SureBridge Cloud Services The cloud conversation has been around in a commercial sense since 2006 with the release of Amazon’s EC2 platform allowing small businesses and individuals to “hire” data servers on which to run their own applications. Since then, the conversation has become an avalanche of industry terms and jargon, with rarely enough time to pause and take in the conversation before it changes path.
“People don’t want the power station, they want the light” - Stephen Fry (referencing Thomas Edison) The “Cloud” is a mechanism for performing every day computing practices (eg email and applications, back-ups, and archiving data) that are powered by servers located in a data centre, that are leased, rather than purchased outright. You pay for what you use and have no responsibility to maintain the hardware.
Benefits of SureBridge Cloud Services
• Full service delivery from migration, to setup, testing, and management. You don’t have to do a thing. • Move as much or as little of your IT as you require, be it just email or your backups, or you entire IT operations. Baby steps, or all-in. Up to you. • The Cloud model is an operational expense offering greater tax advantages than owning equipment outright. Music to the CFO’s ears. • The SureBridge data centres are World Class facilities, based in Brisbane (CBD and outer Brisbane). No smoke and mirrors here. Physical, local facilities that you can visit.
SureBridge Managed Services SureBridge has been providing Managed Services to businesses of all sizes since the 90’s.
