Built on the most reliable hardware, with the latest and best technologies

We originally built the Neural cloud to run our own critical applications and services that operate our communications network – so no compromise was been made and no expense spared. What we’ve built is one of Australia’s most reliable and powerful cloud platforms to date.

    • IBM – the most trusted hardware manufacturer worldwide
    • NetApp – world leader in storage equipment and technologies
    • Juniper Networks – leading manufacturer of telco-grade network infrasturcture

Faster than your average cloud

  • A typical host machine in our cloud consists of:

    • Dual 6-core / 8-core CPU’s
    • 48GB ECC RAM
    • Dual RAID 1 SSD’s for host operating system
    • 4 x Intel Dual-Port GigE Virtualisation Server Network Adaptors uplinked to dual Juniper EX4200’s
    • 4 x Redundant path’s to SAN storage for VM’s, via 2 independant storage switches

  • Our storage infrasturcture is comprised of NetApp Filer FAS-series SAN’s, each with a tier-based structure of SAS and SATA disks. Cloud server space is provisioned to the optimal spindles for maximum throughput and minimal disk latency based on your application.’s throughput, latency and space requirements.

     

Works with your operating system

  • “Our cloud is powered by VMware technologies, giving it the power and flexibility to run almost all modern operating systems including Windows (all editions 2003+), Linux (most flavours), Solaris and BSD. You can even bring your own pre-cooked server in VMDK or OVF format. “

  • Officially supported operating systems include:

    • Windows Server 2008 / 2012 (all editions, except server core)
    • Debian / Ubuntu
    • CentOS / RHEL
    • FreeBSD / OpenBSD
    • Solaris / Opensolaris
    • SCO

Neural provides a “no compromise” approach to cloud server infrastructure – ticking all the boxes to create Australia’s premier cloud platform.
