Cloud Computing Solutions for Business.

Cloud computing has changed the way we all work - and for the better. It wasn't that long ago that every company owned all the devices it needed. It also owned all the software it needed. There wasn't a company in land that wasn't buying new and bigger data storage facilities every year.

This "infrastructure" as it soon became known had many inherent problems.

What are Cloud Computing Solutions for Business: How will it help my company?

It was always going out of date, never the size you needed and there was always an IT person required to look after it.

Then there was the security risk. It's fine having it on your own premises "for security" but that's actually the biggest risk of all.

So it soon became obvious that renting the technology and the storage space you needed was a far more efficient way of doing things. Virtual machines would always be better and cheaper than owning a piece of hardware. Surprisingly it's also cheaper. So the benefits go on and on.

Here are the key features and benefits of using cloud computing solutions for business:

1. Software as a service SAAS. In essence, you simply rent the technology you need and it sits on the cloud rather than on your hardware at the office.
   The big advantage is the lower cost and you can access it from anywhere at any time.
2. Infrastructure as a service. No longer do companies need to try and future proof. That was always an impossible task at the best of times.
3. Cloud computing services ensure your IT solutions are always up to date. So no more problems with incompatible software or out of date technology.
4. Cloud-based systems will also make sure they are always fully functional. This massively reduces your overhead.
5. Most importantly, cloud applications will ensure they are always totally secure.

Cloud Computing Solutions will save time and money.

The application of cloud computing solutions has now exploded into our way of life in our commercial world. Many applications now boast cloud abilities. So an effective cloud computing strategy has become a must for any organisation looking to secure a competitive advantage.

We believe that having a choice is key here. So we offer all the leading providers of Cloud Computing Software and Cloud Platforms. By being independent of any one brand means we can offer you impartial advice and better cost performance comparisons.

• Amazon Web Services.
• Microsoft Azure.
• Rackspace.
• Plus access to a wide range of new up and coming providers.

So now we get involved in the world of IT and the complicated language used. Which is a shame because Cloud-Based solutions are clearly the way forward for all businesses.

The cloud environment allows you to provide for your IT hardware and software on-demand. The time savings are huge and you are guaranteed to get the best in class.

So this means you can easily scale up or scale down your storage capacity, your processing power, and your IT functionality in a matter of minutes.

The cloud keeps everyone connected.

Of course, many employees work from home these days. Many are on the road or away from base visiting suppliers or clients. So for these people, a cloud-based system offers huge benefits.

All staff now have instant access to the files they need. They are freed from the limitations of office-based software and hardware. Mobile apps on the phone are a game-changer. Your staff are always on the ball, always in touch and always in control.

So this means better performance and better customer service too.

What's Cloud Computing in very simple terms?

Okay, let's have a look at some of the buzz phrases surrounding Cloud-Based Services.  So essentially there are five possible cloud solutions you can use to improve your business. You can use some or all of them because they will integrate very easily:

1. Web-based services. So a good example of this might be that you store your files on a remote server rather than on a device in your office.
   Immediately you are getting better security, lower cost, no hardware to replace and no risk of loss when the kit packs up at 2.00 in the morning and fries the drive.
2. SaaS. This is Software as a Service. This allows multiple users, or "tenants' access to an application. Something like Office 365 would be a prime example.
   So now all your emails, powerpoint presentations and word documents are provided as a service rather than from your own device.
3. PaaS. Platform as a service is all about the operating systems you need to run your cloud-based applications.
4. IaaS. This is Infrastructure as a Service. This gives you access to the network functions. The best two known examples of this are probably Windows Azure and Amazon Webservices.
5. And finally, Hybrid Cloud Solutions. This can still be considered a cloud computing environment. However, the difference is that it uses a mixture of technology on your premises, private cloud technology, third-party and public cloud services with integration between the platforms used.
