Adopting the cloud: Adding value to your business
Overview
Cloud computing refers to the delivery of computing services—servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, intelligence and many more—over the Internet to offer faster innovation, flexible resources and economies of scale. It is changing the current trend of hosting, operating and maintaining your IT resources locally on your premises.
The cloud services that the businesses use help lower your operating costs, run your infrastructure more efficiently and scale as your business needs a transformation. It enables your company to react faster to the needs of your business while driving greater operational efficiencies.
Cloud computing has a great impact on business thinking. It facilitates a change in the way companies operate, by offering shared and virtualized infrastructure that is easily scalable. It is also changing how we manage these resources. The challenge is no longer about how many physical servers a company has, but more about being able to manage these virtual resources.
Top benefits of cloud computing
Cloud computing is a big shift from the traditional way businesses think about IT resources. Here are seven common reasons organizations are turning to cloud computing services
1. Higher productivity:
Cloud computing removes the need for many of the tasks such as “racking and stacking”—hardware set up, software patching, unplanned downtime and other time-consuming IT chores that affect the whole organization. So teams can spend all their time on achieving more important business goals.
2. Cost:
Adopting cloud eliminates the upfront expense of purchasing hardware and software and setting up on-site servers. Cloud computing removes the need to
3. Wider network accessibility:
With the use of cloud computing, services are accessible from a wide variety of devices (such as PCs, smartphones and tablets) and from any location with network access to the cloud.
4. Better Security:
Many cloud providers offer a broad set of policies, technologies and controls that strengthen the security posture of your business, helping protect your data, application and infrastructure from potential threats.
5. Rapid elasticity:
Computing capabilities in the cloud are essentially unlimited and can be quickly scaled up or down in response to an organization’s changing needs. The purpose of elasticity is to match the resources allocated with the actual amount of resources needed at any given point in time.
6. Flexibility:
Most cloud computing services provided are self-service and on-demand, so even vast amounts of computing resources can be provisioned in minutes, typically with just a few mouse clicks, giving businesses a lot of flexibility and taking the pressure off capacity planning.
7. Balanced ROI:
Cloud delivers a faster return on IT investments, thanks to accelerated implementation and elimination of upfront licensing and infrastructure costs
8. Scalability:
Cloud computing allows your business to easily upscale or downscale your IT requirements as and when required. You can increase or decrease your existing resources to accommodate business needs or changes. This will allow you to support your business growth without expensive changes to your existing IT systems.
Consequently, these technologies provide adaptability on mobile devices hence increasing their use. Innovations based on cloud computing such as cloud automation and the Industry cloud are also being developed to integrate cloud computing into more specific industrial activities which will make various operations even more streamlined. The final verdict for cloud computing is that it’s a transformational technology that is helping organizations to deliver their products and services in a better way than before.
