Basic characteristics of Atman VMware Cloud
Atman VMware Cloud is a fully functional local cloud platform based on VMware – the world’s leading virtualization technology. You’ve got all components needed to build any cloud environment you want, compatible with other components of your IT infrastructure that uses VMware. You manage your resources freely and conveniently through the VMware Cloud Director panel or an API.
You may focus on your business development, because you’ve entrusted us – the data center market leader in Poland – with the maintenance of a secure and high-availability infrastructure. The Atman VMware Cloud platform is located in a professional data center in Warsaw that holds an EPI DCOS-4 certificate. Also, it meets the requirements of the Tier III standard for data centers, and even exceeds them.
Quickly migrate your VMware environment from your local data center to Atman VMware Cloud with our free vCloud Availability module. You can also use it to build a disaster recovery (DR) solution.
Our two data centers have disk arrays connected in an active-active metro cluster. This increases the security of your data thanks to the continuous process of data replication between the arrays, because if one of the arrays fails, your data will still be on the other array that is working, and the environment will continue to operate without any changes. In fact, you may not even notice if one of the arrays fails!

What are your billing options?
With Atman VMware Cloud, you have the choice of two billing models – a fixed monthly fee (subscription) and a pay-as-you-go (PAYG) model based on resource consumption.
Fixed monthly fees (subscription)
How does it work?
You determine the size of resources that Atman allocates to the environment. Every month you pay a fixed subscription fee for these resources.
It is worth using it if:
- Your environment is working constantly, 24 hours a day.
- You have a specified monthly budget for IT resources.
- You want to deal with the server environment as little as possible after running it.
Variable consumption fees (PAYG)
How does it work?
You don’t declare usage. You only pay for the resources used.
It is worth using when:
- You do not know your environment’s demand for resources.
- You know that your infrastructure works seasonally.
- You often run test, development and experimental environments.
Comparison of the settlement models:
Monthly fees | Consumption fees (PAYG) | |
Price: | 20% discount on PAYG price | 100% |
Fees for: | RAM, vCPU, Storage, IP addresses, Microsoft Server licenses | |
Settlement period: | Month | |
Settlement method: | In advance | In arrears |
Time unit: | Month | Hour |
Unit of RAM resource: | 1 GB | 1 GB, running machine |
Unit of vCPU resource | 1 vCPU | 1 vCPU, running machine |
Unit of Storage resource | 1 GB | 1 GB of assigned space |
Unit of IP address resource | 1 address | 1 assigned address |
Microsoft Server licence | 1 licence for 2 vCPUs | 1 licence for 2 vCPUs, running machine |
You can also combine both types of billing: subscription + PAYG
Resources that you need constantly are billed with a monthly subscription fee, and those that you use in excess of the subscription values are billed per hour of use in the PAYG model.
This solution combines cost optimization with operational flexibility. If you suddenly need more computing power than your subscription allows, you can add a new virtual machine or more cloud resources with just a few clicks.
