Today, businesses have many different options to consider when choosing cloud computing solutions. The most common cloud solutions are still the public and private cloud, but there are increasing options for multiclouds, hybrid clouds, and even on-premises cloud computing.
On-Premises Cloud Computing
An on-premises cloud computing solution is a form of a private cloud. A private cloud simply means that only one tenant (the business) controls the computing environment. However, at the same time, the company using on-premises cloud solutions has the server on-site, not at a data center as with hosted private clouds.
The benefit to this is the company has complete access to the server and can install and deploy any security measures they require. The potential drawback is the cost involved with an on-premises server. This cost includes the initial purchase, the networking and server hardware, the necessary internet connections, and the power and cooling systems in the dedicated server room.
There is also a risk with the on-premises server that any disaster could damage the server or servers, and all data and programs would be lost. Even with routine backups and outside disaster recovery services, it will take time to replace and deploy new equipment.
Hybrid Cloud Computing
Hybrid cloud computing solutions offer the lower cost of the public cloud for non-sensitive data, while a private cloud component houses sensitive data or programs. The private and public sides of the cloud can share information using end-to-end encryption and a variety of security layers for safe, effective, and secure operations.
Companies can use their on-site server as part of the hybrid cloud model. The on-site server is typically associated with the private side of the cloud with connectivity to the public side. Contact Business Name. For more information!
