What is Cloud Computing?
Cloud Computing offers a convenient and accessible way of managing your company’s data. The term “Cloud Computing services” refers to storing your data outside your physical location, accessible over the internet from anywhere. With cloud services, your applications, servers, databases, and software are stored offsite and available in “cyberspace,” giving you full access from any location or device with an internet connection. Cloud desktops are an affordable, secure way to keep teams nimble, budgets manageable, and security tight for millions of businesses across the country. Opting for cloud computing is a wise alternative to housing all your company’s data on a big server physically located in your space, requiring maintenance, hardware upkeep, and increased utility costs to power and cool. Cloud computing services are just as secure, fast, and customizable as a dedicated physical server. The only difference is that your data is stored in a virtual space that your cloud host manages, instead of a big piece of equipment that exists solely at your location. Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure (our cloud partner), and Amazon Web Services are all examples of cloud computing hosts. CloudSmart IT partners with Microsoft Azure for cloud computing. As your managed IT services partner, we can help your business move all of your data to the cloud, manage your network, and access your Azure Virtual Desktop from anywhere.
What benefits does Cloud Computing offer for reducing IT costs in my business?
Opting for Cloud support services is a common choice for companies of all sizes, driven by various factors. Cloud solutions have evolved into an essential tool over the last decade, aiding businesses in staying agile, reducing costs, and remaining competitive in their industries. Shifting your services to the cloud eradicates the need to invest in hardware and software. Additionally, you can do away with racks of servers and the constant need for electricity to power and cool them. This shift also eliminates the requirement for in-house IT experts to manage the infrastructure.
How can Cloud Computing contribute to enhanced productivity?
The removal of your on-site or hosted data center alleviates your IT team from essential management tasks, including software patching, hardware setup, and systems monitoring. Cloud services eliminate the need for many of these tasks, enabling your team to focus more time on accomplishing critical business goals.
Wondering about the reliability benefits of Cloud Computing?
Cloud computing simplifies data backup, disaster recovery, and business continuity, making them more cost-effective. Data can be mirrored at multiple redundant sites on the cloud provider’s network. Most cloud computing services are provided on demand, allowing businesses to provision vast amounts of computing resources in minutes. This flexibility is achieved without the pressure of capacity planning, ensuring you receive the right amount of IT resources exactly when needed.
