Everyone is talking about "the cloud". But what does it mean? Business applications are moving to the cloud. The move from traditional software models to the Internet has gained a lot of momentum in the last 10 years. With this in mind, the next decade of cloud computing promises new ways of acquiring and using software.
Life Before Cloud Computing
Acquiring traditional business applications has always been very complicated and expensive. The amount and variety of hardware and software required to implement them is enormous. On top of the infrastructure cost you need a whole team of experts to install, configure, test, run, and maintain this framework.
When you apply this effort to dozens or hundreds of applications, it’s easy to see why the biggest companies with the best IT departments are not managing to implement the applications with the quality they need, and small and medium-sized companies don’t even have the capacity to acquire these solutions.
Cloud computing: A solution for every size
With cloud computing, you eliminate the headaches because you are not managing hardware and software, these components are now the responsibility of a specialized vendor dedicated to delivering this service. A slice of that vendor’s infrastructure is allocated to you and all the management is done by them. So the whole cost is automatically reduced and scalable as you need it.
