The foundation for Layered Tech’s Virtual Private Data Center (VPDC)
is the GridLayer
The Grid Layer transforms an array of high-performance servers, storage devices and other IT resources into a cloud computing platform that can be dynamically scaled to meet the demands of your business.
With the Grid Layer, our customers can virtualize not just servers, but also load balancers, firewalls and switches in a high availability environment.
Off-the-shelf operating systems and applications are fully compatible with the Grid Layer. Running your applications on the Grid Layer is actually far simpler than using traditional hardware because you do not need to deploy, configure or maintain actual physical or software resources. When you run an application on the Grid Layer’s VPDC, all of the needed resources are automatically assembled and configured on demand.
When you need additional performance, it takes just minutes to increase the resources available to your application, giving you optimum control and flexibility. Since your VPDC is independent of hardware, all you need to assemble and manage applications is a browser – and you can control your VPDC from anywhere in the world.
The Grid Layer utilizes 3Tera’s breakthrough AppLogic technology, packaging your entire multi-tier application or service into a logical entity and managing it as a single system. AppLogic is the first grid operating system that is designed for web applications and is optimized for transactional and I/O-intensive workloads. It uses advanced virtualization technologies to ensure complete compatibility with existing operating systems, middleware and applications. Additionally, off-the-shelf OS and applications are fully compatible within The Grid Layer.
Finally, virtual server volumes are mirrored to multiple nodes within the grid, ensuring complete redundancy that is far superior to dedicated server offerings.
As with its other hosted products, Layered Tech brings to bear its proven experience, world-class, high-availability data centers, and highly trained technical staff to your IT needs.
