Dangers Businesses Face And How Cloud Computing Helps ThemFeatured PR

Businesses face a number of dangers due to events outside of their control and cloud computing helps alleviate, and in many cases eliminate, these dangers.
Shelton, CT, United States of America (sardnews.org) 08/02/2013
Cervalis, Connecticut's leading provider of cloud computing and colocation services, wants to show companies how cloud computing helps them before and during times of uncertainty. Businesses face a number of challenges they cannot control, such as natural disasters, cybercrime, and unforeseen internal circumstances.

Cloud computing can be of great help in situations like these, and Cervalis has recently released an article, "How Cervalis Group Helped Some Customers Through Hard Times," to demonstrate specific situations where its business continuity and disaster recovery services were able to help customers avoid catastrophic data and productivity loss.

In particular, the company's ability to help customers make it through Hurricane Irene in 2011 and Hurricane Sandy in 2012 proved particularly useful. In addition to natural disasters, however, Cervalis' cloud computing services helps businesses with difficult situations such as fires and cybercriminal attacks.

While keeping a company's data protected and ready to return to normal operation at the drop of a dime is important, data center hosting also helps with planning ahead in case operations need to expand. The company notes that a multiple server-based environment allows a company to scale, but only up to a certain point. At some point in time, space becomes too crowded and heat is a gigantic problem. When infrastructure is remotely outsourced, these problems are removed entirely. When businesses take that long-term view, they save themselves large amounts of money and gain an edge on the competition.

In most cases, data centers cost less for businesses than building and maintaining their own internal computer network. This isn't always the case, but the other benefits - remote storage of data, high security, and ability to get back online quickly in the event of a disaster, far outweigh the risks of not using cloud hosting. Companies interested in disaster recovery services should contact Cervalis at the phone number listed below.
