Everyone is talking about it – but is it just the latest buzz technology? Put quite simply, the term Cloud Computing describes flexible IT resources provided by an external provider over the internet on a pay-as-you-go basis. Resources are accessed by the web, which means that they can be accessed securely anytime, from anywhere, via the internet. Businesses no longer need to purchase and manage their IT resources in-house, instead remote resources are utilised. There’s no need to worry about how things are being maintained behind the scenes – you simply purchase the IT service you require as you would any other utility. What is new however is that Cloud Computing is now affordable and accessible to companies of any size, giving enterprise level technology to every business.
Many have heard of the term “Cloud Computing”, but far fewer understand what it is and ultimately, whether it will benefit their business. In an economic climate where every penny counts, businesses are increasingly looking for innovative ways to cut costs while maximising returns, one of these being through new technologies. This whitepaper is intended for anyone whose role it is to transform IT into a strategic asset and business enabler, whilst reducing costs and maximising value, whether that is the company owner, the MD or the IT Manager.
