Confused about cloud computing services? We can help.

Cloud Computing Services

Remember back when there was a room filled with racks of servers? Or how about when software programs came on a disk? Cloud computing takes all the computing services that at one time were only available through physical delivery systems and delivers them through the Internet. With cloud computing services, you can have storage, servers, networks, databases, software, analytics, and more all delivered through the Internet.
There are different kinds of cloud computing services. A cloud that is shared with other companies is a public cloud. A cloud that only your company utilizes is a private cloud. A hybrid cloud is an environment that uses a mix of private and public clouds as well as on-premises solutions.
The biggest advantage to any type of cloud computing service is that it eliminates the capital expense of buying hardware and software and employing the experts to manage the infrastructure. That said, figuring out which type of cloud computing service is right for your business can be tricky.

Which cloud computing solution is right for my business?

Optimum Networking can analyze your business requirements to determine which cloud computing service is right for your needs. Below are brief explanations of the types of cloud computing services we can provide and the advantages of each.

Public Cloud

We can help you find a public cloud computing service that has the right framework for your business. A public enables every employee to use the same applications no matter where they are as long as they have Internet access. It is a third-party computing service offered over the public Internet to many businesses. The two biggest advantages of using a public cloud are that it is scalable and cost effective. It can scale easily with your business, so you are only charged for the bandwidth you use. It also frees your company from having to purchase and maintain on-premises hardware and application infrastructure.

Private Cloud

A private cloud has proprietary architecture and is dedicated to your business. This is ideal for businesses that have security concerns or mission-critical operations. It is scalable like the public cloud doesn’t require hardware on site.

Hybrid Cloud

The hybrid cloud integrates on-premises, private and public cloud services. It allows workloads to move seamlessly between the three platforms as needs and costs change. This type of environment offers the greatest flexibility and more robust data deployment options.

Optimum can provide reliable, scalable, affordable managed computing resources for your business, no matter which type of cloud computing service is right for you.
