Cloud Adoption
Most modern businesses will have heard of Cloud Computing, but what exactly does it mean and how can you use it to your advantage. Information technology refers to the use of technology and technological systems to process information. Generally this means using computers or other similar devices to store and manipulate information, or data, to achieve a particular purpose. That could be using a spreadsheet or accounts package to budget or keep track of business expenses or using a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system to maintain and manage customer details or sales information. Whatever specific business objective you want to achieve you will likely need somewhere to store data and some form of computing power to process that data.
Typically in the recent past those computers have been desktop or laptop computers that can be individually or, more commonly, connected together via a network. Connecting computers together enables the information and processing to be shared by more than one person, thus enhancing your organisational productivity. However, these computers still need to be located in a physical space, whether that is in your office or a dedicated location for hosting computers such as a data centre. Either way there are some drawbacks to managing and maintaining computers in this way.
To overcome some of these challenges many organisations are moving to cloud computing where businesses can access the computing resources they need from large global companies on a pay as you use basis. There are a range of these capabilities available such as Microsoft’s Azure, Google’s Cloud and Amazon’s Web Services. Using these cloud offerings companies no longer need to install all the expensive computer hardware previously required to enable sophisticated computing, but can instead, use what they need when they need it.
