Six Deliverables.
Zero Guesswork.
Every AI Assessment engagement produces a concrete set of outputs your team can act on. Not just a slide deck of recommendations you’ll never revisit.
// Private Cloud vs. The Alternatives
Not Public Cloud. Not On-Prem. Something Better.
Public cloud shares your infrastructure with thousands of other tenants. On-prem puts the burden of management entirely on your team. Advance2000 and CADimensions give you dedicated performance, full compliance support, and managed infrastructure — without the tradeoffs. CADimensions + Advance2000

// Common Questions
What Decision Makers Ask Before Moving to Private Cloud.
What is a private cloud and how is it different from a public cloud?
A private cloud is a dedicated, secure computing environment for a single organization. Unlike public cloud platforms like AWS or Azure — where your workloads share infrastructure with thousands of other tenants — a private cloud gives you exclusive resources, stronger data security, and consistent, predictable performance. That is why engineering teams prefer it for CAD, PDM, and simulation workloads where performance consistency is critical.
Will our CAD applications actually run faster on a private cloud?
Most customers see smoother model manipulation, faster rendering, and fewer slowdowns during heavy simulation sessions. Dedicated GPU and CPU resources keep performance consistent even under load — something shared public cloud tiers cannot guarantee. CAD workloads on shared infrastructure perform 40 to 60 percent slower than on dedicated private infrastructure.
Who manages the private cloud environment?
Advance2000 manages and supports the private cloud environment, handling provisioning, monitoring, patching, and security updates. CADimensions manages the relationship and onboarding. Your engineering team focuses on design. Nobody on your staff needs to babysit infrastructure.
How does pricing work?
Pricing is based on reserved compute, storage, and support levels. Most customers choose a monthly plan sized to active users. During onboarding, capacity is right-sized so you only pay for what you actually use. There are no surprise charges and no capital hardware investment required.
What about uptime and disaster recovery?
The environment is built for reliability with redundant hardware, 24/7 monitoring, and offsite backups protecting against downtime. A 99.9% uptime SLA is standard. Optional disaster recovery and failover packages provide even stronger business continuity for organizations that cannot afford extended outages.
Does this work with our existing internal IT team?
Yes. The private cloud is designed to complement your existing IT staff rather than replace them. Advance2000 handles the cloud infrastructure while your team focuses on internal priorities. Many customers use this as an overflow model — handing off the CAD environment management without disrupting the rest of their IT operations.
Which compliance frameworks does the private cloud support?
The Advance2000 platform supports CMMC, NIST SP 800-171, GDPR, and SOC 2. If your organization works with defense contractors, healthcare data, or EU-based clients, the architecture is already validated for those requirements. Advance2000 can provide documentation to support your audit process.
