Leap Solutions Asia offers lower Public Cloud service fees and free Managed Service to benefit SMEs and Start-up users

Thailand’s cloud computing market is witnessing the increasingly tough competition. Leap Solutions Asia Co., Ltd. (LSA) recently adjusted its business strategies by lowering its service fees for Public Cloud and providing free Managed Service in order to encourage greater numbers of users to migrate to its cloud system, which is supported by advanced technology from Japan and high operational standards, in today’s era of digital transformation.

Leap Solutions Asia: Thailand’s leading cloud service provider

Leap Solutions Asia has operated since 2016 as a joint venture between T.C.C. Technology Co., Ltd. (TCCtech), Thailand’s leading provider of premium datacenters, and Internet Initiative Japan (IIJ), Japan’s tier 1 Internet Service Provider and leading Cloud Service Provider, which specifically serves enterprise customers in many countries worldwide. Leap’s cloud services currently available in Thailand cover:

• Leap GIO Public – Public Cloud service for enterprises seeking a small to medium-scale cloud system to facilitate development of web applications and software testing at the development and production levels.
• Leap Gio Private – Private Cloud service for enterprises seeking a large-scale cloud system, plus additional advanced services to accommodate Mission Critical Applications of organizations.
• SAP Cloud – Private Cloud service to facilitate SAP applications, maintained by the Leap team which is highly competent in SAP Cloud, to assist customers in bringing down hardware costs with flexible scalability features.
• Oracle Cloud – Private Cloud service for enterprises that mainly use Oracle technologies and want to change their investment style from CapEx to The Oracle Cloud system ideally serves as Platform as a Service (PaaS).

Cloud system with advanced stability

Since the commercial launch of Leap GIO Public, Leap has taken pride in its highly-stable cloud system, which differentiates it from other cloud service providers both at home and abroad, who are known to encounter disruptions in services from time to time for various reasons.

Leap’s highly-stable cloud system is the result of the winning combination of a meticulously-designed full redundancy operating system in all aspects of hardware, software, and network, ‘No Single Point of Failure’ cloud infrastructure, 24-hour technical support delivered by Leap’s team of professionals, as well as competent system maintenance and solutions to effectively prevent and cope with downtime issues.

Leap has also selected enterprise-grade hardware for its servers and SAN Storage to be compatible with Mission-Critical Applications, as well as VMware, Citrix, and CloudStack for its software. Compared to other cloud service providers that emphasize cost-saving operation with the entire use of Open Source Software that frequently leads to downtime problems from unexpected software malfunctions, Leap, through the use of enterprise-grade cloud technologies, provides its customers with starkly contrasting performance, including distinctly lower rates of downtime and greater customer reliability.

Enterprise customers can rest assured of Leap’s quality cloud services, which are certified to the ISO/IEC 20000-1:2011 and ISO/IEC 27001:2013 standards, as well as the cloud system’s extreme security and stability with a guaranteed Service Level Agreement (SLA) of 99.99% uptime.

Free Managed Service to ensure ease of use

Nowadays, cloud service providers usually come with their own cloud technologies. Although ‘user-friendly’ cloud services are generally promoted as a strong selling point for each brand, it is inevitable that users, regardless of the brand they have selected, learn the basic essentials of how the cloud system works, how to set up parameters and how to manage applications. Sometimes, users are unable to set up parameters by themselves or use the service at all, as the cloud system is too complicated.

With years of experience in serving a diverse spectrum of customers, Leap clearly understands this problem. The company accordingly provides free Managed Service, with an additional 5 ticket requests per month for a period of two years for new customers performing data transmission via Leap GIO Public. During the promotion period, customers can specify the requirements of the system to be installed on the cloud. The Leap team will then build the system and install operating and network systems, firewall security system, and Load Balancer, as well as set up Backup parameters so that customers can further install applications and perform data migration themselves to begin using the service easily. With this additional service, customers need not learn how to execute the cloud technologies at first but can take their time to familiarize themselves with the technologies.

Leap also offers Professional Service to better meet customer requirements concerning the use of several other applications on the cloud system. Simultaneously, the company has specifically developed a tool to ensure smooth and hassle-free data migration, no matter whether the customer’s former system ran on On-premises, Amazon Web Services (AWS) or Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Customers looking for the most advanced tailor-made cloud services are always welcome to discuss their requirements with the Leap team.

Unlimited bandwidth to enable cost-effective and smooth data transfer in Thailand

Having served a number of enterprise customers over the years and developing a deep understanding of their needs, Leap fully realizes that a good cloud service should enable customers to estimate their costs easily. In Thailand, cloud computing is primarily used as a substitute for the company’s datacenters and backup datacenters for Disaster Recovery (DR). Recognizing data transfer usually requires a great amount of bandwidth at all times, however, Leap has announced ‘No Service Charge’ applicable to bandwidth uploads and downloads in Thailand.

With the strong advantage of unlimited bandwidth, Leap GIO Public facilitates a wide variety of applications, such as Video Streaming, Cloud CCTV, Cloud Storage and Internet of Things (IoT). These allow system integrators and start-ups to choose from various provided applications to launch their cloud services or solutions in order to fully meet their business needs and customer preferences in Thailand.
