Enabling your business to take advantage of the cloud

Cloud options

You and your business may already be using the cloud in some form. The cloud simply means any computing service that is delivered to the end-user via an internet connection. There are three ways your business can deploy cloud services...

Communication & collaboration

File storage & sharing

Data backup & recovery

Public Cloud

This is the most common way the cloud is deployed. Under this option your business leases everything or pays a subscription to use services. Your cloud service provider owns and operates the infrastructure, and your business will be sharing the infrastructure with other businesses. Public cloud deployments are frequently used for...

Cloud based email

Online office applications

Data storage & sharing

Public cloud deployments are cost-effective because they involve no capital outlay and all maintenance costs fall on the cloud service provider.

Financial businesses

Legal businesses

Any business needing full control of data

Private cloud deployments have the advantage of being more flexible that public cloud deployments because you are not sharing the infrastructure and services with other businesses. Costs will be higher than public cloud but savings still exist over maintaining an entirely in-house IT infrastructure.

Hybrid Cloud

Hybrid cloud deployment is a blend of private, public and in-house infrastructure. Hybrid solutions are employed for a range of valid reasons. Your business may need to support some sensitive business processes and data in an on premise or private cloud deployment. However, office applications and email could be deployed in a public cloud solution.  A typical example of a Hybrid solution could be an in house file server with an Office 365 email solution.

Hybrid cloud deployments still offer...

Hybrid cloud deployments also offer the following benefits...

Control of sensitive business processes and data
