• Any IT veteran would tell you that changes in technology are accelerating quickly. The needs of today’s connected world cannot be met by the networks of the recent past. Network resources are swiftly transitioning to a worldwide cloud infrastructure, much like how electric services evolved over a century ago from self-operated, in-house power generation to a widely used utility.
It goes without saying that the bottom line is important to all businesses. Managers and executives are constantly looking for ways to minimise costs. The first benefit of moving to the cloud is that businesses avoid the capital costs associated with buying a variety of networking equipment. No additional switches, routers, or firewalls are required; everything is taken care of by the cloud provider.
It is easier to retrieve and back up data when it is kept in the cloud rather than on-premise, which requires a lot of work. Business continuity planning must include components for data and system security. Irrespective of a natural disaster, a power outage, or any other emergency, your information is backed up and maintained in a secure and protected location when saved in the cloud.
The issue of latency has always been one of the shortcomings of hardware-based networking. Each piece of hardware or cable used to connect two endpoints might cause a small but cumulative decrease in speed and performance. By switching everything to software, cloud networks solve this issue smartly.
