So in a nutshell, what is the cloud and what's in it for you?
Effectively, cloud services is the harnessing of the latest technology to provided servers that are pooled off-site instead of undergoing the expense of installing on-site servers and related equipment. There's a huge cost saving in software licencing as well as on hardware purchasing and maintenance and best of all, most cloud servers are scalable (they can easily be upgraded and made bigger or faster). Sure, this is over-simplifying things, but you get the picture. Instead of having horribly expensive equipment in your office, it's stored in a secure data centre and you share the use of it with other companies to keep costs down. Cloud servers can be used for hosting e-mail (hosted exchange), file and application sharing and much more. With a cloud server, your workforce definitely benefits from the mobility of being able to log on and work from anywhere in the world. As a redundancy technology, it's great because it means that you can easily migrate to bigger and faster servers and that you can of course enjoy exceptional levels of backup of your critical data within the data center.
