Lately it seems that everyone has come a sudden fever for cloud computing , however, really is something that already existed but were not tabulated until some concepts seem to have become a novelty.Still, not until now, in a time of economic recession, when we are considering this model of IT management . What is cloud computing and what are its key factors are things that we have already commented on the odd occasion however, there is one detail that is often speak, the cost savings , which would stand me in greater detail.
Saas ( Software as a Service ) has always said that it is a management model where the user pays for the use of an application that is accessed typically through your web browser.Examples of SaaS could be Google Docs or Microsoft Office 365 (one free and one paying) that offer an office suite without having an installed application that has to maintain, update or patch. Given the ease of use and abstraction to install or maintain the software in the cloud hosting can be a powerful vehicle for the modernization of the productive sectors that normally could not adopt technology for technology investment in servers (physical or the cloud), application installation and maintenance of these are tasks that would be beyond your budget.
Centralization (or data center consolidation) is a growing trend that is more common in business (although sometimes play tricks like the beam of Amazon ). United States , without going any further, today announced it will close a significant number of data centers , 40%, because it will go for the centralization of applications and operating SaaS mode, saving a large sum of money on staff, energy, climate, infrastructure, etc.. It might seem that we are “comparing apples and oranges”, however, if the U.S. cut costs, a small business, thanks to the cloud, you have access to services that previously could not access and also at an affordable cost, by Therefore, it democratizes the use of technology .
The cloud computing, regardless of being a new paradigm of management or a path toGreenIT , is a vehicle that can streamline business processes . Consider, for example, Google Apps , the business suite Google office suite that offers email, calendar and pages to be done, for example, an intranet. An interesting package that could be supplemented by other cloud services, for example, Dropbox to keep your files and documents.
It may seem silly but a company that holds all the files on a PC under a desk and does not back up, really, could be serious trouble if that server broke down and, therefore, would have to think about making copies of security or hire someone to go to them. With a cloud service, the company is abstracted from the maintenance of your file server and also gains in mobility because you can access your documents from anywhere. To this I mean improving the competitiveness of enterprises, because they are opening the door to improvements in their own organization.
Organizing it better? not have to rely on fixed infrastructures allow mobility and thus open the door to reconciling family and teleworking and telepresence (which we can add communication tools like Skype ). A small business with teleworkers can increase your turnover, increase its staff and, however, no increase in office space.
This is the path that I believe will make the use of cloud companies, such as vehicle towards a much more efficient use of resources and also to the adoption of new organizational models.
