Soon, almost any layer will be available "as a service", from infrastructure or services, to platforms, function or cognition layers. A consequence of this massive trend is that many traditional users of IT could rely on more outsourced and industrialized added value services, gaining pace and scalability capabilities.

The CISPE, a newly formed organization founded by more than 20 cloud infrastructure providers operating in Europe with a commitment to maintaining the highest levels of data protection, announces the launch of its data protection Code of Conduct requiring cloud IaaS provider members to provide specific assurances on the protection of data stored in European data centers.

The launch of the CISPE Code of Conduct was made at a round table conference held in Brussels with the attendance of industry key players, policy makers and hosted by MEP Eva Paunova, Member of the Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection.

Under the CISPE Code of Conduct, cloud infrastructure providers cannot data mine or profile customers’ personal data for marketing, advertising or similar activities, for their own purposes or for the resale to third parties.

The Code precedes the application of the new European Union (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). It aligns with the requirements set out in this new regulation aiming mainly at giving citizens back the control of their personal data, and simplifying the regulatory environment for international business by unifying the regulation within the EU.

The new Code of Conduct has been constructed in such a way that it will be aligned with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) when it comes into force in May 2018 and it builds on internationally recognised security standards that enhance data security processing for all cloud customers and for their users.

It makes it simpler for customers to assess whether Cloud Infrastructure Services are suitable for the processing of personal data that they wish to perform, and those that are suitable are identified by a clear Trust Mark.

This Trust Mark can be used by cloud infrastructure providers to show customers they are compliant, and compliant organisations will also be listed on the CISPE website.

Under the CISPE Code of conduct, cloud customers will receive the assurance that providers of cloud infrastructure services do not process their personal data, for their own benefit or for the resale to third parties, such as for the mining of personal data, profiling of data subjects, marketing or similar actions.

“It was a natural decision, we saw an opportunity in this Code of Conduct,” said Stefano Cecconi, Founder and CEO of Aruba Spa “for our customers this data protection standard is already in place as Italian legislation on this subject is quite similar to what has been stated in the Code of Conduct and offers the same guarantees. The great advantage starting from this decision, is that the same rules will be applied to all European countries and everyone will have the same obligations; so I welcome the CISPE Code of Conduct as this will avoid any doubts about what customers can expect from their cloud providers“.

Regarding Aruba Cloud, Stefano Cecconi adds “we give our customers the possibility to choose in which Country they want their data to be processed, but we keep the data strictly within the EU, protecting confidentiality through high data protection standards”.

The use of load balancers can bring several improvements to your cloud infrastructure :

• Management of bigger workloads : thanks to the use of load balancers you dispatch your workload onto many cloud servers. You are therefore not limited by the capacity of a single server anymore and can perform more demanding tasks.
• Simplified management of traffic peaks  : As the traffic is dispatched onto the servers connected to the load balancer, an increase in traffic can easily be absorbed by connecting extra servers to the load balancer. The operation is performed without any downtime or effect on your service.
• Clear improvement of the service continuity: If one of the servers connected to the load balancer stops working, the load balancer automatically excludes it and redirects the traffic onto the other servers without any downtime for your services.

Features of the Aruba balancers:

• Dedicated IP address
• Easy to configure and manage
• Supports HTTP, HTTPS and TCP protocols
• Supports LeastConn and Source algorithms
• Registration of detailed statistics of load balancer workload

The load balancing service is available in the cloud computing section of your control panel and work with the Cloud credits in your account.
For more information, please visit the dedicated section on our website the dedicated section on our website.

Thanks to this service, it is possible to monitor all your websites, Cloud Servers and dedicated servers whether they are hosted in the Aruba Cloud data centers or with other providers.
In cases of failures or errors detected in the monitored resource or service, Cloud Monitoring will automatically and immediately send you a notification via email or SMS.

You could for example monitor the status of your POP3 service on your servers in France from our datacenters in Italy, France of Czech Republic, controlling for timeouts every 15 minutes, registering a time-out after 10 seconds and the sending of an alert after 4 timeouts.

The Monitoring service is highly scalable and does not require any installation nor update for the services you wish to monitor.
