NxtGen Cloud IaaS, officially branded as Elastic Cloud Services (ECS), is the foundational infrastructure-as-a-service offering from NxtGen — India's sovereign cloud platform founded in 2004 in Bengaluru. ECS provides enterprises with on-demand access to virtualised compute (vCPUs and RAM), high-performance NVMe SSD storage, and software-defined networking via VMware NSX — all orchestrated through the VMware Cloud Director self-service portal.
Unlike hyperscalers where IaaS is one of 200+ services, NxtGen ECS is the core platform — purpose-engineered for Indian enterprise workloads. The infrastructure runs on VMware vSphere (hypervisor), vSAN (software-defined storage with NVMe), and NSX (software-defined networking with microsegmentation). This VMware-native architecture is what makes NxtGen the preferred IaaS platform for Indian enterprises already running VMware on-premises — because migration is a seamless "extend" rather than a disruptive "re-platform."
NxtGen ECS offers five standardised tiers — from Ignite Starter (10 vCPUs, 16 GB RAM, 500 GB NVMe) through Storm Max (48 vCPUs, 128 GB RAM, 1.5 TB NVMe) — plus fully custom configurations for enterprises that need specific resource allocations. All tiers include unlimited bandwidth, DDoS protection, vSphere HA (automatic VM restart on host failure), and 99.99% uptime SLA. Billing is in INR with GST — no USD conversion, no egress surprises.
The "Infinite Datacenter" architecture extends the IaaS value proposition further — NxtGen IaaS customers can seamlessly connect their on-premises VMware infrastructure to NxtGen's cloud, creating a unified hybrid compute environment. Workloads migrate between on-prem and cloud via vMotion without IP changes or application reconfiguration. As an Authorized NxtGen Cloud Partner in India, PrecisionTech deploys, migrates, and manages NxtGen IaaS environments — from VM sizing and NVMe storage architecture through 24×7 managed operations.
On-demand virtual machines from 10 to 48+ vCPUs with 16 GB to 128+ GB RAM. Provision Windows or Linux VMs in minutes via Cloud Director. Scale vertically (hot-add vCPU/RAM) or horizontally (deploy additional VMs). VMware vSphere HA ensures automatic restart on host failure. DRS balances workloads across the compute cluster.
All-NVMe SSD storage powered by VMware vSAN — sub-100 microsecond latency, 1 million+ IOPS, 3,000–7,000 MB/s throughput. 500 GB to 1.5 TB included with ECS plans, expandable on demand. Ideal for database workloads (SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL), ERP systems, and I/O-intensive applications where storage performance directly impacts user experience.
VMware NSX software-defined networking — create isolated virtual networks, configure distributed firewalls, deploy load balancers, set up NAT/VPN, and implement microsegmentation for zero-trust workload isolation. All networking is configurable through Cloud Director without raising support tickets. Unlimited bandwidth included on all plans.
NxtGen's Infinite Datacenter extends your on-premises VMware into the cloud — same Cloud Director management plane, vMotion live migration between on-prem and NxtGen, consistent NSX networking policies across environments. No re-architecture required. Burst into NxtGen during peak demand, keep sensitive workloads local, and manage everything from a single portal.
VMware Cloud Director provides full self-service — provision VMs from templates, manage snapshots, configure networks, monitor resource usage, access VM consoles, and trigger operations via REST API. Integrate with Terraform, Ansible, and Infrastructure-as-Code pipelines. PrecisionTech provides Cloud Director training and ongoing support for your team.
Run Kubernetes on NxtGen IaaS — VMware Tanzu, upstream K8s (kubeadm, RKE2, K3s), or custom distributions. NVMe persistent volumes for stateful workloads, NSX ingress controllers, and GPU node pools for AI/ML containers. PrecisionTech deploys, configures, and manages K8s clusters including monitoring (Prometheus/Grafana) and rolling updates.
Windows Server 2016/2019/2022 VMs on NxtGen IaaS with Microsoft SPLA licensing or BYOL. Active Directory, SQL Server, Exchange, SharePoint, IIS, and .NET workloads fully supported. NVMe storage ensures fast boot times and responsive SQL queries. RDP and browser-based console access via Cloud Director without VPN.
Ubuntu, RHEL, CentOS Stream, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, Debian, SUSE, and Oracle Linux VMs. Pre-built templates for rapid deployment. Ideal for web servers (Apache, Nginx), application servers (Node.js, Java, Python), databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB), and container hosts. Full root access with SSH and Cloud Director console.
PrecisionTech manages your NxtGen IaaS 24×7 — monitoring, OS patching, security hardening, backup administration, performance optimization, and monthly executive reports. Named account manager, SLA-backed response times, quarterly architecture reviews, and cost optimization recommendations. You focus on your applications — we own the infrastructure.
