Petronella Technology Group delivers enterprise-grade virtual desktops, cloud hosting, and hybrid cloud infrastructure that reduces IT costs, strengthens security, and gives your team the flexibility to work from anywhere. Serving Raleigh, Durham, and the Research Triangle Park for over 22 years with zero security breaches among clients following our security program.
Outdated Infrastructure Is Holding Your Business Back
Businesses across Raleigh, Durham, and the Research Triangle Park are facing a critical inflection point. Aging on-premises servers are reaching end of life. Hardware refresh cycles demand enormous capital expenditures every three to five years. Meanwhile, your competitors are already operating in the cloud, gaining advantages in speed, flexibility, and cost efficiency that widen with every passing quarter.
The consequences of inaction are severe. On-premises hardware failures cause unplanned downtime that can cost small and mid-sized businesses thousands of dollars per hour. Remote work capabilities remain limited or nonexistent when employees are tethered to physical desktops. Scaling up to meet seasonal demand or company growth requires weeks of procurement and configuration rather than minutes of provisioning. Data backup and disaster recovery plans that rely on local tape drives or external hard disks leave your organization vulnerable to ransomware attacks, natural disasters, and hardware failures that can destroy years of critical business data in an instant.
Perhaps most concerning is the security gap. Unpatched servers, misconfigured firewalls, and the absence of centralized endpoint management create attack surfaces that sophisticated threat actors exploit daily. For Triangle NC businesses handling sensitive client data, financial records, or protected health information, these vulnerabilities represent not just operational risk but regulatory liability that can result in devastating fines and reputational damage.
- Capital-intensive hardware refresh cycles every 3-5 years
- Unplanned downtime from aging server infrastructure
- Limited or no remote work capabilities for your team
- Slow scaling that cannot keep pace with business growth
- Backup and disaster recovery gaps exposing critical data
- Expanding attack surfaces from unpatched and misconfigured systems
- Compliance risks from inadequate data controls and documentation
- Rising energy and facility costs for on-premises data centers
A Complete Cloud Strategy Built Around Your Business
Petronella Technology Group takes a fundamentally different approach to cloud adoption. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all template, we begin every engagement with a comprehensive assessment of your current infrastructure, applications, workflows, compliance requirements, and business objectives. This discovery phase reveals the optimal cloud architecture for your specific situation, whether that means a full public cloud migration, a private cloud deployment, a hybrid model that preserves critical on-premises workloads, or a virtual desktop infrastructure that empowers your workforce to operate securely from any location.
Our cloud migration methodology has been refined over more than two decades of serving businesses across Raleigh, Durham, and the broader Research Triangle Park region. We follow a structured five-phase process that minimizes risk and eliminates the disruption that plagues poorly planned migrations. Phase one involves thorough discovery and dependency mapping to understand exactly how your applications and data interact. Phase two produces a detailed architecture plan with clearly defined milestones, rollback procedures, and success criteria. Phase three executes the migration in carefully staged increments, moving workloads during off-peak hours and validating each component before proceeding. Phase four conducts extensive testing and performance validation to ensure every application functions correctly in its new environment. Phase five focuses on post-migration optimization, right-sizing resources to eliminate waste and implementing monitoring to maintain peak performance.
What sets PTG apart is our commitment to ongoing management and support. Cloud migration is not a project with a defined endpoint. It is an ongoing operational discipline that requires continuous monitoring, security patching, cost optimization, and performance tuning. Our team of certified cloud engineers provides 24/7 support for your entire cloud environment, proactively identifying and resolving issues before they impact your operations. With over 2,500 companies served and zero security breaches among clients following our security program, Petronella Technology Group has the track record and expertise that Triangle NC businesses trust to manage their most critical technology infrastructure.
Whether you need to deploy virtual desktops for a distributed workforce, migrate legacy applications to Infrastructure as a Service, consolidate and manage dozens of SaaS subscriptions, or architect a hybrid cloud that meets stringent regulatory requirements, PTG delivers the expertise, methodology, and ongoing support necessary to transform your IT infrastructure from a cost center into a genuine competitive advantage.
Cloud Solutions Engineered for Performance, Security, and Scalability
Virtual Desktop Infrastructure
Enable your entire workforce to access their full desktop environment, applications, and files from any device, anywhere in the world. PTG virtual desktops deliver consistent performance whether your team is working from your Raleigh headquarters, a home office in Durham, or a client site across the country. Each virtual desktop includes enterprise-grade security with multi-factor authentication, session encryption, and endpoint compliance verification. Unlike traditional remote desktop solutions that suffer from latency and poor user experience, our VDI platform is optimized for responsiveness, supporting bandwidth-intensive applications including CAD software, video conferencing, and real-time collaboration tools. Central management simplifies IT administration, allowing your team to provision new desktops in minutes, apply updates across all users simultaneously, and maintain complete control over data access and security policies.
Cloud Hosting and IaaS
Replace the burden of owning, maintaining, and refreshing physical servers with Infrastructure as a Service that scales on demand. PTG cloud hosting provides the compute power, storage capacity, and network bandwidth your applications require without the capital expense of hardware procurement. Our IaaS solutions are architected for high availability with redundant components, automated failover, and geographically distributed backups that ensure your critical systems remain operational even during component failures. We support Windows and Linux environments, SQL and NoSQL databases, web applications, ERP systems, and custom line-of-business software. Resource scaling can be configured to respond automatically to demand, ensuring you only pay for the capacity you actually use while maintaining the performance your users expect during peak periods.
Hybrid Cloud Architecture
Not every workload belongs in the public cloud. PTG designs hybrid cloud environments that place each application and data set in the optimal location based on security requirements, performance demands, compliance mandates, and cost considerations. Our hybrid architectures smoothly connect your on-premises infrastructure with public and private cloud resources through encrypted, high-performance network links. This approach gives Raleigh-Durham businesses the flexibility to keep sensitive data on local systems while using cloud scalability for less regulated workloads. Unified management tools provide a single pane of glass across your entire hybrid environment, simplifying operations and ensuring consistent security policies regardless of where your data resides. As your requirements evolve, workloads can be moved between on-premises and cloud environments without application refactoring or user disruption.
SaaS Management and Optimization
The average mid-sized business uses over 100 SaaS applications, yet most organizations lack visibility into what they are paying for, who has access, and whether their data is properly secured. PTG SaaS management brings order to this chaos by discovering all SaaS applications across your organization, identifying redundant or unused licenses, consolidating vendors where possible, and implementing security controls that protect your data across every platform. We manage Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, CRM platforms, accounting software, project management tools, and dozens of industry-specific applications used by Triangle NC businesses. Our management includes automated user provisioning and deprovisioning, single sign-on configuration, data loss prevention policies, and regular access reviews that reduce both cost and risk across your entire SaaS portfolio.
Cloud Migration Services
Migrating to the cloud is the most critical technology decision your business will make. A poorly executed migration can result in data loss, extended downtime, application failures, and security gaps that take months to remediate. PTG cloud migration services eliminate these risks through meticulous planning, proven methodology, and deep technical expertise developed over 22 years of serving businesses across the Research Triangle Park region. We handle the complete migration lifecycle from initial assessment and dependency mapping through staged data transfer, application configuration, testing, and go-live validation. Our migration specialists have successfully moved workloads from every major platform including physical servers, VMware environments, Hyper-V clusters, and competing cloud providers. Post-migration, we optimize your new environment for performance and cost efficiency, ensuring you realize the full value of your cloud investment from day one.
Cloud Security and Compliance
Security is not an add-on to PTG cloud solutions. It is woven into every layer of our architecture, from network segmentation and encryption at rest and in transit to identity and access management, intrusion detection, and continuous vulnerability scanning. Our cloud environments are designed to meet the requirements of HIPAA, SOC 2, PCI DSS, NIST, CMMC, and other regulatory frameworks that Triangle NC businesses must adhere to. We maintain detailed audit trails, implement least-privilege access controls, conduct regular penetration testing, and provide the documentation your compliance officers and auditors require. Our strong security track record for clients on our managed program across more than 2,500 managed environments demonstrates the effectiveness of our security-first approach to cloud infrastructure design and management.
