Deciding what the Cloud means for you

There is lots of talk of “Cloud Computing”, “Software as a Service” or “Platform as a Service” but what is the real difference between the Cloud and a Data Centre?

What do you have to do to ensure Security, how do you develop business services to take advantage of it and should you? How do you support it? What motivates suppliers of Cloud infrastructure and what commercial models will you be faced with?

How do you migrate from the Earth to the Cloud - and should you?

Today there are more questions than answers when the Cloud is on the agenda

Smart421 sees the interaction with the Cloud in several layers – each impacting your business in a fundamentally different way the deeper into the Cloud you go – challenging Organisation, Managed Service and Security models – but bringing opportunities taking you a step closer to the world of seamless interconnectivity.

Whatever you think of the Cloud now, you need to factor it in to your architecture and investment decisions today. Smart421 consultants can help you make those decisions.
