allows you to redirect your resources to core business projects instead.
Count on the XO intelligent Wide Area Network (WAN) solution to ensure that your
cloud computing environment has the bandwidth capacity, availability, and low latency
that’s required to optimize cloud service performance.

services, virtualization-aware security, simplified application deployment and
enforced boundaries required by compliance standards. Advance services also
available: Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN), Virtual Private Network (VPN), firewall
high availability, network isolation, and web load balancing
• Network Security: Uses Fortinet® appliances that provide broad, integrated
and high-performance protection against dynamic security threats and intrusion
Detection and Prevention System (IDPS)
• Cloud Computing Environment Security: can include secure private network
connectivity for each of your virtual data centers, dedicated use of space, and
role-based security access to different cloud-computing workloads
• Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Options: with optional Cloud Vault
service offering that provides data backup and disaster recovery capabilities to help
reduce downtime within the context of your overall business continuity and disaster
recovery plan.

Choose from Flexible, Tiered Service Options
With XO Enterprise Cloud, you can scale, control and secure your cloud services
and applications according to your business needs.
We understand that you have employees who want to use cloud computing resources
for different reasons. XO provides multiple options, each with its own cost, guarantee,
and security structure based on requirements—so you only pay for the cloud
resources you need, when you need them.
You have the flexibility to determine how you want to use your cloud resources,
and can manage your multiple environments from one, secure web-based portal.
For example, you can group your resources into organizations that represent different
groups such as business units, divisions, teams, or by priority of application.
Each defined group can have isolated virtual compute resources, independent
sign-on authentication, specific policy controls, and unique catalogs of application
templates. Multiple areas may share the same cloud platform, but their cloud
resources are virtually partitioned and operate independently. All of this is controlled
via an easy to use portal.
XO Provides
• Network connection for each pool of cloud computing resources through secure
Internet or an MPLS IP-VPN connection
• Monitoring and management of the underlying network and virtual private cloud
platform infrastructure
• Computing capacity that supports 1 Gbps bandwidth per virtual machine,
and scales up to 32 GHz, 512 GB RAM and 120 TB per server
• Standard catalog of operating systems at the click of a button including Microsoft
Windows®, RedHat®, CentOS® and popular application sofware: Microsoft
SQL Server®, Sharepoint®
• Includes advanced security services such as VXLAN, client and site-to-site VPN,
firewall, network isolation and load balancing as you need
• OPTIONAL Solid State Drive (SSD) flash-enabled Storage or full SSD to optimize
performance of critical applications
• Cloud migration support
• OPTIONAL server backup and disaster recovery offering
• OPTIONAL use of VMWare VCloud Connector to seamlessly migrate application
workloads to your virtual private cloud platforms
You Provide
• Applications as needed for your use
• Firewall policy configurations
