Benefits of Cloud Services

There are a myriad of buzzwords and technical terms that are ever-changing in the landscape of technological trends. Supima Technologies delivers actionable and forward-thinking tools to help your organization achieve mission-critical objectives, specifically in the landscape of cloud services.

In this article, we will be identifying and discussing the core benefits of cloud services specifically as it relates to rapid deployment and scalability. To begin with, it would be important to understand these terms and how it aligns with cloud services from a holistic perspective.

Rapid deployment can best be described by understanding the cloud deployment models. This includes public, private, community, and hybrid deployment models. Each deployment model would be defined according to where the infrastructure for the environment is located according to three main cloud service models: Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS) as well as Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS).

In addition to the above, the delivery of services is significantly fast-tracked and has quality metrics and mechanisms in place. The pre-configured software is packaged with implemented services and offers economies of scale, quicker user adoption, and cost-efficient when onboarding or offboarding certain services from an application.

Cloud scalability refers to the ability to meet current demands according to IT resources. IT solutions are required to be agile in their delivery and should have the capacity to increase or decrease resources easily. Illustrative categories of this would be scaling up or down (also referred to as vertical scaling) or in or out (horizontal scaling). Additional examples would be when an application program needs to move to a larger operating system to align with the required performance specifications in terms of the number of users that need to be handled, otherwise referred to as “load-balancing”.

Transformational and competitive advantage should be at the forefront of the technology strategy for any organization. The architecture and technical integrity of the software would be enhanced by utilizing cloud services. To summarize, cloud services deliver distinctive benefits such as deploying solutions in hours rather than weeks, lower usage fees and greater flexibility in an organization’s strategic approach.
