Application Hosting
Run business-critical applications from USC-owned private infrastructure with secure access, direct support, and an environment built around your software.
Applications are most valuable when the people who rely on them can get to them easily, securely, and consistently. USC can host existing business applications, applications developed by our software team, and connected environments that combine hosted and on-premise systems.
Rather than placing your application into an anonymous public-cloud environment, USC can build the hosting platform around the application itself—using private infrastructure we operate and support directly.
Your Application.
Your Users.
Our Infrastructure.
Applications Without Boundaries.
Existing software, USC-developed applications, and connected business systems can be delivered from an environment designed around how your people actually work.Host What Works.
Modernize What Needs to Change.
Existing Applications. Move established business software into a professionally managed hosting environment without changing the core application your organization depends on. USC can provide the infrastructure, connectivity, security, monitoring, and support needed to make that application available to your users.
USC-Developed Applications. When USC develops software for your organization, our development and hosting teams can work together from the beginning—creating a direct path from application design to deployment, support, performance management, and future changes.
Connected Environments. Not every system has to live in the same place. USC can help connect hosted resources with systems that remain on-premise so organizations can modernize at a pace that fits the business.
Direct Accountability.
Your application can run on USC-owned infrastructure backed by security, monitoring, backup, support, and people who understand both the software and the platform beneath it.USC application hosting is built around private infrastructure we operate directly. That gives customers a different model from simply purchasing capacity from a large public-cloud provider and then managing the layers around it themselves.
Hosting environments can be designed with the compute, storage, security, monitoring, backup, and operational controls appropriate for the application. When an issue crosses the line between software and infrastructure, USC's application, infrastructure, and support teams can work together instead of sending the customer between unrelated vendors.
Recurring hosting options can also be structured to provide clearer, more predictable ongoing costs while preserving the flexibility to adjust the environment as application requirements change.
Private Infrastructure.
Direct Support.
Predictable Operations.
01You want users to reach an important application from multiple locations without maintaining the entire hosting stack internally.
02You have an existing application that still serves the business well, but the infrastructure around it needs to be modernized.
03You are developing a new application and want the software and hosting environment designed to work together.
04You need a private alternative to placing business-critical applications into a large public-cloud platform.
When Application Hosting Makes Sense
Common Application Hosting Questions
Practical answers for organizations evaluating where and how to run business-critical software.
What is application hosting?
Application hosting means running business software on managed infrastructure so users can access it without the organization maintaining the entire server and hosting environment itself.
Can USC host an application we already use?
Yes. Existing business applications can often be moved into a USC-managed environment without replacing the software itself. The hosting design can be built around the application's technical requirements, users, connectivity, security, and support needs.
Can hosted applications connect to systems that remain on-site?
Yes. Hosted applications can be integrated with on-premises systems when the business requires a hybrid environment. The architecture depends on the application, data flows, security requirements, and connectivity available at each location.
Who supports the application if the issue involves both software and infrastructure?
When USC is involved in both the application and the hosting environment, our software, infrastructure, and support teams can work together instead of sending the customer between separate providers.
Is private application hosting only for large enterprises?
No. Private application hosting can make sense for organizations of different sizes when dependable access, direct support, security, predictable operations, or specialized application requirements matter more than using a generic public-cloud platform.
Put the Application Where Your Business Can Use It.
Tell us what the application does, where it runs today, who needs access, and what needs to improve. We can help design the hosting environment around the actual requirement.
