Online services are now an essential part of business infrastructure from e-mail to Web-based applications. To enable an online service requires significant investment in hardware, storage and bandwidth. Consequently, it has been beyond the means of all but the largest organisations.

Now, this has changed and even the smallest business can take advantage of the benefits of cloud computing.

What is cloud computing?


Cloud computing enables an organisation to utilise the most up to date resources they need (processor power, memory, storage and bandwidth) to ensure their business can operate at maximum efficiency; without the need to make an expensive upfront investment.

By purchasing your computing resources, as you would for a utility service, you are charged on a pay-as-you-go basis. It also means that you do not need to have any expertise in supporting the technology infrastructure that you are using. Our products are supplied fully supported with expert guidance from our technical team

 

Our cloud service offers the following benefits:

 

Cost effective - provides enterprise computing power at SME pricing


Affordable - no upfront investment, just pay for what you use


High availability - our investment in multiple virtual servers across a number of data centres ensures minimal downtime


Resource optimisation - load-balances virtual machines across the pool of physical servers, in order to accommodate increased customer demand while ensuring the stability of physical hardware


Green computing - reduced power consumption and CO2 emissions


Scalability - enables additional capacity to be easily added and removed based on fluctuating needs.

 

Customers can increase computing resources without the time and expense required to provision new hardware and bandwidth
