The use of Cloud infrastructure (IaaS) worldwide continues to grow, and the services offering continue to innovate and mature. It is no more a hype and 60% of the businesses have already presence in the cloud. However organizations of all shapes and sizes still have questions when considering the IaaS deployments :
- What Cloud provider is right for what workloads? And what's the right approach - IaaS? SaaS? PaaS?
- How do I secure my infrastructure in the Cloud?
- How do I manage services in the Cloud?
- What's the real cost of using the Cloud?
We does not own Cloud infrastructure. We haven't invested in datacenter space or static infrastructure to then resell to our customers. Instead we focus on leveraging infrastructure from leading Cloud providers such as Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services, IBM, HP, CenturyLink and Rackspace to deliver low cost, high performance compute environments in the Cloud; working with a supporting ecosystem to deliver an end-to-end solution.
