How Total Can Help

Private Cloud provides you with a flexible, easy and cost-effective way of providing the computing resource you need to run your systems.

Developing and operating your own data centre is costly, more so if you build in effective back-up and fully functional DR. Total’s Private Cloud Platform gives you flexible access to enterprise-class cloud computing, to either augment or replace your existing data centre (DC).

Why work with Total?


Total provides you with managed, highly available virtual machines in a highly resilient logical DC. Two physically separate, best-in-class DCs are connected, with multi-path Tier 1 connectivity, to create a single logical DC, with automatic failover between the physical DCs.

Total’s Private Cloud Platform combines technical expertise, investment in Tier 1 technologies and service delivery excellence with very attractive prices.

A holistic design brings networking, connectivity and infrastructure together to combine two physical DCs into a single logical DC, enabling seamless, live replication. This compares with the approach taken by most other UK providers which operate a single DC combined with a secondary technology, such as storage replication, to make an out-of-sync copy to a secondary DC.

The service is delivered to ISO 9001, 14000, 20000 and 27001 requirements.

Taking Care of Technology

There's a greater demand than ever for businesses to utilise technology and we are here to make that process simple.

Richard Farrant

IT Director,
The Howard de Walden Estate

Total has moved us from what was our on-prem solution into the Azure Cloud – so that’s all of our services, all of our servers now sit within the Azure cloud – we’ve also moved from Exchange locally onto Office 365.

Case Studies

We measure our success on positive outcomes and customer excellence.

DLG needed to quickly shift from an office-based organisation to the vast majority of its employees working from home. DLG chose Total to support them on their journey.

Following an internal IT assessment, it was clear the organisation was facing challenges. It became critical to prioritise the planning and delivery of a fully managed IT service.

SPAR UK’s central office needed a technology provider that could act as a reliable, trusted partner, and work as a one-stop shop to meet the company’s IT needs.
