Working with a partner who has expertise in cloud enablement and data center optimization can lift the weight off your IT teams — giving them more time to focus on strategic initiatives and, in return, achieve additional cost savings.
Having the right partner can help you determine compliance requirements, assess growth and scalability requirements, and make sure your workloads are on track and your storage solutions are up to date for optimal results. Outsourcing can also help you execute application and data migration with ease, ensure your solutions are secure, and source and integrate the proper platforms across your locations.
Finding your best-fit cloud solution
Many organizations are transforming data centers to enable business-critical applications and workloads to exist in the cloud. It’s important that the infrastructure and technology in the data center support moving these apps and workloads around without the loss of productivity.
With a cloud-enabled infrastructure, businesses have the ability to simultaneously augment on-premise data storage with cloud-based storage solutions, back up and recover critical files, access applications on or off premises, and effortlessly monitor systems whenever they need to.
But how do you know which platform to choose? How can you guarantee the best results for your business and get the most out of your cloud investment?
Each cloud platform has benefits and drawbacks. To match the right job to the right cloud, you need to consider your specific business requirements for security, growth, multisite locations, data access and compliance. Assessing your business components can help you choose between the private and public cloud — or a combination of both.
