Why should you choose cloud infrastructure over on-premise infrastructure?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Switch from large capital expenses to reasonable variable expenses<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since there is no infrastructure to setup, there are no large upfront expenses. You pay what for you consume over time on the cloud. Depending on what you choose, the prices can vary but generally the price is competitive is major cloud platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Get access to infinite resources<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The infrastructure and resources available on major cloud platforms (AWS, Google, Azure) are massive. This allows customers to have access to almost infinite amount of resources. The only limit is your ability to pay for the infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>No need to guess capacity<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a cloud your infrastructure can scale vertically or horizontally based on logical parameters you define. Therefore you don&#8217;t need to guess or procure excess capacity. As the load increases, your infrastructure can expand. When the need is no longer there, your infrastructure can scale down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Increase agility and speed<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can setup and run your infrastructure within minutes. Then discard it at build a different one if like. It take minutes to setup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>No need to setup, maintain, or run a physical data center<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no need for a physical data center. This relieves you of many costs including the cost of hiring staff to maintain the physical infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Have global reach in minutes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can deploy your applications across the globe in minutes. Major cloud platforms have global presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are thinking about moving to the cloud but are not sure, then the this short post can help you decide.
