Cloud Overview
Since the economy has become global, it is now made up of a series of connected businesses and computers all over the world. Is it not time that your business’ infrastructure steps on par with the global economy?
Cloud solutions result in your business being instantly globalised. Moreover, cloud also offers your business the capability to place its information technology (IT) platform, infrastructure and software on a series of servers.
Cloud eliminates the need for your business to have expensive servers located on your premises that are costly to acquire and maintain. Also with the traditional method of having servers located on premises, if anything would happen to them, it would result to a major disruption to your business’ communication, products and services.
Another comparison, the execution of updates to a cloud network is much more efficient and effective. Because updates and upgrades can be executed from any part of the world and managed by the professionals that have the abilities perform the tasks required.
Therefore, cloud will not only lower your costs, they will also globalise your businesses network and tackle market changes with greater ease and efficiency.
The three levels of cloud which Purecloud works on are:
Cloud Software
- Cloud software is the top layer of the network, it is made up of the applications that the platform manages and operates. With cloud software you can implement business wide updates and upgrades rapidly and access your applications form any location online.
Cloud Platform
- Cloud platform is the middle layer, basically it is the operating system of the cloud network. The platform will deliver cloud software over the internet, becoming the key to your business applications.
Cloud Infrastructure
- Cloud infrastructure is the foundation level that sits as the base to everything in the cloud network. The cloud infrastructure is the physical storage and security of the network. With a strong infrastructure, applications delivered over the cloud will operate to their full potential.
