b2ap3_thumbnail_security_of_private_cloud_400.jpgWith cloud computing on the rise in the business environment, it’s becoming more clear that organizations need to know what type of cloud solution will best benefit their business model. With the private cloud gaining much attention, it’s important to know what attracts businesses to it. Why should your business implement a private cloud solution, and how should you go about doing so?


The private cloud is an infrastructure that businesses usually host either in-house or remotely through a managed provider. This cloud system is managed and maintained by either in-house technicians, or by outsourced IT professionals like Infradapt. Either way, you need someone who has the skills to maintain your new cloud solution, and this depends on how much control you want over your cloud. This is the main idea behind going with a private cloud; you get more responsibility, but you achieve far greater control than you would if you were to take advantage of the public cloud.

Without further ado, here are three questions to consider before committing to a private cloud solution.

Can Your In-House Staff Handle It?
Before implementing a private cloud solution, you should be absolutely certain that you have personnel on-hand that are ready to take on the responsibility. Integrating and maintaining a private cloud solution is knowledge-intensive, and you’ll need dedicated technicians available to handle your in-house cloud demands. If you’re not sure whether or not your team has the time or skills necessary for such an implementation, you can still take advantage of a private cloud. Infradapt can host and maintain your cloud solution for you, and our technicians are more than happy to help you with any of your cloud computing needs.

Is Data Security a Top Priority?
A good business owner should realize that their data’s security is a top priority, and it’s one of the biggest points of contention when choosing your cloud infrastructure. Compared to the public cloud, which is hosted and maintained by the provider, the average business owner who utilizes a private cloud has the freedom to integrate secondary security measures if they so desire. Even though the public cloud is relatively secure (or at least it’s expected to be), this plays into the fact that a business needs more control over security than the typical Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive user.

How Much Control Do You Need?
Data control is another pivotal pain point that the business owner needs to consider before implementing a cloud solution. Having so much control over your data is a good thing, but only if you’re absolutely sure that you need to have complete and total control. By hosting your data in-house, you can know with certainty that it’s in your hands, rather than in the hands of some third-party cloud provider.

If any of these pain points seems to be an issue for your organization, you should know that a hybrid cloud solution presents many of the same benefits of a private cloud without sacrificing functionality. As reported by Processor magazine, “It’s also safe to assume that hybrid cloud environments will advance as both private cloud infrastructure and public cloud offerings share the market.” You can invest in a hybrid cloud with confidence, knowing that your organization’s infrastructure will be solid for years to come.

Today’s cloud computing technology shouldn’t be daunting, especially with experts like Infradapt standing at your side. To discuss how your organization can fully leverage your business technology solutions, give us a call at 800.394.2301.

Why the Cloud is the Best Option For Your Data’s Backup Policy

b2ap3_thumbnail_cloud_backup_and_security_400.jpgThe cloud is a great tool that can help your business fully leverage its technology solutions, but one of the most common problems that people associate with the cloud is that they believe it’s not nearly as secure as a private in-house IT network.

4 Ways the Cloud Can Help Your Business Reach Greater Heights

4 Ways the Cloud Can Help Your Business Reach Greater Heights

b2ap3_thumbnail_cloud_computing_great_for_you_400.jpgCloud computing is sweeping the technology industry, and it’s easy to see why. It provides an immense versatility and productivity that we could only have dreamed of ten years ago. However, some organizations are still hesitant about implementing this game-changing concept into their technology infrastructure. One of the most common reasons is because businesses don’t actually know what the cloud can do for them.


Of course, you should always consider how new technology could affect your existing IT infrastructure before making a decision about it. To help you make an educated decision concerning the future of your business’s cloud strategy, take this moment to learn more about how the cloud can benefit your organization’s computing needs.

The Cloud Helps You Manage Growth
One of the key components of a cloud computing infrastructure is the administrator’s ability to facilitate growth. A good cloud will help your business stay flexible with scalable solutions designed to accommodate your specific needs at the time. These custom solutions can be integrated for use during periods when you experience hiring spurts or fast/slow business periods.

The Cloud Increases Productivity
Another key benefit of the cloud is being able to deploy applications across your network to make them easily accessible to all of your employees. For example, hosting your productivity suite, like Microsoft Office or Google Drive, on the cloud would be one way to increase your productivity. The cloud has a knack for increasing accessibility to critical systems that are imperative to everyday operations.

The Cloud Reduces Operational Costs
Integrating new technologies is a huge up-front cost that can break a budget that’s unprepared for it. The cloud is scalable enough to allow businesses to pay for some services, like software solutions, on a monthly basis. This prevents organizations from shelling out hefty expenses for the programs required to do their job properly. By hosting your IT infrastructure in the cloud, you can reduce the energy costs of operating this equipment, and consolidate your systems to make them easier to manage.

The Cloud Enhances Mobility
Cloud infrastructures are located online, so employees can access programs or information stored in the cloud. This helps employees be productive as often as possible on their own devices, even while on the road or while working remotely. Employees can work anywhere, anytime, be it from the comfort of their own home or while abroad on a business trip.

The cloud offers businesses an invaluable asset: knowing that their technology is flexible enough to meet their specific needs in a shifting environment. If you’re ready to move to the cloud, or if you just want to know more about it, give Infradapt a call at 800.394.2301.
