MRC Unmanaged Cloud (MRC IaaS)

With our unmanaged cloud product, you can build and maintain the environment to your own custom needs. You have full control over the configuration and operation, but this comes with the added responsibility of having to look after the machine yourself – you have to install your own security patches and software updates, set up your own security groups, maintain your own backups and so on. Crucially, you have to actively safeguard the machine’s cybersecurity so that it can’t be hacked and used as a backdoor into the University’s systems.
