Virtual Servers - How the Cloud Can Save you Money
Austin, Texas
Multiple TCO analysis have shown that the cost of managing and maintaining hardware ends up being more costly than moving to a cloud model.
| Infrastructure as a Service eliminates the need to spend capital on upgrading physical hardware and moves into an operating expense model. All hardware is virtualized and delivered as a service on a per month subscription rate. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud physical infrastructure but has control over operating systems, storage, and applications. Your customer accesses their application via a secure Internet connection. |
Benefits
Scalability: Organizations can easily add or remove or adjust virtual servers as needed.
Technology Refresh: Moving servers to hosted allow you to eliminate upgrading hardware every 3 years.
High-End Hardware: Backed by NetApp storage, Cisco UCS network & compute, VMware Hypervisors, and a true 10Gb network backbone to link it all together, CloudServer employs the best-in-breed hosting platforms in a fully redundant configuration to ensure the highest level of service availability possible.
Cost-Effective: Users can switch to thin client/zero client which helps provide organizations with an ROI.
