Pulsant launches Partner Cloud

IaaS offering forms core of new UK partner recruitment drive.

Pulsant has introduced Partner Cloud, an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) offering, targeted directly at partners looking to diversify their portfolios, expand their cloud reach and enhance service offerings to access new market opportunities.

Opening this cloud capability is central to a bold partner recruitment drive, in line with Pulsant’s managed service provider (MSP) programme ambitions. Partner Cloud will put the full power of Pulsant’s platformEDGE infrastructure, directly into the hands of partners. These facilities, networked by a low-latency fabric, deliver compute and connectivity services across the UK and beyond.

As part of the financial benefits for partners, Partner Cloud offers transparent, predictable pricing with a pledge of no unexpected costs, microcharges, egress or change fees. Industry-leading partner pricing will enable additional margin opportunity, backed by Pulsant’s commitment to a monthly operational expenditure model that sees billing start only from the point of service deployment.

Operationally, in the first phase of partner engagement, Pulsant will commit to a 24-hour SLA to create new services, and a subsequent 4-hour SLA for any modifications to existing services. Once both the partner and Pulsant are confident in their use of the platformEDGE infrastructure, Pulsant will transition the partner to self-service provisioning via a dedicated cloud management portal.

Wendy Shearer, Director of Partnerships and Ecosystems for Pulsant said: “Service providers have different requirements to end users. They need consistent, competitive pricing for commercial advantage. They need an incredibly rapid response from partners, and they need confidence when building their solutions. This is what we have created with Partner Cloud.

“Managed service providers and partners know they need to move fast, to capture the opportunities offered by developing UK sovereign services, or artificial intelligence. Existing and prospective partners alike recognise that it is far easier and quicker to use Pulsant infrastructure rather than investing time, effort and money into their own platforms.

“As a dedicated digital infrastructure partner, we can provide a resilient and robust foundation for these accelerated capabilities. This enables our partners to focus on core services so they get a faster time to revenue.”
