Gladiator Hosted Network Solutions Trusted Services that Reduce Your Infrastructure and IT Burden

Has your financial institution (FI) found it challenging to keep pace with the latest technological advancements, regulatory compliance directives, and customer service demands? If so, you are not alone. Gladiator’s Hosted Network Solutions (HNS) is a hosted computing service model from ProfitStars® that enables FIs to seamlessly move IT infrastructures to the Cloud to leverage its many benefits. By moving your infrastructure to our private cloud and transferring management responsibilities to the trusted advisers and engineers at Gladiator, you can free internal IT resources to focus on more strategic initiatives.

Gladiator HNS is a convenient way of delivering hosted computing infrastructure – servers, storage, network, and operating systems – as an on-demand service. Rather than purchasing servers, software, data center space, or network equipment, FIs can instead choose to invest in those resources as a fully outsourced service, on demand. This solution enables any bank or credit union to get away from the in-house network hardware model and move to one that is less taxing on internal resources and less reliant on internal IT and regulatory expertise.

Proven Expertise and Experience from an Industry LeaderAs a division of Jack Henry & Associates, Inc.® (JHA), hosted network infrastructure is a natural progression for ProfitStars and the Gladiator team. JHA has been offering outsourced core banking and credit union applications for many years, in addition to hosted IP telephony and hosted network security services. JHA maintains several high-availability data centers that help ensure Gladiator HNS is delivered securely to FIs of all sizes.

With Gladiator HNS, your institution can expect expert guidance and management for all of the computing resources you need to migrate your infrastructure to our private cloud environment. Your network infrastructure hosting can include:

■ Hosted Servers – Designed to host some or all of your FI’s network server-based applications, including JHA apps, network, and most third-party servers.

■ OS Support – Windows and Linux OS, any manufacturer supported release.
