Business Cloud Management & Cloud Migration Services
Organizations migrate applications or services to the cloud for a variety of reasons. Whether it’s the added convenience, financial perks, or scalability, cloud database solutions offer an array of benefits for organizations to improve business processes and grow.
What is Cloud Migration?
Cloud migration is the process of uploading business applications or services from its current server to a cloud provider. This is often accomplished by migrating applications from an on-site server, but can also involve moving content from one cloud provider to another to address security concerns or service challenges.
Benefits of Cloud Computing
Convenience and Reliability
With Microsoft cloud services, your information is available anytime, anywhere. Because data is not hosted on-site, you can access key information even if a power outage or technical error brings down on-site applications.
Financial Viability
Cloud database solutions are less expensive to maintain than on premise server applications. For example, most on-site applications require software or server updates. While there is a monthly fee associated with cloud computing solutions, it is often much less than the fees associated with on-site maintenance.
Worldwide Accessibility
On-site servers can accrue additional costs, or technical incompatibility, when accessed from other locations. With a cloud database solution, your information is easily available anywhere.
Security
Any time you rely on a third-party vendor, you open yourself up to additional security concerns. But, as cloud computing methods and providers vary, so do security qualifications. Several methods of cloud computing, specifically private and hybrid, provide stricter security qualifications to meet the needs of organizations with sensitive data concerns. SWICKtech’s cloud consulting services can help you determine which method of cloud computing will suit your security needs.
Scalability
As your business grows, updating on-site server technology can be incredibly pricey. Cloud computing is less expensive to scale as your needs increase.
Disaster Recovery
Setting up additional disaster recovery efforts within an on-site server can be pricey. With cloud computing, data recovery efforts are implemented at a much lower price.
Cloud Consulting Services
As a leading provider of business cloud migration services for Milwaukee and Chicago areas, SWICKtech understands every company and organization has different needs when it comes to cloud storage and security.
To accommodate these needs, we offer two primary options for business cloud storage: managed private clouds and Microsoft cloud services.
While both of these services offer enhanced flexibility, agility and efficiency, the SWICKtech managed private cloud provides increased security over the Microsoft Cloud Services as the SWICKtech cloud is completely private, and does not share cloud space with others in Microsoft’s global datacenters.
The SWICKtech Cloud is also actively monitored and managed by SWICKtech business IT specialists who ensure maximum privacy, performance and stability is maintained 24/7.
