Flexiant,
a leading European provider of cloud orchestration software for
on-demand, fully automated provisioning of cloud services, has published
a whitepaper ‘Seven Business Reasons Why Moving Private Clouds to a Service Provider is a ‘No Brainer.’
Alex
Bligh, CTO, Flexiant introduces the topic by addressing the superficial
appearance that private cloud carries a number of advantages over
public cloud in terms of security of data, location and jurisdiction
guarantees. He discusses how private cloud enables organisations to
avoid paying for a service provider’s profit margin and the cost of
having another party involved.
With
these advantages established, Bligh questions why private clouds should
not dominate? Why are hybrid clouds not a solution for all the problems
of private and public clouds?
This
whitepaper challenges these assumptions and investigates the economic
and organisational business drivers of adoption of different cloud
technologies. It also considers the future prevalence of different types
of cloud technology in IT purchasing budgets and the corresponding
impact upon service providers.
With
this whitepaper, service providers will be armed with an educational
view of the advantages and disadvantages of public, private and hybrid
cloud solutions. It helps to reinforce the business advantages of a
public cloud solution.
