The combination of public cloud computing resources with on-premises computing assets and associated private clouds is referred to as a hybrid cloud environment. Public cloud providers make these services available to anyone who wants to use or purchase them. Cloud services may be free or sold on-demand, allowing customers to pay only per-usage for the CPU cycles, storage, or bandwidth they consume. They are broadly categorized as software-as-a-service (SaaS), platform-as-a-service (PaaS), and/or infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS). Customers may opt to supplement or replace traditional on-premises components with equivalent “as a service” offerings. The advantages of on-demand, subscription-based offerings include: Agility/flexibility – rapid deployment of development and software testing environments, and production environments with on-demand provisioning and re-sizing Rapid elasticity – allows up and down scalability when needed, eliminating the need to maintain additional infrastructure that may only be utilized under peak workloads Measured services – cloud services are metered, which means usage is measured and one only pays for services actually utilized, allowing an organization to adjust its IT resources based on load changes and business needs Derive Technologies is a NYC-based, national & worldwide provider of innovative cloud, data center, virtualization, mobility, collaboration, networking, security, managed services & IT purchasing solutions for 20 years.
