More About VPLS
VPLS operates as a managed service provider focused on enterprise and institutional IT infrastructure, combining managed services, cloud platforms, and colocation in a single portfolio. Organizations use VPLS to host workloads, extend internal IT capabilities, and obtain operational support for core infrastructure without building or staffing all capabilities in-house. Engagements typically span network connectivity, data center placement, compute and storage hosting, and ongoing monitoring and management.
The company’s cloud and hosting services (cloud infrastructure) generally center on virtualized compute and storage resources that can be deployed as private or hybrid cloud environments. These offerings are designed for applications that require predictable performance, data residency control, and integration with existing enterprise networks. VPLS typically relies on standard virtualization stacks, enterprise hypervisors, and common operating systems to support workloads ranging from line-of-business applications to web services and virtual desktops.
VPLS colocation services (data center and colocation) provide physical rack space, power, and cooling within carrier-connected facilities. Enterprises use these sites to deploy custom hardware, converge on a regional hub for latency-sensitive applications, or create Disaster Recovery (DR) locations. Colocation is often combined with VPLS network services to connect sites, cloud environments, and end users. Connectivity options usually include internet access, transport links, and cross-connects to carriers and service partners, aligned with standard networking protocols and enterprise routing practices.
Managed IT services (managed infrastructure) from VPLS typically cover administration of servers, storage, virtual machines, and network devices, with monitoring, patching, and incident response bundled into Service Level Agreements (SLAs). These offerings are used by organizations that want predictable operational support with defined escalation paths and reporting. Security-related services often integrate with these managed layers and may include firewall administration, intrusion monitoring, backup, and recovery workflows.
Within an enterprise technology directory, VPLS can be categorized under managed service providers, cloud infrastructure hosting, data center and colocation, and enterprise connectivity services. Its portfolio aligns with IT infrastructure management, hybrid cloud hosting, and network services, where customers look to consolidate vendors for hosting, connectivity, and day-to-day operations across on-premises (on-prem), colocated, and virtualized environments.
