Private cloud · HCI · VDI
Private and hybrid cloud, built on Sangfor and hosted in the UAE.
Hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI), private IaaS, cloud disaster recovery and virtual desktops (VDI) — locally hosted and managed by Missan Global for UAE data residency. One accountable partner for the compute, storage and virtualisation your business runs on, with 22+ years in the UAE behind it.
What it is
A complete private cloud stack, delivered as a service.
Compute, storage, virtualisation, disaster recovery and virtual desktops — built on Sangfor and run for you, so your team consumes infrastructure instead of buying and maintaining it.
Hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI)
Compute, storage and virtualisation consolidated into one software-defined stack — replacing separate servers, SAN and hypervisor layers with a single system that scales node by node.
Private IaaS hosting
Virtual machines and capacity provisioned on demand across Starter, Business and Enterprise tiers, so you size infrastructure to the workload and grow without a hardware refresh.
Cloud disaster recovery
Your critical workloads replicated to Missan-managed infrastructure as a fully managed service, with defined recovery points and a plan that is tested, not assumed.
Virtual desktops (VDI)
Per-seat virtual desktops delivered from the private cloud — consistent, centrally managed and secured, so staff work the same way from the office, home or a branch.
Locally hosted in the UAE
A locally hosted option keeps your data and virtual machines inside the UAE for data-residency and compliance needs, with Missan responsible for the platform underneath.
Capacity tiers, sized to the workload
Starter, Business and Enterprise describe capability rather than price — Missan scopes the right tier around what you run today and scales it as the business grows.
Starter
Move one or two critical systems off ageing on-premises hardware — a controlled first step into private cloud.
Business
Run several production workloads together, with headroom to add capacity as the team and the estate grow.
Enterprise
Consolidate a larger estate onto one platform, with the performance and resilience heavier workloads demand.
Benefits
Why businesses move to private cloud.
The outcomes leadership actually cares about — lower fixed cost, a smaller estate to maintain, faster recovery and data kept in the UAE.
A smaller hardware footprint
HCI collapses separate servers, storage and networking into one stack, so you retire the traditional three-tier estate and the racks, power and cooling that come with it.
Predictable monthly OpEx
Consume infrastructure as an operating cost instead of funding large capital refreshes every few years — budgeting becomes steady and planning becomes easier.
Faster, provable recovery
Disaster recovery is built into the platform, so recovering a failed workload is a defined, tested procedure rather than a scramble across separate backup tools.
UAE data residency and local support
Your data and virtual machines can stay hosted in the UAE, backed by a Missan team that supports the platform locally — not a distant call centre in another time zone.
Private cloud works best as part of a whole: see infrastructure & systems integration, backup & disaster recovery and managed cybersecurity & MDR.
Cloud migration
A planned migration to private or hybrid cloud.
Missan plans and runs the move — assessing what you have, sequencing the migration and keeping the business running throughout. Where a hybrid model fits, we bridge to Microsoft Azure alongside your private cloud.
What a Missan migration covers
- Discovery and assessment of your current servers, virtual machines and workloads
- A sequenced plan built around dependencies, risk and downtime windows
- Workloads moved onto Sangfor HCI or private IaaS, validated before cutover
- Backup and disaster recovery configured from day one, not bolted on later
- Documented handover, then ongoing management once you are live
Private, hybrid, or a bridge to Azure
Not every workload belongs in the same place. Missan runs your core estate on private cloud for control and data residency, and can bridge to Microsoft Azure where a hybrid or public-cloud service fits better.
- Private cloud for the workloads that need control and residency
- Microsoft Azure for the services better suited to public cloud
- One migration plan, with Missan accountable for both
For decision makers
Sangfor is the security and infrastructure spine underneath Missan.
For boards weighing a server refresh or a move to cloud: consolidate the estate, host it in the UAE, and be able to prove recovery — not just promise it.
A single, secured platform
Sangfor is Missan's infrastructure and security spine — as a Sangfor Gold Partner (Middle East), we run compute, networking and protection as one governed platform rather than a patchwork.
Consolidate the server estate
Replace ageing, sprawling three-tier hardware with one hyperconverged stack — fewer moving parts, less to patch and a smaller attack surface to defend.
Disaster recovery you can prove
Recovery is defined, documented and tested, so leadership has evidence the business can come back from an incident — not an untested assumption.
Hosted and supported in the UAE
A locally hosted platform for data residency, supported by a UAE-based team with 22+ years behind it and 5,000+ client engagements since 2004.
Sangfor private cloud — questions
What UAE businesses ask us most.
What is HCI?
Hyperconverged infrastructure combines compute, storage and virtualisation into a single software-defined stack that runs on standard nodes. Instead of buying separate servers, a SAN and a hypervisor, you scale by adding nodes — which simplifies management and shrinks the hardware footprint.
Is my data kept in the UAE?
It can be. Missan offers a locally hosted option that keeps your data and virtual machines inside the UAE, which helps with data-residency and compliance requirements. We confirm where each workload sits as part of the design.
Can you migrate our existing servers and VMs?
Yes. Missan assesses your current servers and virtual machines, plans a sequenced migration around dependencies and downtime, and moves workloads onto Sangfor HCI or private IaaS — validating each one before cutover and keeping the business running throughout.
Do you manage it after go-live?
Yes. The platform is delivered as a managed service — Missan runs monitoring, updates, backup and disaster recovery, and remains the single point of accountability after go-live, with reporting to leadership.
How does the DR work?
Critical workloads are replicated to Missan-managed infrastructure with defined recovery points. If something fails, recovery follows a documented, tested procedure to bring systems back — and we test it rather than assume it works.
See your IT risk clearly — before it costs you.
The free Missan IT health check (AED 1,800 value) gives leadership a practical view of support, security, Microsoft 365, backup and continuity gaps — in one structured session.
