To Cloud or to Co-locate: Where to Move Your Data Center?

摘要

For any business enterprise choosing the right server infrastructure is critical to business success. Yet with the increase in the trends towards adoption of cloud computing by organizations, the IT infrastructure landscape is undergoing a major transformation. This trend calls for an open debate on the best direction that an organization can take with respect to its IT infrastructure in 2015 and beyond. Having said this, the two key approaches for organizations that want to move away from on-premise data centers include either the more traditional relocation or the increasingly popular virtualized cloud route. Both of these approaches can provide suitable solutions depending on an enterprise's specific requirements and can help achieve the objectives as well as derive business value.
