How Does Cloud Computing Help Businesses?
Cloud computing essentially means that enterprise data is stored on the cloud and accessed online instead of doing it in-house. With the advent of cloud computing, users are no longer required to invest in software development and application maintenance.
A business house can subscribe to a cloud computing service, paying only for the features that they use. As cloud offers unlimited storage capacity, organizations can store all the data on the cloud. The data is stored in multiple servers, minimizing the risk of hardware failure and maintenance challenges. The data can also be accessed from any device across the world as long as there’s internet connectivity.
This drastically reduces the cost of data storage, operations, and maintenance, especially for small business houses. For instance, additional costs pertaining to frequent software upgrades and training sessions for employees are done away with.
HCLTech Management Tools as a Service (MTaaS), Migration Assessment Index (MAI), and AGORA are some of the solutions that help optimize and manage cloud capabilities.
