A cloud service provides three beneficial aspects compared with traditional hosting services that businesses have been heavily reliant on.
The services you purchase are offered per your request. You purchase depending upon your usage, by the minute or by the hour. It is a great service as you can use as little or as much as you want. This elastic service allows freedom that is not found with traditional hosting packages. The third benefit is the ease with which anyone can use such services. All you need is internet access from your personal computer an away you go.
Cloud services have become more and more popular over the last few years due to the downturn in the world economy (due to the costs and resources associated with running internal networks), coupled with the increasing capacity and speed with which personal computers now run. They offer greater flexibility with the way in which you use hosting services, providing both public and private cloud services.
There are a number of types of cloud services available:
Infrastructure: Clouds (utility computing) provide virtual servers and storage, providing a central location online to access data.
Platforms: Clouds provide tools and applications for use through a secure server.
SaaS (Software as a Service): Provide application and data usage through the medium of web-based email control or database processing.
All types of cloud services have become important staples on the computing and IT maintenance landscape due to its simple usage and control and flexibility, particularly for new businesses and those looking to scale back on certain costs in an increasingly expensive business world.
Bespoke cloud services available remove the requirements and demands on businesses that were once heavily reliant on their single internal infrastructure. Maintaining connectivity and data through a cloud provides a level of freedom for businesses never seen before.
