Now you can stay cool and calm this summer. What do I mean by this? With cloud computing, you can take your vacation and still keep your business running. Plus, using cloud solutions like server virtualization will keep your office cool and comfortable while saving you money on air conditioning costs.
The cloud has completely changed the way we work for the better. Now you can be productive from home, on the road, and – yes, even when on vacation. With a hosted server in the cloud, if a client calls and needs a contract you were working on, you can access it and send it off just like you were in the office. You can do this knowing that everything you send or receive is secure. You can even collaborate and edit a document in real time with a coworker. This is so much faster than emailing files back and forth. Plus, all these tasks can be completed from your laptop or even your smartphone – right from your lounge chair by the pool. All you need is internet access. No sweat!
With the cloud you won’t “sweat” about data security. Client confidentiality is a priority for every business. The chance of a data breach has increased for businesses that use mobile devices and email outside the office. But with cloud services, like those offered from CPU, Inc., systems can be remotely monitored 24 x 7 to prevent intrusions or issues that can cause downtime.
Does your business scale up or down during the summer months? One of the greatest benefits of using cloud computing is its scalability, allowing you to scale up or down as needed. If your business slows down for the summer, you can cut back on the number of subscriptions for your cloud-based applications and sign up again in the fall.
The cloud can even save you money and keep your office cool on a hot day. With a virtualized IT infrastructure in the Cloud, you can save money on server hardware and cooling costs. Server consolidation reduces your hardware count and the costs associated with it while increasing the performance of servers. Now you can use your server room for something else. A server room produces lots of heat and requires that AC be kept running constantly to keep it cool. Your electric bills will decrease, and your office will be cool and comfortable. Literally no sweat!
