What is Zen Cloud IaaS and why does it matter?
Zen Cloud IaaS gives you on demand access to secure, scalable virtualised computing resources in the cloud (hosted in Zen’s UK data centres), making it an ideal alternative to on-premises hardware or hyperscale cloud providers.
IaaS removes the cost and complexity of running your own infrastructure. You keep control of your virtual machines and applications while we look after the platform, availability and underlying infrastructure. You can scale quickly, control spend, improve resilience and keep critical services online without the burden of managing hardware. A flexible foundation for hosting applications, supporting growth and keeping your business agile.
