Setting all the technology benefits aside, one of the main reasons that a business makes the move to a public cloud solution is the cost savings. The cloud frees companies from the burden of maintaining internal data centers where budgets can quickly melt into hardware and software maintenance and upgrades. With a public cloud infrastructure, a company incurs costs only when it needs to engage services which is a considerable cost savings as opposed to buying and maintaining new hardware and software. And as perfect as that sounds, there are times when the cloud engagement for a task isn’t turned off and the business pays for more cloud time than it actually needs. This is just one example of paying more for the cloud than necessary. In this Solution Brief, we’ve outlined some ways that companies can gain greater control over cloud expenditures and make it the cost saver it was designed to be. |
