Microsoft Azure Stack HCI Cloud

Azure Stack HCI is a hybrid cloud service launched in 2020 by Microsoft and delivered as part of the Azure platform services. Based on Hyper-Converged Infrastructure (HCI), Microsoft provides a private cloud solution natively connected to the Azure public cloud. This allows you to run many Azure services in the local environment (virtual machines, containers, databases, monitoring systems, automation, Azure platform security, VDI, backup, DRC, Machine Learning).

Azure Stack HCI cloud from Beyond.pl is billed at a fixed monthly fee. Meanwhile, Azure services running in the Azure Stack HCI environment are billed in a standard “by usage” model as part of the Microsoft Azure subscription provided by Beyond.pl.

Beyond.pl is the first Microsoft partner in Poland to offer Azure Stack HCI from a Data Center located in Poland, and the first representative in the CEE region who have been accepted into the “Azure Stack Authorized Partner” program.

In addition, we provide services to integrate Azure Stack HCI with your current IT environment, both public and private cloud solutions, as well as infrastructure maintained in the off-premise or on-premise model.

Azure Stack HCI is a locally hosted cloud. Customers get an optimally efficient cloud environment with the lowest possible latency. Besides, Stack HCI meets the key requirements for data privacy and location of data processing under Polish regulations.

Individual Azure Stack HCI clusters located in different geographical locations are combined into one geographically distributed cluster, centrally managed from the Azure Portal. This approach ensures the highest possible level of security thanks to data synchronization between various data centers.

Who is Azure Stack HCI hybrid cloud for?

The launch of Azure Stack HCI is Microsoft’s answer to the needs of companies that want to use Azure cloud services on a dedicated infrastructure. This approach guarantees customers faster service availability, greater security through a dedicated infrastructure, and compliance with local regulations. Companies in finance, healthcare, public institutions, and any enterprise requiring greater control over their environment can currently benefit from the potential and capabilities of Azure through the Stack HCI hybrid cloud.

Azure Stack HCI is a new alternative for companies looking for infrastructure for business-critical systems. The service can be deployed either by a company using Azure public cloud solutions or by enterprises just planning to leverage the potential of cloud solutions.
