Colocation Hosting, Dedicated Servers, Hosting or Is It Really Cloud Computing?

Some people are wondering how the new world of cloud server and cloud computing will affect them.

However think about it, how is your journey to work this morning? Did you enjoy the traffic jam stuck behind a lorry with no view of why the traffic was stationary? Is there is another tube strike with more to come, is this the winter of our discontent?

Now there are benefits too an office-based work environment but who says that office has to be in one place? There is, of course, major benefits to being able to flexibly work.. some people are designed to work from home... when I stopped working from an office and was given the option to work from home remotely as the technology evolved, my friends and relatives mentioned how jealous they were a hand how lucky I was " not having to commute everyday". Up to a point they were right, but think about the bigger picture, I didn't stay in bed any longer and in fact I was in front of my work station an hour earlier everyday simply because I didn't have to commute.

On top of this often I was still working much longer after my normal finishing time simply because I didn't have the feeling of being the last man standing when everybody else had left for the day. When you are the only one in the "office" there is no one to distract you or to pester to come to the pub as soon as the bell chimes five o'clock. It took me a while to get used to it but once I did, I really did like the feeling of flexibility and being my own boss. But the main reason companies should go down this route the massive savings associated with the need to have much less property (and all the associated cleaning contracts and electricity bills etc.) as well as the huge increase in the amount in productivity they get from members of staff who have not spent an hour and a half with their face in somebody else's armpit stuck on the tube.

The average person on the street can now comprehend what's a virtual private network, understands the concept of home working and is used to seeing these suit wearing businessmen in every Starbucks across the country.

A significant majority of staff have reported working much longer hours from home then they ever would've done if they were still office-based,but actually they are happier to do so. Many large presentations can be done by webinar and it's not like Skype isn't free!

In the old days it really was only important people at the organization who had a computer and perhaps a few secretaries... now everybody has a networked PC on their desk and some people have a laptop as well so they can take work home or present to customers in the field.

As more and more of your staff became technically enabled the amount of bandwidth and server space required climbed in proportion to this. What used to happen alongside this process was that the IT department would secure additional hardware, bandwidth and software. These days a company can add or subtract capacity as its network load dictates without the need for special halon gas protected rooms full of green flashing lights.

The implementation is really easy you don't need to purchase hardware or software licenses or extra office space as you can obtain an extremely flexible solution for your needs from a provider like ours. We have been typically able to offer clients reliable solutions and we are large enough to have a huge data centres with endless amounts of storage and computing capacity.

Once you have done this your in-house IT department is completely free to concentrate on business-critical issues that will help your company move forward in the direction it wants to. Cloud hosting or cloud computing may be new terminology but data centres offering colocation, dedicated hosting packages and virtual servers have been around for quite a few years it's just now in these reduced economic times at the product itself has obtained a higher profile.
