Frequently asked questions<\/h2>

Magic Cloud is a home-grown cloud specialist that takes care of its customers and their cloud environment. With high quality cloud solutions and proactive service, we ensure that your cloud environment is clean, efficient and secure - supporting your business growth. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

What is the difference between managed virtual servers and a traditional server environment?<\/h4>

In managed virtual servers, the responsibility for the maintenance, security and ongoing monitoring of the environment lies with the service provider. This means that updates, monitoring, debugging and development suggestions are handled on your behalf. <\/p>\n

In a traditional server environment, these responsibilities are largely left to your own organisation, tying up IT resources for maintenance tasks.<\/p>\n

In addition, a virtual server environment scales flexibly according to needs, whereas a traditional environment often requires proactive capacity acquisition and investment.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

What exactly is the service?<\/h4>

The service covers the entire virtual server environment:<\/p>\n
