The UK’s first Nutanix powered cloud
The tailored solution – only pay for what you use
Cloud First on an OPEX basis
Millennia offers a private/hybrid (multi-cloud) managed cloud solution powered by Nutanix on an OPEX basis. Limitless scalability & choice: your own private cloud and the ability to scale up & out or burst to public clouds.
Both businesses and the public sector are migrating from ‘big’ public cloud providers to multi-cloud providers. This ensures they still achieve Cloud First IT strategy but get contract flexibility with known costs. Public cloud costs are difficult to budget as they are only apparent after commitment.
The Millennia Cloud offers a multi-cloud choice, putting the control into the hands of the user by allowing easy selection and optimisation of clouds through one-click.
Flexible Pricing Models
Get a simplified and predictable monthly pricing model – with no surprise extras. Built to exact resource requirements with no fixed T-shirt sizes (on public cloud, if you are too big for a small you are forced into the cost of a medium). We give you granular growth with tailored solutions.
Built in resiliency
App resiliency rests with you on public clouds. Millennia differs as resiliency is at the platform level giving you immediate protection within the private cloud. Public cloud proprietary infrastructure also means your IT team must train in it and obtain numerous different certifications. Training on the Millennia Cloud isn’t necessary.
Powered by Nutanix
Millennia Cloud was the first UK cloud to be powered by Nutanix (used by the worlds most advanced data centres). Millennia is one of only a few Nutanix X-Powered Service Providers in Europe. Currently we are trusted to host the ticketing software for Premier Football Clubs, theatres and major tourist attractions enabling in excess of 25 million ticket sales per annum.
Get all the benefits of the Enterprise cloud on Nutanix without buying and running the hardware on premise or co-locating it yourself. Enjoy a personalised managed service and cloud in one contract. Get a solution not just a platform. The best of all worlds.
You deserve the best solution and we are in IT for you!

No fixed ‘T-shirt’ sized VMs
Many cloud providers offer VMs as t-shirt sizes; extra small, small, medium, large, and extra-large. This limits memory, number processors and hard disk size and expansion is in whole sizes, meaning you pay more before you need it all.
We don’t do that – Millennia builds VMs to exact resource requirements that are not fixed allowing for granular growth.

Millennia now offers the following services on G-Cloud 12:
Private/Hybrid (Multi-Cloud) Managed Cloud – providing a choice of cloud
Nutanix as a Service (NaaS) – for users on Nutanix who wish to outsource the support
John Thorpe, Millennia’s Technical Director commenting on the news, said “I’m so proud that our business has been named as a CCS supplier, honouring our staff and all their hard work. We look forward to helping UK Public Sector bodies manage their own cloud journey, many of whom have been challenged by the rapid move to home working and the need for services to be made available online in ever increasing numbers. We are open for business and would be delighted to speak to any Public Sector Managers looking for some expert help and support.”
Cyril VanAgt, Senior Director, Channel Sales – EMEA at Nutanix, said: “Millennia is a long-term Nutanix partner, and was the first cloud provider in the UK to implement Nutanix. Being named as a supplier on the Crown Commercial Service’s G-Cloud 12 framework is a key development for the team, and means that it can work with UK public sector organisations to deliver effective multi-cloud strategies that support their digital services – both now and in the future – underpinned by Nutanix technologies. Furthermore, this achievement reflects how Millennia and Nutanix’s skills and solutions complement each other to bring the advantages of the cloud to the public sector, while making it more agile and secure than ever.”
Satisfied customers
Millennia: high customer satisfaction for a fair price.
Typical customers of the Millennia Cloud are organisations who need resiliency for their applications from day one, without having to re-architect for a non resilient public cloud platform, and want their applications to meet a Cloud First policy, but who still want control.

All these benefits mean you have happier customers and your IT team can concentrate on innovation.
