What is Cloud Computing?

If computing costs are getting in the way of running your company, then you should consider cloud computing.  The term is thrown around quite a bit but basically cloud computing is when you receive any hosted service over the internet instead of the alternative, purchasing hosting equipment.  Cloud computing is a virtual networking office where you only pay for what you use.  Many companies lose thousands of dollars each year in services that they either do not use at all or only use rarely.  When you opt for cloud computing, you will be charged for the amount of time that you use the service instead of a hefty monthly rate when you barely use the service at all.

Cloud computing can then be divided into three main categories from which you can choose your services.  These categories include infrastructure as a service of IaaS, Software as a service or SaaS and Platform as a Service of PaaS.  Every service that your business uses is purchased on demand, either per minute or per hour rather than on a monthly basis.  Cloud computing is completely flexibe which allows you to get your work done without running into any IT issues.  Because your network is virtually managed, you will never have to waste money on an IT team or lose work time because of a failed network system.  There is a 99.9% uptime with all of these services.

Using cloud computing is not only cost efficient but it is also a better way to spend your resources and get your work done.  You can achieve more profit with less investment when you use cloud computing.  Contact us today for more information about cloud computing.
