You're Ready to Move to the Cloud. Now What?
By The CloudSwitch Team
In our many discussions with enterprises of all sizes and industries, we’ve seen that the majority are starting to include the cloud in their overall IT computing strategies. The benefits of fast provisioning and pay-on-demand are extremely compelling. At the same time, it can be daunting to figure out that first step into the cloud.
We are working closely with companies as they evaluate the cloud, making it easy and secure for them to get started. According to one of our customers, with CloudSwitch they could deploy and measure the real results of running a “lab on demand” in the cloud for internal users in the same time it normally takes just to write a position paper on the cloud for their board.
To help organizations move beyond “Now what?” we have developed a “Starter Kit” that provides best practices and simple steps for a successful move to the cloud. We’ve created the content based on our experience of working with customers during the past year, covering their most frequently asked questions, including:
- Which application(s) should I move to the cloud first?
- How hard is it to move existing applications to the cloud vs creating new ones?
- What are the advantages and disadvantages of private, public and hybrid clouds?
At CloudSwitch, we’re not just simplifying the way enterprises run applications in the cloud – we’re also simplifying their experiences taking that first step into the cloud.
