With Skytap Cloud, you can create complex, multiple-machine data centers that can mirror your network, a customer’s own infrastructure, or other real-world examples. Easily import and run your existing applications unchanged in Skytap Cloud or choose from the extensive library of pre-built operation systems and application templates. You can also easily create a Hybrid Cloud by establishing a secure IPsec VPN connection back to your own network, enabling your users to access internal resources.
