Managed Cloud Services Frequently Asked Questions
What are Cloud Computing Services?
In plain English, cloud services are simply the delivery of computing services over the internet. This includes databases, servers, networks, storage, and more.
You can deliver these services from a company’s own data center or it can be delivered from a third party provider over the internet. For small to medium-sized businesses, you would typically use the later option.
Cloud computing is constantly evolving and being driven by business needs. Organisations are implementing cloud services to achieve cost efficiencies, improve access to information, better align resources with business strategies and increase flexibility. It is also used for storing their data off site for security reasons.
Why is it called “Cloud” Computing?
Cloud computing services generally refers to the use of Internet-based products and services that are available over the cloud. The word ‘cloud’ in this context means that you can access these services on demand, typically paying for only what you need when you need it with often no upfront fee or long-term commitment. These services are accessible anywhere using a browser or mobile app so you can get to your data whether you are at home, in the office, on the road or in the air.
What is your Cloud Services Platform of Choice?
We support most cloud service providers. However, our provider of choice is Microsoft Azure.
Azure is Microsoft’s cloud computing service which offers a broad stack of enterprise-ready cloud technologies, developer tools and a marketplace for partnering solutions from Microsoft as well as from our preferred vendors.
Microsoft Azure has been recognised as the most trusted cloud provider by business leaders and is currently available in 140 countries. They offer regions with the most comprehensive cloud services for any business, both large and small.
Microsoft Azure strives to offer an economy of scale that not only lets you pay less but also gives you more options than ever before so you can run your business on Microsoft’s global, trusted cloud infrastructure.
What are the Benefits of Managed Cloud Services?
Managed Cloud Services offer you all the benefits of Cloud Computing Services (including a significant advantage over traditional on-premise servers), without any of the headaches as a specialised IT Services company will look after the setup and ongoing management for you.
Your data is available to you anywhere with an internet connection, without having to invest in expensive hardware and software. The cloud has many potential benefits including:
- Improved security
- Reduced operating costs
- Flexibility in cost management
- Scalability – Pay only for the capacity your company needs at that time, scaling up or down as needed
- Enhanced user experience for online services
- Allows different systems to work together
- Ability to share data with a large number of users, from anywhere in the world without need for travel or bulky hardware
- Make your infrastructure not just available, but accessible from any device, anywhere, anytime
Are there any Negatives to using Cloud Services?
As with all technology, there can be some disadvantages of using cloud services, especially if it has not been implemented correctly into your business’s IT structure. This can include:
- Data Leakage: user’s leaving the company and taking their data with them.
- Lack of Security: some cloud servers do not have the same level of security as an on-site server, especially for more sensitive and confidential documents and emails.
- Unpredictability or Unavailability: if your business has a large spike in traffic that makes it difficult for users to access the cloud, the service may become unresponsive and potentially unusable.
- Lack of Integration: if you currently use a particular software application for your business and find it difficult to integrate with other applications and content in the cloud, this can cause major problems.
That’s why it is important to use a superior Cloud Service Provider, and have this implemented by a locally trusted Managed Service Provider (MSP). Discover has over 20 years of implementing and maintaining secure cloud computing for businesses across Melbourne.
