Cloud Computing

Everyone wants the best technology at the lowest possible cost. The "Cloud" affords you that opportunity. You can avoid the costs associated with servers and software and even many of the typical desktop, laptop and workstation expenses.

Understanding what the "Cloud" means is fundamental to understanding how it can help your organization from a profit and productivity perspective.

• Hosted Services - The lowest cost server alternative usually for organizations not larger than 10 users. Hosts only one aspect of your existing server such as e-mail using Hosted Exchange, instant messaging using Hosted Communicator or file sharing using Hosted SharePoint.
• IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) - Creates your entire network infrastructure in the "Cloud" using a variety of methods.
• Virtualization - Converting your servers to non-hardware dependent software based solutions means higher availability, better stability and better scalability whether local or in the "Cloud".
