Cloud Migration Options:
IBM Power Virtual Server or CloudFirst ezHost?

IBM Power Virtual Server

Modernize and migrate mission-critical workloads to the cloud on a pay-as-you-go basis. IBM PowerVS is a family of configurable multi-tenant virtual IBM Power servers with access to a variety of IBM Cloud Services. Accelerate hybrid cloud and AI adoption with a secure, scalable, and flexible platform managed as a service by a trusted IBM data center, on-site, or off-premises environment of your choosing.

IBM PowerVS streamlines IT operations, offers predictable pricing and keeps you in control of data, enhancing compliance. IBM PowerVS integrates with existing compute resources and is managed through a unified user interface.

AIX

CloudFirst ezHost

Eliminate the headaches and costs of legacy hardware by running your mission-critical applications on our fully managed, highly secure, enterprise cloud. CloudFirst’s IBM cloud hosting solution (ezHost), provides scalable compute, storage, and network resources at a fixed monthly cost.

CloudFirst’s IBM-certified support team is dedicated to your organization. We proactively monitor, manage, and update all aspects of your systems 24×7, getting to know your business and building trusted relationships, freeing your staff to focus on other IT priorities.
